I'd really love to see you do a custom loop in one of these. I feel like this kind of "showy" case is meant for something like that, and who better to do it than the king of water cooling?
Agreed.
"king of watercooling" btw.
Agreed, I would love to see a dual custom loop with him watercooling the CPU & GPU
“King of Watercooling” relax. While I love Jay for his very educational videos on watercooling, there are more talented modders out there that have made some incredible rigs. Look up Declassified Systems, Designs by IFR, GGF Events, Praetex Designs (Formerly of Alex of Bit-tech) just to name a few
*Agreed with the original commentator, hit the nail on the head.*
Thank you so much for reviewing our case Jay! We really loved your video 💛 We appreciate the support!
Any plans in making a similar but smaller case? Love the design but the size is just too big for my needs
Could you please create one slightly taller so a 60mm rad can be installed in the top. Thanks
I love the design of the case; it doesn't fit my needs though for the below reasons:
1. This if for ATX showcase, but not doesn't support enthusiast eATX fully; that's a concern.
2. The vertical riser is 3x space; as noted for RTX 4090 it's up to 4 slots with air coolers which would put it up against the glass or too large entirely. That's a non-starter unless you're using an AIO or custom loop cooler, which defeats the need for vertical anymore other than looks because the weight/sagging issue is mitigated.
3. The riser cable is PCIe 4x. I realize that's likely a limit of component availability currently, but unless you offer an upgrade later it'll be outdated by next gen. most likely.
4. The back is fully mesh, so you can't create a real push / pull, positive pressure, etc. flow. The back needs to be mesh at the bottom for 120mm fans across, then solid up to the top. That way the bottom pulls in, and the top and back pulls out, and you have a directed flow.
Again, great looking case; love the design, and especially the bottom grid feature. Just missing on a few key items.
Love the case! I just wish the front connectors/power were on the top of the case rather than the bottom :) I like to have my PS under the desk & this means I have to finger the floor lol
Is there a mirrored version where the whole frame is flipped ?
Gamersnexus: "It's like an aquarium where GPUs go to die."
Hyte: "FUCKING BRILLIANT!"
Hyte is a pc builder ?
@@Fee.1 no but they’re a child company of IBuyPower meant specifically for just creating things like custom cases away from the IBuyPower pc builder monicker
Their review was negative?
I was talking to one of the guys from a custom PC builder in my area regarding compatibility issues on the website putting a 4090 into a Y60. A lot of back and forth over which case I was referring to. Eventually, the dude just shouts, the Aquarium? Yes, my Dude. The Aquarium!
That would be an awesome "aquarium" build. Custom loop and some kind of aquatic theme would look so good inside that case.
The shape and size reminds me of a glass tank already so it'd be easy (in my imagination) to accentuate the terrarium/aquarium feel.
Yes This! First thing I thought of when he unboxed it
And put some wittle fishies in there 🥺
Do it Jay! 🤩 🐟🐠🐡🐠🐟
My thought exactly
It could be a sick mineral oil build with those fake robo fish
i love this case, currently building a fish tank themed build in it, as a marine biology student this is the best case to get ahaha
Did a similar theme in a manta a few years back. It was the rounded window for me.
Please show your build on youtube
SAME!!! Bio students rise up 😤💪💪
Did you see the one Robeytech did?
I was just thinking it looked like an aquarium.
This case looks neither outdated nor futuristic, it looks modern. Very lovely!
I thought transparent cases stopped being cool with the Game Boy in the 90's...
Just kidding, it looks nice 🙂
I was so disappointed when i got to the point where its only half height expansion, up until that point I was fully sold on buying this case, i hope they come out with a version the forgoes the vertical orientation and provides full height slots instead
Same. Had just made my mind up to get an O11D-Evo, saw this video and was hooked, but then got to the expansion slots and was immediately put off this case.
That and lack of drive space for me.
It's a gamer case, made so you can put your several-kg mahoosive GPU into a configuration that won't break the motherboard or the card.
The other option is vertical, and I have a Tower 900 case that does that, but that has its own finicky bits, what with being generally huge and having its back panels under the top lid.
Totally agree! This would be a show-stopper for me!!
