Lol I found it entertaining. This pc got taken apart 15 mins later and is about the case not the components. so who cares what components are used. Grab whatever is closest. I'd do the same thing
I love these quick regular 10-minute-ish "let's just build a PC" to show off "X" component(s). I would watch these no matter how many of them they make. I hope this is something they continue to do more of
Man, when Alex rolls, you get to the point fast...he's like Disney World without the crowds, you go in bam, the ride happens and you are OUT...sick! Thanks, Alex!
I love my Meshify C, I'm gonna keep this thing for a solid 10 years I think, only thing I wish it had was a 5 and a quater inch drive bay but then it wouldn't be as compact.
The only thing "wrong" with my C is it's white. I picked that because it was my first ever build back in August. When I saw everyone and their grandma was building white, I decided to switch to all black components. Now, only the case is white. Still looks neat. 😁 Oh, and screw the attached panel, too. 😂 Sadly, the 2C still isn't being sold yet in my country.
@@samuelm5140 I just built in the XL a week ago and it was a pleasure. I'd probably buy the compact though unless you use more than a single HDD (the build I just did has 16 but that's a special purpose machine) or plan on a larger than standard motherboard
I’m so amused that people aren’t sure if this is an April Fools joke. Personally I think it’s actually kinda useful to know that the case is so easy to build in that you can just kinda go for it with very little prep and it’s that forgiving.
Fractal always had a soft spot in my heart. This is a testament of their forward movement. Cheap, silent, high quality, good air flow and cooling. Not to mention super easy to build with. What's not to love?!
I love Alex videos -- it always starts out with him saying "It'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience" and then proceeds to be super not-easy, full of many inconveniences...
I have this case currently sitting in my office. I still need to buy like 90 percent of the other components for my build, I've given up on the graphics card, but now I feel validated for my case selection. 😊
The Meshify C TG is just awesome and this is a worthy successor imho. I especially just love that they improved the front panel so much as the old one is a nightmare to get off. Also, woot woot! case reviews are back!
I have the meschify c (so v1) and still use it, it’s awesome and such a small footprint. Also the tinted glass is awesome. It can fit all full size components. And the fact this new version has all the fans. It’s the best deal out there. Good layout, epic cooling and all filters that are easy to clean.
The Arctic cooler's VRM fans work perfectly for me in my SFF ITX build. On a large case with a lot of airflow or in motherboards with active VRM cooling, it might be a gimmick, but in an SFF case with a motherboard without active VRM coolers, this really works.
3:34 I still have scars on my fingers from those razor wire filled cases... Friend: Oh dude epic scar, how did you get it!? Me: Building computers like a BAWS!
@@ribale609 I didn’t notice them vibrating. Whilst they’re definitely not the worst fans I’ve seen included with a case, they’re not as quiet as the Noctuas I had in my previous case so I switched them out after a week
I've built three computers recently, one of which in this case. One in the Meshify 2, and another in the be quiet 500dx. So a comparison on another compact atx case and the bigger version of this case. The Meshify 2C was the most tight of them all. In particular, I actually had to work really really hard to get the back to close up fully on mine. Maybe one of the corners was faulty and came off easy, but even then, you still put pressure outwards against the back if you don't do it perfectly. The other two cases had a lot more room for cables, so I didn't really have to worry about cable management on either. That's my main complaint. Both the 500dx and this are about the same size, but this is a few mm smaller in each direction. Both are tiny, and I love both. But the 500dx is just a bit more convenient on your hands. This has rubber grommets, but the 500dx felt like it had more space for pulling in cables from the back. Both Meshifys I was forced to have a long loop of cable come out on a weird angle for the usb 3 gen 1 type a connector on the bottom. I used a different motherboard for the 500dx, but I don't think that one would have as big of a problem. The 500dx is more gamer looking. This is more subdued, but both are very very pretty. The Meshify 2 felt the most premium of all three. The paint on the screws of the 500dx was a bit meh, and something felt a bit cheaper on this case. But every single thing on the Meshify 2 felt so so amazing. Which case would I recommend? Literally whatever. They all do feel very premium, and are all very nice. The Meshify 2C and the 500dx let you feel a bit like you're building itx but get all your atx goodies. The Meshifys have a convenient top removal that makes building more convenient. Nothing will feel more compact than the Meshify 2C, but you will get all you want out of it. (Except for top 280mm radiator. I was able to barely fit a 280mm radiator on top of the 500dx, but I really don't recommend doing it. Had to cut the edges of the fans a bit to fit.) An ever so slightly taller (for the 280mm radiators) and ever so slightly wider (for the cable management) version of this Meshify 2C case would make it perfect. Or a taller 500dx. Generally, most people really don't need that extra space on the front. Compact cases can still be big enough for the biggest graphics cards, so ones with all that front space is really not necessary. 10/10 would recommend any of the above cases, so long as you keep mentioned caveats in mind.
