Not bad
OofIma say this case is awesomeBut you have to put everything together yourselfGet a shorter graphics card it says it can support over 300mm but they dont include room for your psu cablesI have a smaller than average psu and no room for wiresWas missing some parts but they got back to me asapDO NOT USE normal pc fans go low pro and make sure to mount them all the way up from the moboSpeaking of mobo dont use a micro atx as all my lower pins are covered and even with small fans i still cant really use themSo an itx would be better fresh buildOther than yhat figure it out lolIm going to get a lowpro gpu as the 1080 im using from an old build is just way to bigAll in all not a bad mini case for the priceBe prepared though as this is not for starters

ALL GOOD but beware of Video card power location
having built a number of computers there is a MAJOR chance you will need to modify something. you get a L shape power supply cable if the power supply fan faces the front of the case it cant suck in air to cool it so you have to have it face the mother board so you have to squash the given L shape cable to get the power supply in. Next the case is so thin I bet the handle will bend the top so I didn't use it. Next you have to screw ALL fans/hard drives to the honeycomb mesh top/bottom/rear and they don't all line up square for the different sizes so they sit at small angles. The inside width is 2 ssd side by side IF ONLY THE MESH HOLES LINED UP to do it but NO...rrrrrr... RECOMEND slim fans for the bottom, regular fans work for back & top. MAJOR problem is if your vid card power cables are on the top (going down from the glass like my rx 580 red devil or 580 fatmax) vs the back of the card they hit the glass so it wont close I had to drill the hole bigger and use mother board mounting offsets to lift the glass higher and they cables still touch so hope you want a smaller card or the power is located somewhere else. ITS REAL GLASS so beware. The bars across the top of the power supply bend with ease a baby using it to stand up might bend them YA its that easy. The dust mesh screens are useless. they attach with junk magnets on 2 sides only NOT all 4 so any screws used for fans/HD better be small or they over power the magnets, if on the bottom the dust screen just falls off. For a small case it rocks there is nothing better at this size only 2 problems are mounting the power supply and size / location of power of your vid card if these 2 check out I would get it.

A true DIY case
Holy. What is this case? Don't get me wrong you get what you pay for with flimsy metal. But usually even in some other cases from different countries you get some form of instruction manual to help you put together the pc. Not this case! This case had no instruction manual. And if you don't have the patience to figure out that the power supply is suppose to suspend and also lock into place with only 2 screws and lock it in with 2 hooks your not going to have a good time. Also whoever designed not having airflow in the front is crazy. Even though a regular atx psu can fit I'd 100% advice to get a sfx psu or build a itx build. But if your going to do that might as well get a fractal terra. Also you want to put 3 120mm case fans to help with airflow? Well that's too bad. You need something smaller for that back fan and if you decided to put a big case fan your not going to have room. Also don't think you can do any housekeeping in this case. You just try to wire it the best you can and shove the rest in the corner so the gpu can hold it. No dual chambers here. No back panel either. Also if you have a fat gpu you cant put fans on the bottom to increase airflow. So my suggestion is get a 2 fan card or a low profile. Also power supply extension is annoying to place when your trying to align it with the back end hooks.But why 3 stars if it sounds like a 1 star case? Because with all the caveats and price.. it's still clean to build in. And you can install a handle to make it on portable. It's annoying to build in but if you are patient and can build in it for the cheap do. And if you don't make the same mistakes I make this is going to be good bang for the buck.For those who care my specsRyzen 5 4500Stock amd cooler (replacing with a small form factor fan)Waiting on replacement moboGigabyte 3070 8gb700w psu

Flimsy and awful metal, exploding glass
The metal is so flimsy that it bends by pushing on it with one finger. This provided no support to the acrylic in shipping, which naturally exploded because of it. Save your money, buy literally anything else. A cardboard box would probably provide a similar amount of support to your PC and doesn't run the risk of getting broken glass everywhere.

$40 dollars YES, $50 starts getting iffy
I have two of the V2s. I paid $40 for one and the other $50.At $40 I can easily recommend it to friends cause it feels like a bargain price.At $50 I might start looking elsewhere. Here's why:- PSU Switch Cutout Hole at top of case... its ugly and on wrong side. Recommend fixing this in a V3 if it happens. Could be correct side if front of case had any ventilation holes. Despite which side is correct, it's still ugly. I would rather use small tool to flip the PSU switch via the small ventilation holes.- Missing screws for the feet. I had to find compatible ones from my own collection.- Crap dust / air filters- PSU mounting... you will need to bring your own adapter if you have SFX PSU (many SFX PSU's include this but some do not)- Glass Side Panel... mounting is sketchy AF. Tightening metal screws on glass... c'mon... we need some rubber spacers or something. Don't over tighten or you may shatter your glass. Honestly, you should sell a mesh side panel... PLEASE.- Did not fit Peerless Assassin Mini 120... its fan hits the glass and makes the side panel glass unable to sit flush.