Vertical mounting options are cool... But they aren't at all cool when it's the only way.
When Jay first pulled the plastic off the case my first thought is that it looks like a fish tank. As far as storage, one can always get a couple 3.5" drive bay adapters. Those adapters typically allow for two 2.5" drives, so in theory one could mount four 2.5" SSDs.
I thought the same thing! I'm sure that we will get to that point sooner or later lol
Robeytech built a functional fishtank in one of these! Quite a fun video lol
no adapter needed!! those drive bays already support 2x2.5" SSD each. There are mounting screw holes on the sides of the sleds. so each sled can either have 1xHDD or 2xSSD.
Do people really use it that much anymore? I mean you can get huge m.2 drives and most decent atx mobo's have 2+ slots. and then you still have those two sleds for additional storage. I'd say you have plenty.
I actually was going to ask if this looked like one of those dresser top style fish tanks from way back to anyone else haha. At least I’m not the only one.
Manufacturer: "What should we do with all these spare fish tanks we have?"
Marketing: "The PC market is so hot right now."
yup! i figured buddy was watching his fish while pondering his latest design
Thanks for the video review of this case. Very uniquely shaped case, almost reminds me of a fish tank. I’m not an expert when it comes to comp builds but i wouldn’t mind trying to build in this case. This case would definitely look cool with the water cooling piping, maybe the pipes forming the shape of the case, flowing to the water cooler. Can’t wait to see what you’ll add into this case.
I wish it didnt have the tinted glass, its like a fish tank so let it be clear glass
Reminded me of a fish tank also.
Fish Tank was my first thought as well
It so looks like a fish tank!
They were doing so well. I was practically sold on this case and then the PCIe mountings came up.
Looks great, but would prefer to not choke my gpu with the side panel
I just built a Y60 system. It’s an incredible case. The whole reason I purchased it was for looks. It’s basically a gorgeous piece of furniture in my room. I no longer hide my computer, but instead show it off.
I watched your video on case cable management. It inspired me beyond my case, to all of my wall cables and peripheral cables. Hottest system I’ve ever owned, by far.
One thing I love about BeQuiet cases from the older lineup is that their drive sleds support either a 3.5" drive or two 2.5" drives...
If I was forced to, I could fit 14 drives in my case without it looking terrible...
One of the reasons I was so slow moving away from my h440
I *THINK* I saw two rows of holes for screws on each drive sled. You can also get any generic 3.5" to two 2.5" drive adapters, they're cheap depending on where you get them.
@@joshua41175 Posting from one!
I just disassemble the 2.5 SSDs and stack a bunch of them with standoffs in a 3D printed case. So much more compact
As someone running two nvme and 4 physical drives, I agree.
I'm most excited for HYTE iterating on the Revolt 3. I have the first one that I had to do several mods on to get it to a serviceable level of cooling, but I really dig the look. Please HYTE, keep working on these unique cases.
Hey! first time builder, first time commenting and I just wanna say every video you have has made me so much more confident in thinking I could build a pc. I've spent all month teaching myself about computers. I think I've come a long way because of your videos. I didn't know there were mini, mid, and full towers, I just thought some computers were bigger than others lol. I also learned from you that everything has to be tested, can't wait to get to that stage yet I haven't conjured up the bravery to starting buying yet. One day I'll push the button and start building. I hope I can show you when I'm done. In a way it will also be your build since you've taught me everything I know. Thanks again!
I think building in these cases, even if they weren’t powered on(this way you don’t have to apply thermal paste to the cpu, etc) would make these videos wayyy better. You could show us how to looks with the build and any issues or life hacks they have. Especially since there are a lot more case reviews over the last few months.
I feel like if your going through the effort of building an system for a review you might as well apply thermal paste and benchmark the cooling as well
That case will be perfect for my favorite cooling system: 50 cm panel fan, more commonly referred to as a room fan propped against a computer.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!! The front IO connector as just a single plug... I've been building computers for 20+ years and it has always been the same since ATX std came out in the mid 90's!!! I hate putting front IO cables together as they all go in the same spot and I no longer even need to look at MB book to get the pin out...
