Aerocool Cylon Mid-Tower RGB PC Gaming Case, ATX, Full Tempered Glass Side Window, 13 Lighting Modes, 1 x 120mm Black Fan Included, Built With Gamers In Mind | White

the glass broke while unscrewing

I know its tempting to spend so little on a case with tempered glass and rgb but i cannot stress how much i wish id spent more money on a better case. The build quality is cheap with the thread for the glass panels screws to go into stripping after putting the side panel on the for the second time (using only my fingers to add!). Cable management is significantly harder in this case than other matx cases ive built in (simialarly priced and cheaper even) and the lack of a psu/drive shroud is truly not ideal.The worst part however is by far the awful airflow in this case. The front can accept 2 120mm fans (if you reroute the front panel io from the port they come poking through into a dfferent one which i wish id known before building the rest of the system) and 1 92mm exhaust. You'll need to drill holes to mount a 120mm fan on the top which looks like should have been there from the start! Add to that the fact that your intakes only drag air from a tiny slot in the front and it leads to builds running 20°c hotter at the cpu and gpu than if the side panel is taken off. Keep in mind pcs should run cooler with the side panel on due to flow management and that shows how awful the airflow is here. Spend the extra 30 pounds and buy a nicer case. You wont regret it.

This case is very nice, sleek and modern. However I am fairly disappointed that they didn’t include enough air ventilation. I’m running a R9 380 in this, and it gets up to 85-90°C in the matter of minutes, despite having max fans. In turn this is heating up my processor far to much that it’s under-clocking it and the case then feels like hot enough to cook an egg on. I suggest to stay well clear from this unless you are planning to use for low end graphics card, or none at all. Tested without the graphics card and using my onboard APU R7 graphics chip and that got to a max of 31°C while playing games. (I do use a water cooled system for the processor) but do not buy for graphics cards! You have been warned!

Just got this today to start new build. First things I've come across.1 - 3.5" inch hard drive bay. There's only mounting points on one side, which leave the other side hanging under it's own weight. Had to use HDD screws to level it out.2 - Cable management for CPU power cable. Top gaps for cable's are restricted by the case surround, so alternate side gaps have to be used. This is all I've found so far, but will update through build.

Its a small case. Fits all your micro atx boards and whatever graphics card you wanna throw in there too. Very nice light on the front that can be set to your favourite solid colours.There is space behind the mobo for hiding cables and the side panel is glass, not plastic, so thats nice.

Great case for a great price! Fitted more fans than I expected and the leds are rgb-enough yet not too eye-attacking, also has the option to shut them off if you’re not the rgb fan! I would definitely recommend this case for anyone whose not wanting anything to big and obnoxious yet something more subtle and stylish!
