It's something I didn't realize when I bought this case, but it's rather small, and when installing an ATX board, there was very limited space, being cumbersome to connect some of the cables (e.g. Power On, Reset, Audio, USB Front Panel, etc.)I should have bought the bigger model of this case, but as it's already installed now, I will stay with it.

Had a look at the Phanteks P400a and the Fractal Meshify C. Both cases leaving more to be desired. Thought I'd try this as it had only just come out. Everything from the get go looked promising with the very solid packaging (I've had 2 cases turn up DIT before in the past.) I gotta say I actually got a bit excited getting it out the box lol. It's an elegant looking little case. It's just what I was after and I still really love it 4 months in. I went with the grey model which is well suited to founders edition colour gpus and my TV. I could go on for days but basically it's got quite a few nice features for instance the top comes off enabling access for custom water loops etc. If your after an understated air flow case with a small footprint then I'd say this is ... MoreHad a look at the Phanteks P400a and the Fractal Meshify C.

Note: If you run an aio on the front intake your max gpu length available is approx 315mm. Basically I'm not easy to please but this case has a feeling of quality with some nice features you don't see on cases £20 less bringing in the feeling of satisfaction and value to the table.

Amazing case. Bought it as a gift and the feedback from the owner is very positive.Great build and thought-through design. Very modular, can even remove front mesh\filter if you want even better airflow.Be aware though - if for some reason you are still using 3.5" drives, maybe check non-compact case, because 3.5" cage reeks of afterthought - not easy to reach and cable if you have 2 such devices.Also if you use air cooler for CPU - measure the height and make sure you actually fit into COMPACT case.

Switched to this chassis after reading many positive reviews. I must say that I am very satisfied with the purchase. Build went very smoothly thanks to the removable top panel. Was a little worried that my 200mm mains adapter (AX1200) wouldn't fit together with the 3.5" cage, but luckily it just fit together. Using only one place in the cage, I was able to run cables through the other compartment.
Really well-thought-out chassis, terribly good possibilities for cable routing - the fact that the top can be lifted off makes the assembly of components a breeze.The 3 included fans deliver really good flow for being OEM and dust filters both above, below and from the front make it very easy to keep dust free. Big + for USB-C on the front!To summarize, this understated enclosure without a lot of RGB with a simple design on the front was a clear winner for me in terms of appearance
Great case and an improvement over the Original Meshify C I built in previously. Easily accessible with removable top panel and front mesh. Good dust filtration. Cable management is suboptimal with minimal space behind the back panel for routing cables and a snap lock mechanism which forces you to manage the cables well enough or the panel cannot close. Measure your GPU. I have the MSI Suprim X 4070Ti and it barely fits with Corsair Slim Fans. I am not confident that standard fans would allow it to fit within the case. Overall, building in it is a good experince if you careful measure your parts in advance.
Absolute best case I've built in! Feels solid quality and every detail is perceived as well thought out by fractal. Cabling was easy, the only thing is that the space in the back is a bit tight! Fans that come with are reasonably quiet after adjusting the fan curves. But since the fans are standard 3-pin, they are controlled via DC and thus have a higher speed (at idle) than a PWM fan! Still great fans that absolutely do the job and feel well built!The case is not only nice but it is also well ventilated, lowered my CPU temperature by 5-10 degrees Celsius in idle and 6-8 degrees Celsius in benchmark (stress test), on a warm Ryzen 5 CPU! A perfect chassis for those who run tower coolers!
Perfect size case for my build, fits nicely under my desk, houses an RTX 3080 FE easily, I've turned the fans down (from bios) and is practically silent from 50cm away with good airflow. Excellent cable management, very simple and easy build as you can take the top panel out completely and side panels are easy to remove. Case is well built but also quite light, easy to move around and comes with 3 fans. They're not PWM but I am able to change the RPM on these fans in the bios anyway. Can't really ask for much more! Recommended
I have an earlier generation of the Meshify case, which I liked, but this one is even better. Being able to easily remove the top and the sides makes it easy to work on. There's a nice cutout in the back so you can put your CPU cooler in after installing the motherboard. I didn't want the drive cage in the bottom, and wasn't sure if I could remove it, but referred to the manual which showed to remove it from the back.Everything is so clean and nice with the wiring going around the back instead of having a nest of cables on top of the motherboard.I would definitely buy a Fractal Design case again for future builds.
It's straightforward to build in with pre-run cables and ties already in the case. Taking off the side panels, front and top of the case doesn't require unscrewing anything! Much better airflow than in my last case.
