The PC case has been redesigned for the year 2017 and that includes usage of a tempered glass side-panel as well as the biggest 200mm RGB fans you have ever seen. Of and if you like to do so, you could also mount, well hang your graphics card in a vertical position.

Prompted by all the talk of ***** I just read their review of this case. Looks like the promise of high air flow is really not the reality - they found CPU & GPU temperatures to be disappointingly high in comparison to other cases they have reviewed. I won't link the article, but you can find it. Just can't tell how these cases will perform until you test them.

I have an old HAF-X case still with 6x8 TB HDDs and 2 SSDs in it. I think it is crazy a case this size would only have room for two HDDs. It is essentially the same size as the HAF-X (HAF-X is two inches taller but also has fans built into the top).
I appreciate some of the effort put into hiding wiring/components but I personally would never buy a gigantic case that can only fit two HDDs. If this case were smaller I'd have less of an issue.

Yeah, Coolers (2 pieces on the front panel) are there, but what happend to Masters?
I would not take this case, even if it was for free. "Nice looking" plastic gimmick. No front compartment for optical drives? Huge miss! It might be a technology that is slowly getting out of fashion, but hey! 80% of PC users have like hundreds of millions of CDs, DVDs, BluRay discs, with billions of games, installations, music and video/movie stuff on them. It's no master anymore - it's just a cooler(s) now. Cooler should have thought twice before they made such omission if they want to deserve the other half of their name (Master)...
