wow this is easily one of the best reviews I have ever seen for a case! I wish people would show everything and explain it all like you do, helps a lot when I am looking through for cases to recommend to friend's for upgrades or their first builds and I can know what is where and what they need as well anything I need to note down to do or avoid doing. Thanks!
edit: only thing I could wish for is the specs of the fans by you showing the backs of them, montech I don't believe has the fan specs listed whenever I last looked on their website.
Hi Ion, welcome to my channel, I will note on that in future case open view. Thank you for your feedback and all the best with your friend's build too.
The best presentation and technical discussion of the case I have ever seen. Every detail was thoroughly discussed and explained. Plus examples with cooling. Incredibly good work
Hi Ja Geronimmo25, welcome to my channel and I am glad you like this content. Thank you for your kind words and all the very best with your build too 😉
Absolutely brilliant in depth review, thank you so much for taking the time to put this together.
Hello babysnakes, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback. All the best with your build too 😉
Rebuilt in this case recently in the white version, and it's amazing how great it is for the money. It beats many more expensive cases. Super easy to work with and the space is excellent.
Hi Don Barron, welcome to my channel. Yup it's extremely easy to build in this case. Thank you for your feedback and I am glad you like this case 😉
the most complete review of this case on youtube, much appreciate your effort, thanks!!
Hi Lucas Medeiros, welcome to my channel and thank you for your feedback. All the best with your build too 😉
I couldn't find any review that provides more detail than this. Truly appreciate your hard work! 🔥
Hi Garin Ufie, welcome to my channel. I am glad you like my content. Thank you for your feedback and all the best with your build.😉
Thank you for explaining the fan hub! I am a first time builder and I was so confused as to which cables to plug in. 17:13
Hi Phoenix Phire, welcome to my channel, do pardon me for the late reply. Are you still confused or have this content clear your doubts?
I got it all figured out and it works great! Your video helped a lot. Thanks!
@@Phoenix-Phire24oh ok that’s good. All the best with your build.
@@KleoYanhey I have a question? Can this fan hub be controlled by software that changes rgb and fan speeds?
@@user-io4jo7od8m hi welcome to my channel yes you can.
Hi Kleo, Great review 👍 Montech are releasing some excellent bits of kit at reasonable price levels. To include all these fans and a controller at this price level is great value. Looks like the airflow across the MB would be very good with the 3 x 140mm fans up front. If your on a modest budget Montech kit is definitely worth a look at.
Hi Wayne Hughes, welcome back. Yes I was quite shock of the price point, given all the features and details they have put into their case build. I have read their brand story and indeed they are living up to what they have claimed www.montechpc.com/en/about.php#subMenu-1
Thanks for 18:51 3pin ❤
Hi 34 6bb, welcome to my channel and it's my pleasure to aid you out 😉
I was going to upgrade my air cooler to an Artic LF ii 280 until I watched this video and realized the VRM from my Gigabyte z790 Aero G would cause an issue.
I was very impressed with this case at the price point.
Hi Josh Guacamolean, welcome to my channel. Yes it is indeed a good case for this price point. So sorry to hear that you like this case but it's not possible to mount the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 at the top
the best review of the history, thanks from brazil
Hi zPier, welcome to my channel and thank you for your kind words. All the best on your build too 😉
The best breakdown yet! Thank you!!!
Hi rickshawandy, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback, greatly appreciated it. All the best with your build too. 😉
Hardware canuck review said only 4 rgb colours but i can see more here
Hi Rex Chan, welcome to my channel, there are total of 21 effects which you can toggle with the switch. you can find more info at the official page www.montechpc.com/en/products_detail.php?nid=355&s_ok2= . Thank you for your feedback and all the best with your build too. 😉
thanks for the video, extremely detailed, great job.
i've heard there's a way to top/front mount a 420mm aio, is it true? i know you showed that a 280mm aio wont fit, but maybe by modding the case? idk
i'm thinking about getting one but i have a 420mm aio, the case looks great and is at a good price
Hi sourra sas , welcome to my channel. No this case does not take 420 liquid ARO at the front, the lenght is way shorter than the 420 liquid aio radiator, though you can mount 3 x 140mm.
detailed review thanks
Hi Слесарь Леха, welcome to my channel, my pleasure and all the best with your build too 😉
Good video. Just subscribed. Just wonder how well b650e or x670e motherboards fit. Building 2 computers one using a b650e taichi lite the other using x670e taichi carrera. Montech advertises eatx, but im not sure how well it will eatx motherboards fit. This case checks a lot of boxes at a great price. If it works.
