Aside from the funny name, there is suppose to be some good reviews on this case so far.

let me guess...no 5.25 bay. What is wrong with all these manufacturers? Are they mental? Can't include just 1 bay?

Ruins the look of the front of the case and takes up valuable fan real estate.. lol I personally haven't used a 5.25" drive since 2007, so this doesn't affect me - but I guess I can see it being annoying for people wanting that.. a lot of the newer cases have none.

No 5.25" drive bay is a deal breaker for me. Cases are getting too expensive to lack features....

Just out of curiosity, what do you use your 5,25" bays for?

Fan controllers under some circumstances, reservoir / pump combos at times. But hardly any more optical drives, that's true if you meant that.

I have Meshify C but with dark tinted window, so happy with it.. And it HAS 2 x 5.25 bays at the bottom of the case under the metal protection for PSU! 🙂 Edit: You can see the bays on second, fourth and fifth picture (Flexible storage options...).

I understand fan controllers but does a reservoir/pump fit into a small 5,25 bay? 🙂

hehe not, mine uses two plus a third one on top that I kept free to not have to take it out of the bays to refill if necessary 😀

That's not a case, that's a house 😀
Hehe yeah it is, I remember that each time I do maintenance and drain the loop or change anything with the hardware... lift with the legs, not with the back 😀

Almost 20 damn kilograms without hardware...yep, definitely lift with the legs 😀