3:43 I love the fact that Phil knows his stuff when it comes to computer parts. It's not rare to see someone edit in b-roll over the host pointing at specific things, but it usually has nothing to do with the voiceover at that point in time. Thank you Phil for putting in b-roll that perfectly showed what Jay was talking about, allowing us to see it better than we would with the main cam.
Guys I found Phils alt account
@@AndreasRavnestad Just thought I'd highlight it since I noticed and had enough energy to leave a comment for a change.

@@phenomanII yeah, we understand Phil. Great editing
Low profile expansions slots are a deal breaker. I really liked this case too. Finally something other than an 011 dynamic layout and low profile expansion.
lack of places to properly mount storage is another bad one
@@nostrum6410 bruh its 2022 why dont you have a storage server or run aset of 6tb hdd along side your m.2?
@@dabadcod4 because thats dumb
@@dabadcod4 This. Having shit tons of storage in a single computer has been a bad idea for a while.
@@nostrum6410 Lack of places? There's the m.2 slots on your motherboard and two hard drive trays on the other side that also fit 2.5" drives. If you need more than that get a server
The fact that the front panel IO are grouped as one solid section is by far the most attractive thing about this product for any novice looking to jump in. I remember my first time building when I got to installing the front IO I was super cautious and trying to peer into the case with an phone flashlight trying to make out the polarities. It would have been at that time that I wished I had got a case like this for that specific feature. More companies should look to follow that one small feature as it makes it a selling point all on its own.
It honestly looks really cool, I like it’s shape a lot
Hey... Thanks
You look lovely too
Wow dude creepy much??
@@nemtudom5074 r/AngryUpvote
I pre ordered one these cases and I absolutely love it! I should’ve gotten white but the black case makes it look way more classy! I would totally recommend using the be quiet light wings in this case!
how many fans is consider quiet & see build from Paul's hardware's RUclips channel did one over ~2 weeks ago!
White could be classier, but it appears they don't have a proper white case. It's just white trim pieces. Really disappointing. If it was full white, I'd be interested in swapping from the 011D.
It's amazing how far PCs have come over the years. I used to build PCs back in the middle 80's. The days when we still had to manually set IRQ request lines, and memory chips got put on cards, then plugged into the MB. I've been watching your channel for a few weeks as I'm considering building an ultimate watercooled machine for myself, a daunting task (I'm in the UK). Thanks for all the content.
How is that daunting? You're on an island there's plenty of water.
I’m really curious about thermals for this case. That 45 degree angle has to definitely affect airflow from the side vent. Hope Gamer Nexus tests it out
Should be better than the OL11's right angle. Gamers Nexus generally only tests with stock/included fans so you'll need to look elsewhere for ideal configuration comparison.
OC3D has done a thermals review
A 45 in airflow is not too bad but it creates alot of turbulence, which i guess can ensure theres no "pooling"of hot air anywhere in the case. 90° in airflow cuts the flow in half if not worse, so 45 is for sure better.
Look for Tech Tesseract YT channel, they reviewed and did thermal tests on this case. Was fine even with a big air cooler.
@@flepgg he did a piss poor job. If he's getting 85c with all those fans going, he fucked up something.
I think that a lot of thought went into the case. I was particularly impressed by the single-connector approach to the power/reset/HDD LED headers. That irks me every time that I have to connect them to a motherboard. For my own use, it's massively wide. Regardless, I think that this could be a winner, but we'll have to wait and see. The buyers always determine that.
Most useful motherboard accessory I've ever seen - one of the multiple motherboards I've used had a solid block female-to-male connector you plugged the case cables into, and then you plugged the connector onto the motherboard header pins (I think it was an early 2000's Asus AMD motherboard)
I never use the header for the hdd activity lights, sometimes i wont even use the hdd button light if its too bright. So if theyd force me to have that on if be annoyed.
And tbh the split io headers arent as hard to plug in as ppl make it out to be.
@@richardhockey8442 Gigabyte boards (at least the 2 mid-range boards I've bought the last couple years) have those. Along with good BIOS, solid PCIE connectors, temp sensor headers etc. Stuff that Asus doesn't give you unless you buy a $500+ board.