Hi Daniel Howell, welcome to my channel. It did mentioned it can house E-ATX but it will cover partial of the two rubber grommet which can be tricky to pass through your 24pin cables. Personally I would not use this case of E-ATX board.
I'm interested in knowing if the front that holds the mesh panel is metal or plastic. I ask this because if it were made of metal I could make a homemade dust filter. Thank you.
Hi Isidro Juárez, welcome to my channel. The front mesh is metal 🙂
For the argb controller, is there anyway to control the fan speed without pwm connector on motherboard. I have a older asus P5K deluxe mobo. It has 4 pin cpu fan and (4) 3 pin cha fan headers. Is there anyway to make it work with an adapter mabey?
Hi MegaBorn2 welcome to my channel. May I ask what’s the exact model of your motherboard? Let me see what I can find out on its manual is bios setup. Thank you.
Hi kleo, I’m a new fan since I’ve saw your motherboard steel legend review! Really amazing and insightful content! Congrats.
I do have a question tho:
I’m building a new pc in am5, would you recommend this montech air, the lianli 216x or a montech sky2? Paired with a 7700x, rt6700x and the steel legend mobo
Hi Tokkenn, welcome to my channel. Based on your system build specs. Either of those case will do. Kindly note, the following are my own opinion and sense of aesthetic. If you want more airflow. It will be 1st Montech Air 903 Max, 2nd Lian Li Lancool 216 and 3rd will be Montech Sky 2. If want aesthetic. I will go by Montech Sky 2, follow by Lian Li Lancool 216 then the Montech Air 903 Max. If you want best of both will be Lancool 216. Lancool 216 not only looks good, it does perform; though is just a degree or two higher than the Montech Air 903 Max. The choice is yours.
I'm planning to build with this case using ASRock Z790 Taichi Lite LGA 1700 MB, and ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 360 A-RGB. Has anyone tried this combo? The MB VRM looks to be off-set from the board edge (more than your example). Hoping the Arctic cooler will fit.....
Hi bigheffe, welcome to my channels. If you watch at 10:57 of this content. If it’s of a 360 LF2, you will be able to fit at the top with the Taichi Lite motherboard. There is enough space. You only worry if it’s or a 280 LF2. Hope this helps.
I'm going to put 3 artic 140 PST ARGB on the front of the case by connecting the ARGB cables to the hub controller on the case and the RPM to a fan connector on the motherboard. Until then I have it clear. If I put the 3 fans that come with the case at the back and on top and connect them to the hub controller and from there to an ARGB connector on my motherboard, those HP fans will be compatible with mystic light msi. I have looked on the official Montech website and it doesn't say anything about it. I have also looked at the mystic light msi compatible devices and those default fans do not appear. In conclusion, the ARGB light on those front fans will be able to work via software or in other words, how can I know what software is compatible with those HP 140 fans that come in the box? The artic 140 do appear compatible on the official msi website. Thank you and your work is excellent.
Hi Isidro Juárez, welcome to my channel and thank you for sharing your thoughts 👍 Do let us know how’s your system temperature once you have completed your build. I wish you all the best too 😉
Hi, sorry for the stupid question, but I was wondering, if I plug 12v sata connector into the rgb and fan controller + argb 5v connector from controller into my mobo, could it damage my argb fans, because they only need 5v, but I plug 12v straight from the psu aswell ?
// Very good and detailed vid tho, watched it with pleasure, keep it up!