The meshify compact is literally the slightly bigger case than the meshify c so maybe that's nicer to build. With modern GPUs c is really on its limit. My brothers rtx 3080 had 2-3mm space to the front fans.
The Meshify C is such a cool case. I have the white one and it is great. The new one looks a bit worse around the front i think, but the toolless design and extra fans look sick.
@@WayStedYou I have a 5950X and a 3090 in the original Meshify C without having to do anything fancy to make the GPU fit (3x120mm normal fans in the normal position in the front). Some of the oversized 3090 models might not fit, but regular full-sized 3090s fit. Front watercooling is possible with a 3090, but only if you go with slim 120mm fans on the mesh side of the case.
@@arnox4554 Very few users need 5.25” drive bays. When I got the Meshify C, I bought an external enclosure for my bluray burner, but I’ve never used it since. What else are they good for other than optical drives and hot swap bays (which don’t belong in consumer desktops) that can’t be replaced with external devices?
@@guspaz Yeah, you don't NEED a 5.25'' bay(s), just like you don't NEED a USB-C port(s) on the front, and you don't NEED a Lamborghini in blue. But it's nice to have, so I have no idea what your point is there. Also, I think you only say the external hot swap bays don't belong in "consumer" desktops because you don't have one and haven't actually seen how nice they are. They are super convenient to have and also allows you to use cheap internal storage as hot-swappable external storage anytime with full read/write speeds. A 5.25'' bay also ensures you don't have to install some clunky enclosure for your optical drive in case you actually wanna watch movies on your computer or you have some archived content you need to see. And finally, the bays allows you to mount more external ports to the front of the PC in case you need them. There is only ONE reason why you wouldn't want the bays, and that is because you want to maximize air flow. But unless you're overclocking your PC to hell (waste of time anyway in my opinion), you don't need all that air flow. I run a workstation desktop with 3 5.25'' drive bays and it runs absolutely fine. Quiet even. And yes, I do some crypto-mining on it as well even and it still works absolutely fine.
Cases are my favourite reviews, this is where these manufacturers need to start shining, like honestly so many directions and options possibilities and we are still very standard, but still they are making improvements...
This is super helpful because I'm deciding whether to go for a compact or full-size case. I think having to be a bit careful with part selection and everything being a bit tight will annoy me slightly more than having the wasted space in a larger case, so I think I'm gunna go full-size.
I built my new pc in this case. 9/10 really loved it! I used an arctic 240 up top instead of a 360 rad on the front because of gpu clearance. Only complaint I had was the pcie expansion slot screws were over torqued from factory.
as someone who has the original meshify C and opens up to switch coolers on my rig all the time (because i just can't decide what to use) I can say that the removable top side is more valuable than most people think it is. installing a DH15 and having to get to the CPU cooler header is so hard because of the limited space. I'm so happy it got addressed and if I had money I might actually pay to get this case for that change as well as the screwless glass side panel.
Alex: "Building a PC is easiest it's ever been" Also Alex: *proceeds to get the wrong CPU rad size, need a tool to clip a fan on the cooler, forgets to plug the USB header in, struggles with cable management and technically gets the name of the harddrive wrong* :P Exos. Exynos is a Samsung chip
I was really shocked to see the Noctua fan put in. My new PC build had the very same fan and case and was worried about clearance... But not anymore. Thhank youuuuuu!
@@aztracker1 what about ide and remembering to put jumpers on the hd's to mark them as master/slave? then booting from a floppy and using cmd to start the windows install.. fun times...
@@tpss3834 I remember those days. Custom rounding ide cables, cutting off the dangling slave portion for clearer airflow for the single 80mm intake fan. Ketchup and mustard power cables everywhere. COMMAND.COM not CMD ;-) First computer was an at the time old XT with a whipping 10mb full height mfm hard drive. With 640k ram.
Tbh might be the case, buuuut the power supply would be a deal braker for me. I have a ATX PSU and if I would get a new case I would look for one that can take a ATX PSU to save myself the hassle of selling the old one and buying a new smaller one.
My first pc build last year wash a Fractal Meshify C case white, was last years model and it looked great. Amazing thermal performance and a breeze to build in, but with the addition of the removable top and included 140mm fans I am about to buy another one and ditch my Maingear case. Thanks for the video LMG. Kudos to you to Alex.They be 160 on Amazon USA though right now though.
I have the original verison of this case and can confirm, it was rough building without the top coming off. Though I did manage to fit a thick 240 rad up top, a normal 280 in the front, fans everywhere, a slightly long PSU, 2 HDD and 3 Sata SSDs in it. Only a couple millimeters in places but hey, as any machinist will tell ya, a single thousandths of an inch is as good as a mile. Got mine in the smoked glass and it looks real good.
I bought this case, it arrived today. Specifically purchased for great reviews on airflow, being compact, styling, and NO RGB. I mean, if that's your thing, that's cool. But it's nice to have this as an option as well.