I just got my Y60, with a RX7900txt. Everything fit PERFECT. Very beautiful case. (White & Black w/ RGB lights set to white light to make a vintage TV/Aquarium)
My Cooler Master Storm Sniper Elite case that I had bought back in 2011 had a solid front panel I/O connector. It's just strange that it's not the norm in my opinion, but every ASUS mobo I ever bought came with a Q-Connector to make connecting the front panel easier. That case was all about quiet cooling via airflow as well, with 3 200mm fans in the front, side, and top, and a single 120 in the back. Honestly, that case was a decade ahead of its time.
You can install 2x 2.5" drives in a single drive sled, kinda like shingled together, so 4x 2.5" drives altogether. So, 2x 3.5", 4x 2.5", or 1x 3.5" and 2x 2.5". Still seems fairly limited compared to other cases like it, but not as restrictive as it might seem at first glance.
I'm late to the party on this one but I actually really want to build in this one, I have a large corner desk for my work/gaming area with my tower in the corner. I feel like this case would look beautiful placed there, with the front "header" being at the bottom on that 45 part would probably be very convent. Once these get back in stock I will probably be moving my current build into one of these.
im just gonna mention the "convent" typo quick and say based on the description this would probably be good looking tower for your setup, though the desk may be a little messy with the corner wires coming out to your accessory's
Seen a few videos on this case already but any time I see Jayz post I know it's worth the click :)
I really like the look of this and the amount of thought that seems to have gone into it. Only place I personally think they missed a trick on are those low profile expansion slots to fit the vertical mount. What I think they could have done is make that section of the back detachable and provide a replacement that takes away the vertical mount but has full width expansion. In the long run it could be potentially cheaper than production runs of 2 separate models and keep those customers that need the expansion slots. They may have considered it though and maybe the cost had them go over the price point they were aiming for. Still, really nice looking case. I'd love to see a build in it 😊
Good point, with the way they did it it basically requires a vertical GPU mount. And for any other full height cards.
Which reminds me of cases where you could slide out the motherboard tray at the back and mount the board outside the case. Just like the drive slots in this case. Having the tray done that way would mean the customer could just slide them in and out.
tbh, it was the deal breaker for me. Love the look and quality of this case, but expansion is one of my top requirements and I don't need the extra effort to find low profile.
@@silversong4VR There's always the RX 6400. lol
I just got this case for my new build 10/20/23 "5 years since my last build" and I absolutely LOVE this case. I have a Gig Areo 4080 in it, & playing starfield at max settings, i get to 72C and it stops. Eventhough the 4080 is about 1/2 inch from the glass. The fans on the bottom really help pull cold air right up through the fins of the 4080. AMD 7900x with a Asus rog strix X670-E-A MB. All white build and x8 corsair rgb fans.with a Corsair H150i 360 AIO at the top. Best rig I have ever built and This case makes it look so goooood! So worth the 200$ price point. Thanks for the vid. 👍👍
I love how much space it has, and how sturdy it is, I might need to buy one and transfer my pc into it, so cool
It looks so much like an aquarium. It really makes me want to seal it and do a mineral oil PC
Amen on the front panel connector! I know it’s a small thing, but it’s one of the most frustrating parts of a build, IMO
This case looks like an aquarium 🙂
that's what I thought too. 😂😂😂😂
It seemed mostly fine until the expansion slots, just a bad decision.
And those openings seem really closed with that huge amount of plastic, would be fun to see Tech jesus reaction to that.
Yeah... Those are like DVD roms lol. Not many use them besides the GPU.
@@spankbuda3084 Sound cards, capture cards etc. A lot of folks still use those.
You don't have to vertical mount the gpu.
I hate the fact that you are forced to use a vertical mount for the GPU in the first place. That's *optional* on most cases. Why force it?
That alone is reason enough for me to not buy this.
the whole case is full of openings, I don't think air flow is going to be restricted.