Hi Сергей Ковалёв, welcome to my channel. It’s good to ask questions when unsure. We all learn 😉 and nope you will not damage anything as the controller has a current regulator to draw 12volt on fan pwm and 5Volts ok fan ARGB. When you plug controller to motherboard, it will determine by itself. Don’t have to worry when you plug the 12v Sata cable from the controller to the PSU. The controller as said will determine how much current is needed.
@@KleoYan got it, thanks for the fast response. My pc parts are coming soon and I'm gonna assemble a new computer, haven't built a PC in a while, there were no such things as ARGB when I did it for the first time so I just wanted to make sure that it will be just fine :)
@@d0ct0rned I see, all the best with your build. 😉
my case cable that you show at 17:29 only has two cables attached to the connector but 4 holes. I am having a hard time understanding were this needs to plug in. When i trace it back to were its connected, that connector ( on the fan/rbg ) control unit, also only has 2 cable. im not sure if it goes to motherboard and if so to which header. Thanks
Hi Apaches04 Soccer, welcome to my channel. send me an email with the picture of your controller. I will try to guide you through with pics. Thanks!
@@KleoYan Thank you for the reply! I viewed your vid a couple more times and was able to trace me cables. it turns out my cable went to the system fan plug and i found the correct rbg plug. the system fan plug wasnt noted as system plug it was something like swyz
@@apaches04soccer hi and thank you for the updates. Hope you did fix the issue 👍👍👍
Actually useful review.
Hi Atlas Fullsun, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback. All the best with your build too. 😉
Hello! Thank you for making this video as I have the same Montech Air 903 Max case now! In regards of mounting a 360mm AIO on the top, would ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III 360 A-RGB fit? or is the radiator too thicc? I have an MSI B660 Mag Mortar DDR4 Wifi board with big vrm heatsinks. I know you mentioned it in the video at: 12:31 but I didn't understand if it fits or not. You said it touches the VRM heatsink of the motherboard, but does that impede it's installation?
Hi ZealousPumpkinTV, welcome to my channel. I was referring to Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 not 360.. 360 LF2 or LF3 will fit.
@@KleoYan Hi KleoYan! Thank you for the reply! That's good to hear then, I'm thinking of getting the 360mm AIO from Arctic in the future then and putting it on the top of this Montech air 930 Max! I appreciate the help! I subscribed!
@@ZealousPumpkinTV you are most welcome. All the best with your build 😉
excellent video.
Hi M J, welcome to my channel. I am glad you like the content. Thank you and all the best with your build. 😉
Hi! To clear things out about the fan hub. So, I only need 4pin connector to my motherboard (sysfan1) + SATA connector to my PSU to control both RGB (with RGB button) and fans speed (in BIOS)? 3pin is not needed?
Hi Soilworker, welcome to my channel. That is correct, do note if you plug all fans to the hub and the pwm cable from the hub to your specific motherboard fan header. all your fans will take instructions from that fan header of your motherboard.
@@KleoYan that's exactly what I need to do (set all fans simultaneously to PWM in BIOS because right now they are working at max speed regardless the temperatures). Thanks a lot for your answer!
@@crazynuts699 you are most welcome. All the best with your build too.
Hello, great and very detailed review, highly appreciated! Love the measurements too. I have one question, if dont want to turn on the RGB on the fans at all, which of the cable on the hub should I not connect? Thank you!
Hi Neznamo, welcome to my channel. To do that, do not connect the ARGB connector (3pin 5V) of your fans to the hub. All the best with your build. 😉
Thank you very much! Best of luck for your next videos. @@KleoYan
@@neznamo7you are most welcome and thank you for your best wishes 😉
so the standoffs are preinstalled??? I am using a atx motherboard so will I not have to move any?
Hi CannedFruitCup, welcome to my channel. Yes the standoffs are pre-installed for ATX Form factor.
