    An OK box

    The casing conforms to its description. However, 2 points bothered me.

    Firstly, it says that 30cm graphics cards are compatible, but not really. With the lever effect for inserting the card, it's more likely that graphics cards with a maximum length of 28-29cm will fit (my 108°ti Asus Rog strix didn't fit).

    Next, the 80mm fan is surprisingly noisy. Almost disturbing. I wanted to reduce the fan's native speed in the BIOS, but as this product is sold with only one fan, reducing its speed wouldn't be a good idea for the AirFlow, which is already very limited but sufficient for an RX6600 that doesn't heat up much. With another 120mm front-mounted fan, this might be possible.

    The plus points are that the case is small, which is great for not having a big, awkward PC on the desk, especially in my case with a dual PC for rendering. The design is just like the photos, so it's pretty cool. The plastic effect and non-glass pane, which let's be honest for this price isn't a bother, it just has to do its job as a case with a little "see inside" effect and it's done. So it's just a shame about the 80mm fan noise.

    Suitable

    Product as described.
    Suitable entry level quality enclosure with decent layout space.
    As for the LED light at the front of the tower, nothing is really functional, which is a pity and no documentation concerning its wiring and/or connection is supplied with the product.
    All in all, an attractive package for its price.

    plastic in front

    I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use a metal one, but I'm sure it's a good idea to use a plastic one.

    Very satisfactory

    A well finished small format case for the price. No front fan and the rear in 80 which would be better in 120. But very satisfied with my purchase