While lots of room for air to get in and out of a case can be a good thing, having slots or holes adjacent to fans can result in the air simply moving around the fan in a short-circuit rather than through the chassis. I often use hard foam sheet to blank off surplus apertures in PCs that I build to help ensure that the air goes in and comes out only where intended. That way, all of the air that is moved by the fans has a chance to cool down the hot bits.
the intros r always hilarious. they always put smile on my face. hope u r all doing well, Jay & the crew.
I was so very close grabbing one of these for my build but the short expansion slots was a deal breaker for me as I need to run two 5 port USB expansion cards. Really sweet looking case though.
Needing 10 additional USB ports is making me curious, why lol.
I was also considering swaping to this case from my O11D-XL, but the low profile expansion slots made this an easy no.
Looks like I will likely be using a now-old-stock Thermaltake Core x71 for a bigger dual loop on the next build....

@@whitedartonpt they make 4-port Low Profile expansion cards, so you could theoretically do 4+4+2 if you need 10

This thing also comes in red which looks pretty sweet. I know red is pretty cliche, and can go against a lot of RGB builds, but they use a deeper red that's pretty sharp.
Oooh I want the red one :D unless its too expensive for me. (so far they don't ship it to my country... so too expensive)
@@hokkaidowolf3 I think it looks pretty sick. Unfortunately it's $200 USD which you get some pretty good cases for that amount of money.
I was in love with this case but it came out after I had already bought my budget one for $70. After seeing this teardown I love it even more. Considering the cable management that took days and having to remove my basement 3.5/2.5' HD tray (was basically forced to ditch using my 1TB HDD, which is fine considering I have an 512gb NVME for Windows and a 1TB sata for games) in addition to some of the other issues I had with my current case (It looks clean where it matters for the most part but I wish it had cable gromits or however it's spelled) I can appreciate what they did with this as far as cable management and the input panel connectors.
I also like the fact that you guys did more of a tear down on this case instead of showing it off and just building in it so we could see more of the basics of what it has to offer. If I happened to somehow win or just have the money to get it even though my build is budget I would rebuild in this one and ditch the other case. Of course as I got better parts they'd have to go in this one. I do love the design and I think it would be cool if they did eventually make a more "budget" version or even a microatx version if possible. I also think that having the vertical gpu mount as optional would be better.
Hyte has a great sense of humor. Before the embargo, they made a fish tank out of the case in the Robeytech stream. They also unveiled 3080 Flounder Edition
It looks like a fishtank to me. I could imagine some insanely *cool* aquarium type build themes with it
I was thinking the same thing.
Jay, thanks for always being you man. I always come back because of your consistency.
I have had a similar case for 7 years now. It is not as stylish, but it is similarly wide, with the PSU on its own isolated compartment in one side, a bay for 6 SSDs, a bay for 3 HDs or DVD/Blu-Ray drives in one compartment, and another bay for 2 more hot-swap HDs on the other side. It has plenty of ventilation and room, and I love it. If I ever replace it, it would be with the one in the video.
I would love to see a build in this case! Looks pretty cool
I've got this case, and I freaking love it! A lot like the corsair 5000x in that it's a CHONKER to work around being thats its as widely proportional as the 5000x is tall. Overall 100% recommended

@@thomasowens720 Got it off Amazon
@@TheBinklemNetwork The cable management on the back and the proximity to the motherboard tray makes cabling fun for some reason 😂 The worst part is the built in PCI bracket, since I didn't have a tiny screw driver and its mounted down with different sized screw. Having to move that around was a pain for me.
Post a video
I really like the look of this case. Had this been out when I build my current system, I might have gone with it over the O11 Dynamic XL. The red version looks amazing.
I am very impressed with your taking it apart and all the air flow. I have an ThreadRipper 3rd Gen, with 24 core that runs hot when doing a render. This case will give it the air flow it needs. I will get back to you all when it is done. Amazon has the case in black for $200, I would rather have white.
I just noticed this is from April of 2022.
I love this case. About 6 months back I was considering building a custom itx enclosure with that same 3 panel design but never got very far. If they can shrink this down id love to see that. I may still pick one up for my home server to look pretty
This case is pretty cutting edge functionality. It has the look and form factor of the Lian Li 011 Dynamic, but is surely lighter and easier to move around, having a metal base instead of all glass panels. I also like the bottom intake and think it would be great for GPU cooling. Ideal for a white PC build 👍🏼
Thanks for showing it off. It's a beautiful case. If I hadn't just bought a Fractal Torrent, I'd strongly consider this case for a high airflow build.