I broke the LD switch on the fan and rgb hub is there a site i can order a replacement? It would suck if i have to replace the whole case
Hi Avery GM, welcome to my channel. You can contact them through here www.montechpc.com/en/contact.php, either use the form or to directly email them at headquarter@montechpc.com
@KleoYan I definitely do this! I currently ordered a 3rd party piece to replace the the whole hub. So hopefully the 3rd party piece works if not I'll definitely call them
@@averygm9728 ok thats good, but I do encourage you to request a replacement of the controller as you have paid for it. Just my opinion. All the very best 👍
Got my pc assembled by someone else, any idea which wire to disconnect to permanently turn off the fan lights? I can use software but it doesn’t work until the computer is completely turned on.
Hi E WCQ, welcome to my channel. if that's the case, you can daisy chained your front fans and plug directly to your motherboard. do not plug any ARGB fan connectors to the case controller.
@@KleoYan Thanks I'll try that. Great video btw, honestly one of the best reviews for this case.
@@ewcq11 you are most welcome and thank you for your kind words. All the best with your build 😉
Hi there! How do you connect the 15 pin sata cable of the controller to the PSU? Thank you very much!
Hi Bruno Russo, welcome to my channel. Every PSU comes with a Sata cable, using one end of the Sata cable, connect it to your PSU and at the other end, plug it to the controller sata connector. Do not plug the controller sata connector directly to the PSU (though this is not possible but just a friendly reminder)
@@KleoYan thank you so much for replying! My PSU has a a sata cable that divides into three 4-pin. Do I need an adapter or am I being dumb? I have a picture if I can show you somehow. Thank you so much for replying and for trying to help!
@@awakening123 hi do you know the model and brand of your PSU and you can send a screenshot to my email at godzylatech@gmail.com.
@@KleoYan will do soon. You’re awesome!
@@awakening123 you are most welcome. I have replied to your email. 😉
How about 280 AIO mounted to the front? Or maybe 420?
Hi Tuubi Kuusela, welcome to my channel. You can mount the 280 but advisable that your fans are at the front and not inside the case with the radiator.
@@KleoYan Any chance 420?
@@tuubikuusela7847 hi welcome to my channel. Nope, this case is not catered for a 420 liquid aio.
can you put 360aio at the front
Hi bosiorne, welcome to my channel. Watch time stamp 7:16. Thank you.
can u put fans under the gpu area?
Hi SorabeeZ, welcome to my channel. yes you can place 2 x 120mm fans. ruclips.net/video/NTUa0lhoJLQ/видео.htmlsi=xk04WrIYoE3021pg&t=400
I bougth this case and Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 and asus rog 3090, what is the best way to install the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 280 ?
Hi Ahmed Essam, If your motherboard does not block the LF2 280 at the top. Try option 1 which is best configuration, if not try option 2.
Option 1
3 x fan - Front intake
Arctic Liquid Freezer II - Top exhaust
1 x rear fan - Exhaust
1 x bottom fans, intake. (place the fans near the front as the back portion is useless as the PSU is directly below the fan)
Option 2
1) Arctic LF2 280 at the front with hose at the bottom. (If hose not able to do bottom, then you got to do at the top)
2) 1 x bottom fans - Intake
3) 3 x top fans - Exhaust
4) 1 x rear fan - Exhaust
If you place GPU horizontally, the heat will directly exhaust and hitting your motherboard area. So to compromise, since your liquid AIO is at the front, which move warm air in from the front, have your GPU vertically mounted.
The sata from the fanhub, should it go into the psu or mainboard?
@@Jimmeyi hi and welcome to my channel. The Sata cable is to be plugged from your fan hub to the PSU sata cable.

Hello, clearly laid out in detail but I'm confused between this case and Lancool 216 which one you would suggest
Hi The Gentle Don, welcome to my channel. It all depends on your budget and how much you like about each case. for me I will go for Lancool 216 as I like the modularity plus the look of it. Both are with good case airflow.. just that Lancool 216 will cost more.
