The case is very poorly designed. Your motherboard just won't fit - you have to twist it a bit to put it in because the space for the CD drive is blocked (it's not removable).
The spacers on my CM didn't screw in, the screw thread was too narrow and sometimes crooked.
The power supply is fixed at the top and the whole thing is held together by a small metal support which does not reassure me.
My CM: (Gygabite A520M DS3H)
Seen from the outside the case is however very nice and it is one of the few that offer a CD player space.
The product description states that there is room for 3 fans which is not true. There is an error on the LDLC product description sheet. The 3rd fan I bought on purpose could not be installed and was put aside in my boxes when my tower was delivered assembled by LDLC. This case claims to fit long CGs. But don't do that. It would be suicide. The CG suffocates in this case there is not enough space for air flow. Multiple crashes are to be expected with intensive use. A decent case for non-gaming use and with an entry-level graphics card.
Compact all-metal housing with ample interior space .... Affordable alternative for those wishing to avoid fragile glazing with a belly in the air as it is simple and effective.
Buy for the price, the brand and the ratings already obtained.
It does its job perfectly. The fan provided is quiet.
Easy to mount my small configuration (fanless power supply+CM+old i3+fanless video card+1SSD.
This makes it a featherweight if you need to move it!
For the 3'5 drives, there are elastic joints to limit the noise&vibration.
good box not too expensive and well finished
has a usb2 and usb3 port on the front
just needs filters but that would have been more expensive
used for office, internet and other home applications it is perfect
This case is quite nice visually. On the other hand, the finish is rather poor and the paint easily takes finger/hand marks.
The big regret is inside. No possibility to make cable management easily, you have to fix the cables in holes intended for screws! However, the box is delivered with cable ties ... but we can't attach these cable ties to anything. A pity.
The metal used is quite thin. This box is sold for 50€, but is not worth more anyway. You get what you pay for, which is not much. It is, however, much better than some 30€ cases.
For 20€ more, the LDLC box is clearly better in every way.
I spent a lot of time to find what I was looking for: a small, light, discreet, robust, modular case, but still able to accommodate a muscular configuration. I chose this product and I am very satisfied.
Bought to build a small configuration for office use, I am happy with this purchase.
This tower is of nice apparent quality.
When you open it, everything is included to quickly mount all the components.
The only downside is that my SDS only fits in by forcing and bending the hard drive support plate slightly because the rubber that is in place for the 3.5" drive support is too thick for the screws provided.
For the rest, it is easy to assemble. The instructions are not absolutely necessary for those who know how to assemble a PC. Especially since it indicates to remove the front panel, which I didn't manage to do... No problem, I just lost 5 minutes to understand that I didn't need that.
Last remark, I thank the LDLC after-sales service which returned me quickly during the festive period the first model of this tower on which the USB3 plug was not functional (about 7 days between my sending a few days before Christmas and the return of the box to my home before New Year). BRAVO and thank you.