I really like Fractal Design cases. More than half my builds in the past decade have used them. Bonus is they have options without glass for those who don't want RGB.
That comment about putting Noctua fans in there... that’s basically what I did in the original one. This is just the perfect case for someone who values functionality over form.
i bought a thermal take p2, and have no reason to buy a new one atm. its wall mounted, and fully open. i don't think there were ever be something too big for it, and i love standing while changing and checking components. 10/10 case
I actually just finished building my new PC in this case and it was a pretty pleasant experience. The only real problems I came across were that I had to remove the bottom rubber cable grommet due to power supply clearance issues, and that the space up on top is very tight for anything other than a couple of 120mm fans. I can't imagine putting a rad up there too, maybe a single 120.

Fractal makes the best "blank boxes" to build in. They don't do fancy at all but for function over form they're pretty hard to beat
"can't go wrong with this"
Goes wrong with it.
My first pc build last year wash a Fractal Meshify C case white, was last years model and it looked great. Amazing thermal performance and a breeze to build in, but with the addition of the removable top and included 140mm fans I am about to buy another one and ditch my Maingear case. Thanks for the video LMG. Kudos to you to Alex.They be 160 on Amazon USA though right now though.
Ooo, this is a nice case.
I nearly bought the arctic and this case. You saved me from a mistake, thank you.
Hot take: writing "foreshadowing" makes the actual foreshadowing less intriguing
Hot take: no one cares what you think
I completely agree, also so far 18 people care what you think compared to the opposition with 0 people haha!
I have the original verison of this case and can confirm, it was rough building without the top coming off. Though I did manage to fit a thick 240 rad up top, a normal 280 in the front, fans everywhere, a slightly long PSU, 2 HDD and 3 Sata SSDs in it. Only a couple millimeters in places but hey, as any machinist will tell ya, a single thousandths of an inch is as good as a mile.
Got mine in the smoked glass and it looks real good.
last time I was this early the soviet union was functioning.
Congrats to Everyone Who is Early and who found this comment💘
i built in the meshify c 1 one year ago. Phenominal experience. paired with an asus board made the whole process worry free.

First

All around, that was a really chill build video. Good stuff!
I bought this case, it arrived today. Specifically purchased for great reviews on airflow, being compact, styling, and NO RGB.
I mean, if that's your thing, that's cool. But it's nice to have this as an option as well.
The feels I got while watching this amazingness when I got couple months ago Meshify C, now I want Meshify C2.....
You guys nearly built my PC, old Meshify C, 3900X, Liquid Freezer II 280, Seasonic PX 750, Samsung SSD, 12TB Exos drive and 1070 Ti myself lol
Very good video, need more builds with Alex.
Upgraded my motherboard/cpu/ram but kept the case because its so amazing, I love it
I really like Fractal Design cases. More than half my builds in the past decade have used them. Bonus is they have options without glass for those who don't want RGB.
I have a meshify C and it’s actually amazing
This makes me happy that most RUclipsrs like this case, considering I already bought and built-in it when I first found out about it 😂
This is totally true "back in my day, you had to get a bunch of cuts from the unfinished edges on your steel case"
That comment about putting Noctua fans in there... that’s basically what I did in the original one. This is just the perfect case for someone who values functionality over form.
A practical and maintenance-free gear to maintain a machine performance in a long run.
I have the Meshify C Mini (mATX) and freaking love it. Such an easy build. Good pick!
I got the same case but xl. And all i can say is love it❤️
8:52 That's the best feature of this case!
Airflow oriented , no rgb, ez to build in. Saving this video for when i start building my own PC
I built my first PC last year with the Meshify C and I love it so much! Having no RGB is one reason I went with it.
i bought a thermal take p2, and have no reason to buy a new one atm. its wall mounted, and fully open. i don't think there were ever be something too big for it, and i love standing while changing and checking components. 10/10 case
I have the original meshify and I love that case. Good size, dust filters are great, great airflow.
From what I've seen, that "silly fan" makes a decent difference
I love Alex... More of this, all of the time... We Love you Alex, you are awesome and we all want to be as cool as you...
You did a fantastic job at cable management for only 2:30!
Got this bad boy last week, awesome pc case !
adding this to my shopping list as we speak
This has some good solutions in it, I should copy some of this when I make my own custom case!
Thanks guys. I was planning a build with the same case and didnt know the 1st thing about AIO. Thanks to you guys now I know its up to 240mm 😂
that looks so clean and powerful. i want it
I actually just finished building my new PC in this case and it was a pretty pleasant experience. The only real problems I came across were that I had to remove the bottom rubber cable grommet due to power supply clearance issues, and that the space up on top is very tight for anything other than a couple of 120mm fans. I can't imagine putting a rad up there too, maybe a single 120.
I have the original Meshify C. It's one of the few quality cases with metal side panels and good air flow.