Thank you for your quick reply. The pricing differences at my local store between these cases are only $10 USD. And one more thing what your thoughts on Thermaltake Ceres 300 TG@@KleoYan
@@TheGentleDon. the Thermaltake Ceres 300 TG I do not have experience with it, I can't commit to answer do pardon me. though the case looks good but I will go for Asus GT502
Once again, I appreciate your help. @@KleoYan
@@TheGentleDon. my pleasure 😉
Hello, how durable is the case?(like it's flimsy) I'm thinking of either this or the H5 flow.
Also I saw some people reporting the power button blinking at night when the computer is off and the usb button doesn't work, does it happens to you?
Hello Star Seeker, welcome to my channel. The power button blink is due to the hdd activity, when it’s off, it should not blink. You can don’t plug the HDD LED to your motherboard and that will stop the blink as for USB, I don’t have that issue either. It could be motherboard bios is not up to date. Check your motherboard bios page to see if there are any issues on USB which has a fix. If not, you will be fine. As for durability. I have already illustrated that there are no cutting of corners. This case is build sturdy.
How is this case compared to the Lian Li Lancool 216?
Hi Chook Pan Quan, welcome to my channel. This case has the upper hand as it’s more spacious to work with. As for thermal, both case does its job. The final decision is still up to you.
@@KleoYan Thanks for the prompt reply, so it's safe to say this case would be your pick out of the two regardless of price?
What about in terms of build quality and sound insulation, would you say the lianli216 is worth an extra 27 sgd?
@@chookpanquan9172 build quality wise both are of the same. But personally I will go towards Lancool 216 as am attracted by the front 160mm fans which I can operate at lower rpm but still bring tons of cool air to the case
@@KleoYan Thanks for the feedback
@@chookpanquan9172 you are most welcome and all the best with your build too 😉
No dust filter in front panel?
Hi Verry Jaya, welcome to my channel, nope there are no front mesh.
Wish I'd seen this before getting it as they made such a classic mistake with top spacing for coolers
Hi Artos Bear, welcome to my channel. Thank you for your valuable feedback, I am sorry to hear that. maybe tell us more of what you meant by a classic mistake with the top spacing for coolers. Thank you!
@@KleoYan oh lol my bad. It's just a pretty common thing I've run into with cases where they don't account for radiator thickness running into the motherboard up top. 38mm rads+fans like Arctic's there ends up not being enough width sometimes, or not enough height, like in this one. Another way it happens is with higher end motherboards having big tall covers on the IO panel like the Asus Crosshair VIII Dark Hero for instance. The cover sticks up pretty far vertically from the top of the motherboard, and a lot of cases that are even "full" towers still get released without enough vertical space above the motherboard for installing a big radiator despite "supporting" a 360 or 420 or something.
Pleased with the case in general and your videos are really really great...extremely helpful as picking out a case is just fraught with little problems like this that can bork you and you usually can't get your hands on a case just to trial it.
very happy with the quality overall and the cable management is great.
@@artosbear I see, this is part of the reason that most of my PC case and motherboard open view, I will try to mention as much as I can. Being a PC Builder, we want to know in-depth details as we only have 1 time purchase. In some country like where I am, once item purchased, there will be no refund. Even if you can do full refund, the time spend to wait, it's a hassle, I rather do it once do it right.
Very good review and case. I like especially how you place it on a spinny tray and swirl it around right from the start.
If I may one thing about language, Your english is very good. You say "You will be ushered with...". It is a quite uncommon thing to say. You can rephrase it as 'presented with' or 'supplied with' or you will be given.
We will usher in a new age of humanity. You will be ushered with a new age. The word is too big. Whereas there the other terms I suggested would be too small.
Hi ya Honkler Bear, welcome back and thank you for the tip. I will improve on it 😉 Thank you!
I haven't seen one in person yet, but if they increased the quality of their cases over previous models, its a winner.
Will be hard to recommend something else to people that want to optimize their budget.
Hi Deviant Builds, welcome to my channel and you are right. Infact Montech is doing a good job so far, opening up qaulity and valuable products for us. Thank you for your feedback, greatly appreciated it. 👍