Awesome review Jay! I’ve seen some builds in this case and love it. Paul’s Hardware did an awesome build in it and the Asus AOI GPU he used matched the angled vents perfectly. This will be the next case I build in for Ryzen 7000!!!!!!
Yeah you'll be waiting at least 2 more years for Ryzen 7000's. Lol
@@wombat5252 but at least my case will be here soon!! Lol
I would love to see a wall mount mod for it. I actually have my Themaltake Core P5 wallmounted, this Hyte would fit better due to its dimensions. And as well as the wallmount, I would stay with the custom loop.
I have actually just purchased this case two days ago and waiting for it to arrive. Snow white edition so interior is also white, all white components going into my build this time. Just saw this video and might try and throw a few pics at you guys if I ever catch you in a stream doing reactions again. Thanks for the review!
If this came out in 2019 and was sold in the UK I would have gone for this case as many motherboards these days are loaded with USB ports and sound cards aren't that massive. In regards to the solid front power connectors some motherboards include a plastic holder where you can plug in the individual connectors and you just plug that in. But yeah, they should be a solid connector by now.
Ran my gpu vertical for almost three years and I absolutely wouldn't recommend it if it doesn't have at least an inch clearance from the glass. Temps were basically at its lowest around 73/75 celsius, when I mounted it normally they dropped at least 10 degrees. Looks cool but is really bad for your card.
but shouldn't 70 degrees still be fine with a bit of headroom? What are the downsides of those 10 degrees more?
@@MoonFidelity
Yeah it should be, but the problem is that's at a standard load. So, in most US states you'll probably be fine with this.
Problem is in states like Texas/countries like mine (South Africa), you never want to hang around 70 because a hot day messes with your case intake and all of a sudden the ambient temp rises by 5 which means you can't cool it down anymore.
Pair that with a demanding title (like Path of Exile after its graphical update (resulted in a dead Asus Strix 1080ti) or Metro Exodus (resulted in a dead Aorus 2080) and very quickly you're into the 80s.
With graphics cards: don't play around. Do it right, its the most expensive thing in your build 9 times out of 10, look after it. Even if it should be ok at those temps, you don't know what it'll do at those temps, *over* 2 years.
Your point about having a gap between it and the glass is an important one. Sometimes vertical is a better option for the same reason. A while back I had a 3080 FTW3 in an O11 XL case... It's a wide case, but also a very wide card. The power cables were basically smashed against the glass when it was installed horizontally. The card blocked most of the intake from the fans below, and because the card doesn't exhaust much of the air directly (stock cooler), it just sort of made a turbulent area at the bottom of the case.
Switching to a vertical mount for the 3080 in this particular case (pun unavoidable) opened up a ton of room for airflow. I don't remember the numbers, but it was definitely double digits of temperature difference
Anyway, my point is, consider your options, watch your temps and airflow, and choose one that works rather than one that can bake cupcakes. :)
@@WhitefoxSpace True! Well, guess I'll be okay here in Germany which is kinda cold most of the time :'D
@@skyfalltech The pun was amazing, really unavoidable haha

I filled all the fan slots so 8 fans in total. Whole system runs 29-34c at idle. Definitely recommend this case!
Hey Jay. Would really appreciate seeing a basic build included in this type of video. Really helps to visualise the possibilities.
Got this case for my first ever build. I'm very happy with it. There's enough openings on the area where you mount the Motherboard that cable management was never really much of an issue (although somehow mine still feels sloppy.). I also really like the side mounted GPU thing, the bottom of my MSI GPU has all these lights on it, and now I actually get to see what they look like.
I would definitely consider it, the only negative for me is the lack of 3.5" storage bays but really that's just me having to accept I need to build a decent NAS for storage.
