Looks like my Fractal Design Define C TG, but with a glass front panel.
By the looks of it, and from what I know from my case, you had better install the best available fan on the back, and/or top, because the GPU will get hot and the air intake isn't great.
I wonder if this one is as quiet as mine.
This one here looks like it has few more mounting places for SSDs. And maybe some other minor changes. But in general, you are right. Pretty damn similar.
I have Meshify variant w/ TG. I kind of like it. And I do use low rpm fans, GPU is cool. (Front intake through CPU RAD as I want lowest temperature on CPU possible. Bottom intake. PSU, Rear and top is blowing air out.

I like the aesthetics of Fractal Design cases.
For me, front is intake through rad too, with 2 120mm fans on low rpm. Top is closed, and I have my pump-res combo there. It exhausts air through the back.
My VGA would hit temps over 74°C. Just by using a good exhaust fan, I managed to make the GPU temp drop to ~64°C. CPU (Ryzen 7 1700 @3.8GHz) temp hts 45°C while gaming, which is good.
I'm planning to get a GPU that I can add to my loop and go for total silence.

I see, closed top explains it.
