i may be boring but i love the minimalistic design, insane price too!
Yes it looks nice but temperatures will be much higher than other cases. You may want to check out the A3 from inwin.
Very detailed review with every single area / piece of the case. Keep up the awesome work!
Thank you, glad you liked it.
Nice animation for gpu sizes , kudos ! I got this case just this month for my personal desktop ! I got it just because its cheap and pretty minimalistic. Thanks to your video , liked and subbed due to your efforts in video , cheers 🍻
Thanks, glad you liked it.
ikr, highlighting is so helpful !
Thanks for doing all that testing. Just wondering what your thoughts are on using the top as an intake? (For air cooled cpu). Perhaps not ideal from a convection perspective. However the fans are not particularly effective in the front of this case...
I don't really see an issue for the CPU with having the top as intakes, however the real issue this case has is GPU temperatures and I don't see this helping with that...
@@HardwareForGamers Thanks. That explains why I got a used 110 so cheap. ... but I've only got a low power GPU, so no problems. However if I upgrade to a RX570, I'll look at installing some ducting.
great review. i wonder if one could achieve better results with top and rear as intake and front fans as outtake. as the top and rear dont restrict airflow as much as the frontpanel. if you wanna go harder i wonder if the plastic at the side s of the frontpannel could be cuz out without loosing stability
Having the top and rear fans as intakes would likely help the CPU temps, but would have the GPU temps be worse. Your best bet would be to run a negative pressure set up, so get 3 good fans at the rear and top set as exhaust.
@@HardwareForGamers now thats a fast answer. i think ur probably right, my suggestion most likely leads ot no fresh air at the bottom, especially rear
Thanks for the video cause i am trying to find a case that is around $50 to house all of my old parts inside of so i could then sell it which for my in case for the CPU it would be using a 240mm AIO that would be mounted on the top.
I really liked the design of the deepcool 110, but after watching your video I saw that it was not the best option, thank you very much. I'm looking for some minimalist and functional m-atx alternative. could you share your opinion about the Montech Air 100?
I haven't had hands on the air 100 so I have no idea of temps but by looking at pictures of it the build quality isn't bad but not as good as the FD, Corsair, or SilverStone. So it really comes down to the price.
Try the Darkflash dlm21, SAMA IM01 or the newly release Asus Prime Ice Cube also known as Asus AP201
Montech air 100 lite has a poor construction compared to this macube, but, is much better on airflow, I had both and now I am using the Montech, around 10° less in temperatures
Deepcool ch370 is a much better option for matx case with front ventilation
I have a blower card, do you think that would elevate some of the issues with gpu temps? As long as it gets enough cold air?
It might, but the issue is where's it getting the cool air from.
Can you recommend some case with mini tower like this case and have better airflow whitout dust or good dust filter?
The only ones coming to mind are the SilverStone H1M - ruclips.net/video/q-eJ8oEXQ64/видео.html
The Thermaltake S100 - ruclips.net/video/Gkb2WZx5zow/видео.html
And the inwin A3 which I still need to record but I have tested.
Well I use the Molex connector in 2023 because the standard cable with the 3 pin is simply too short. My motherboard makes it even worse with one of the worst placements. So yeah, DeepCool has done an excellent job by providing a choice.
😞
i like the case, but the power button on top is sticking
Thank you for this, almost bought this case but decided not to after watching your video. Cheers.
Glad you found the video helpful.
any idea if intel 12400 and RTX3060 will suffer the same issues ? . thanks for the detailed review
Same issues? As in the case having bad airflow? Then yes it will.
yes
@@HardwareForGamers Hi, could you specify which hardware you placed in the case that got you this temps? I would like to have a baseline to my components.. 65W TDP CPU and a 175 TDP GPU with a decent 2 fan cooler. Really appreciate it.
@@butaudo1918 the test system is in the description but...

Bro there's no way this case can fit 360 mm radiator. I have the case, with 3 fans installed up front, I don't think there's any space left for tubes etc.
Have you tried installing 360 mm rad in the front?
No sorry I haven't installing it myself. I personally would not recommend having a rad along the front of this case do to the lack of airflow.
hi do you know if a "ASUS PRIME H510M- A" motherboard would fit in on the standoffs
4:10
Nice Video, after seeing this, I have some doubts about buying it. Is there any other Matx case with similar price, but with better cooling? Thanks!
the S100 did pretty well in my testing. You will need to buy some fans, but with the fans it did well. - ruclips.net/video/Gkb2WZx5zow/видео.html .
Is it ok to have no rear exhaust fan? 2 240mm front intake. 2 120mm top exhaust.
It shouldn't really matter.
I have a RTX 3060 Ti from Zotac, Ryzen 5 3600 watercooled with an H55 from Corsair, all in the Macube 110. After running 3D Mark TimeSpy, i analyzed the graph to notice that both barely stay under 80 degrees. Which is such a waste for a CPU cooler. I would recommend this case for builds with a 3rd gen CPU and a 1660ti or something, tops 3060ti with 5th gen CPU. Anything above that and you risk thermal throttling/overheating even with a great cooler.
I would say just don't buy it, and hopefully deepcool learns not to make saunas into cases.
@@HardwareForGamers @Hardware For Gamers I agree, would have bought a better alternative, but it's too late. PC is already done. The temps I mentioned aren't too bad, but I saw a better alternative for the same price from another manufacturere right after I bought this case... Should have done my research better.
do u think a 2060 and a 10100F will be cool enough with a stock cpu cooler?
@@blackness. not inside this case. I mean, id get the box version of the cpu and see how it goes. If its bad, id get a nice air cooler around 50 bucks
@@flatikk i plan on adding more fans to the case so if i get like 3 more fans it should be enough?
this freakin helpful, i'd go for more better option with decently expensive, the 275R Mesh CORSAIR !!
Glad I could help.
Oh, that is disappointing about the ventilation. It looks so good otherwise. Bummer.
It really is...
all cases should have a mesh front panel for direct airflow in 2021+. otherwise I would have picked up this case for a basic build.
I agree that all cases should have some sort of mesh panels (doesn't need to be the front panel) the A3 and A5 from In Win look promising they going for a chimney effect, so bottom to top. Trying to get a review samples, so hopefully I can test them soon.
Please tell me. Will a 4070 gamerock classic graphics card fit in this case?
What size is it?
@@HardwareForGamers 313.9 x 137.0 x 65.1 mm
@@polyrhythm6656 So yes... with front fans you can fit a 350+/- GPU
@@HardwareForGamers thank you !
Holy shit just watched this video after ordered the case on pc shop :((
Can you cancel the order?
@@HardwareForGamers Nope, guess i'd use it for a while and buy another later
The ch370 is the better version of this with the front panel mesh and also mounting spots above the psu shroud for additional fans.
Solid front panel was a bad idea. I was considering it and removing the front panel except there’s no mesh filter on this case at the front
horrible air flow for gaming.
Yup
Depends on the setup. I dont see temps over 60⁰ cpu and 70⁰ gpu on stress tests or gaming with a ryzen 4500 overclocked to 4.3ghz and a rx6600 saphire using amd overclock.
@@thelowbudgetguy those are low powered hardware.
@@JayzBeerz yes they are, but still a dedicated low budget gaming rig. Perfect for 1080p 144hz gaming which this case is adequate for.