There are two 3.5" drive bays at the rear :) 3:30ish into the video :) - No use for a NAS, but they do exist for people who want mass local storage and not via a LAN... Whatever works :)
Yeah.. i got 4 3.5" drives, if I were to buy this expensive case I would have to buy a NAS or 2 12TB drives...and that would just be to expensive....

@@ADB-zf5zr I currently have 8 X 12TB 3.5" drives so 2 isn't gonna cut it.
@@SpyderTracks it is not reasonable to expect a PC case to have 8 full size hard drive bays. Most people today don't have ANY spinning disk drives.
Welp. I know what my AM5 build is going into now (whenever it materializes, that is). Thanks! :D
edit: back in the day the low-profile design would have turned me off, but honestly I barely use any expansion slots anymore, and the ones I do come with swappables.
Thought the same thing for a future AM5 build.
@@Neopulse00 TBH for as reasonable as the price is, I'll probably go ahead and get one sooner rather than later and just sit on it, or maybe stock it with parts I can get in the meantime.
love it. looks well designed.
I got one in black and love it. One of the big selling points for me was the power and USB port locations. Having the USB and power button on top of the case is (in my opinion) outdated on Gaming PCs since most people want to have it up on their desk to display the internals and RGB instead of tucked away underneath.
I do have a couple of gripes. The openings around the screws for the expansion slots are rather large and have no covers. If you are the type of person that doesn't keep a clean space, you will find out pretty quick that warm electronics and flashy RGB make for an attractive bug home.
Also, the upper cable grommet doesn't go quite high enough so the 24pin connector cable comes out and has to go up at an angle to connect to my Motherboard. This may vary based on what Mobo you have. Some may have a connector that is low enough to match the case better.
Oh, and the LED around the power button is white. Not bright so it's not bad, just looks kind of out of place once you have your RGB running.
Only losers on reddit put their case on their desk and take up valuable desk space
Jay, my first thought was " It looks like a fish tank". In a good way, which made me want to ask would it be possible to build a PC and have it water-proofed enough to use as a fish tank with RGB and maybe filter the water to be used for the tank? Or keep it separate? Just thought it would be a cool concept that I believe you could do with your knowledge of water cooling, PC's, etc.
You wont be able to use the same water from the fish to cool the case since it would corrode the parts. PC water cooling uses Distilled water or manufactured liquids, and distilled water is bad for fish. Only way this could possibly work is if you build a case with two isolated chambers for fish and pc like a thin aquarium that you can see the rig threw it. Even a build like this would take some fine planning to manage the evaporation of the aquarium water not to affect the pc components due to the close proximity.
@@Kray86 yeah, after I asked and then thought more about it I was thinking along the same lines. Just the thought of having fish swimming around with RGB lighting in case but with a working PC that you could still see the parts I thought was a fascinating concept but unfortunately not having the knowledge to pull it off.
I think Linus did a build similar to a fish tank once... 🤔
Where they had all the parts in an aquarium case, underwater but no fish.
@@Pumkin932 Yes they have, they used mineral oil instead of water to submerge the components safely.
@@user-op8fg3ny3j No distilled water contains no beneficial bacteria or minerals like calcium and iron. It also stunts the growth of bacteria that is needed to remove ammonia from the water. Fish can suffer from trauma in distilled water because they have semi-permeable membranes.
RO water is not the same as distilled water. RO water has added minerals with a neutral PH. You would still need to add beneficial bacteria to RO water if its a freshly started aquarium.
The one thing I like about this case over the 011 Dynamic is the placement for the power supply.
Immediately like this case a *lot*
I know that external enclosures are a thing ... but I'd like to see cases like these with options for 5.25 optical drives. But, yeah, awesome case.
A lot of us do still "multi-purpose" our gaming rigs as ripping and encoding rigs.
I know, right! I had to give up on getting a newer case for my first build bc none of the otherwise-nice ones have 5.25 bays anymore. I understand it as a business decision / result of changing priorities, but I don't like it!! This case is pretty neat otherwise, though, you're right. The ones that make airflow a priority are definitely my favorites overall.
Really interesting case! Love the plentiful airflow and unique design, but definitely not for me. 1) The low profile card restriction is a deal-breaker. 2) I still use 3.5 drives for bulk media storage. SSDs are coming down in price per MB, but you can get a 6TB HDD for ~$100 and I don't think we'll be seeing prices like that for SSDs for a while yet.
so you need more than 12tb + w/e m.2 slots your motherboard will provide? how much media do you have lol
Move the 3.5 drives into a NAS. It's much cleaner that way, and has other advantages too. Not cheap, but a lot cheaper than tens of TBs of SDD.
Thank you! I found my new chassis, loving it!
Just finished my build in one. 12600k , aorus b660 elite, aorus waterforce xtreme wb 3080 custom loop , 32gb 3200 ddr4 corsair vengeance pro, aorus 360 aio cpu, Samsung 980 nvme , and corsair hx1200i psu.
have you posted pics of it anywhere? I'd love to see how it turned out!
The amount of consideration they put into user experience and convenience alone is reason enough for me to want this case
i have this case and i must say its absolutely amazing , looks and dust management
I wonder if you could do much with a case mod for that case. I feel like its hard with cases with a ton of glass like that, but it would still be cool to see
I'm kinda imagining an aquarium-themed custom setup 🐟🐡🐠
You could do a flexible screen across the front panel and the corner. That would be kinda cool.
for those with access to the machinery, it could be possible to fabricate a panel to replace the front most glass panel, after that idk.
Looks cool, but way too big. I also like that it looks like the fan slots were designed for 140 with 120 as an option instead of the normal thing. Actually makes running 140s worth it.
Jayz, I am desperate to see you do a custom loop build in this. This case is amazing and I can't even imagine what you could pull of in here. Pull out all the stops. Water cool everything you can. I think this kind of case would work best with some sort of tube reservoir, but how do you think a distro plate in this would look?
I really like this case and I’m considering case swapping my main build, which is currently in a Corsair 110R. I realized this case is pricy though. Are there similar cases on the market for better prices?
For me, this case is too much. I have been working on making my setup smaller, more compact / clean (without loosing options) and have a lot of for whenever i can get my PC upgraded.
i like how the front io is on the 45 degree bevel which directs the ports more towards you so your not tugging so harshly on them
I'd do an aquarium build with it. Seal all the holes, pump it full of mineral oil, put heat exchangers and pumps at the back. No fans, no radiators on any of the components, just mineral oil flowing through the case and cooling everything. Then I'd put some fake fish and decorations inside, some mood lighting, maybe a model submarine.
I mean it just looks so much like an aquarium.
Had one in the cart, but then you pointed out those low profile expansion slots. Killed it for me.
Oh I just had my first build with this case and I love it put in a 3080 TI Asus OC edition it’s a little tight with breathing room against the glass but gives it enough room and temperatures don’t get too hot
They've been sold out in white since you launched this video. Mine finally delivered today!
My entire Pc building life. Almost 20 years now. I’ve always done a little research before buying a case. I saw this case. Immediately bought it. No regrets. Best case I’ve ever used
Love 3d printing been doing it for a couple years now and still can't stop
I have this case and I gotta say, its my fav case ive had. Love the design and look of it a lot
I have the case. I recommend making all rgb blue so you got the aquarium feel!
well I have this case and I transferred into it from my old case and doing so was such an easy task with this case, I love this case.
Glad I watched this .. as someone who runs a dedicated sound card .. I'd not be able to run it if I bought this case. So thanks Jay !! Shame the expansion slots are not full cause that would make this case perfect !!
This reminds me a lot of the layout of the Lian Li PC-O11 with its apparent intended right angle airflow and glass fish tank appearance. I do think this layout will show off components and RGB LEDs way better than having a bunch of fans on the front or worse, choked off fans covered in glass at the front. It's a nice compromise between airflow and showing off components.
I like this case way more than I probably should. I always appreciate simplicity.
Yes, I built in that case 6 months ago for a customer it's a very expensive opsonin in the UK £359.99 I basically show my customers my brusher of all available cases with retail prices.
I just got mine last week and it's the best case I have ever purchased! It replaces my aging Thermaltake View 37
Definitely would love to see a custom water cooled build in this case!!
I can't wait for this case to come out up in Canada. Plan to do a build in it asap.
