    The Best Case I've Ever Owned

    This case is outstanding. Great build qulity, well thought out design for cable management and fan support with a dedicated fan hub, and it's easy to build in. There's tons of room for a large AIO if you choose to go that route. I installed a Fractal Lumen S28 280 mm, 2 fan cooler up top, but it supports up to a whopping 420mm! And the aesthetic is absolutely beautiful. The included 140mm Aspect fans really cool the system off well. Some people have mentioned that they're a little loud, but it hasn't bothered me one bit. I have headphones on most of the time anyways! I'd rather my system get adequate cooling than be whisper quiet. I can't recomment this case enough.

    Awesome and tasteful case

    Amazing case, very spacious, very tasteful and easy to fit everything in it. My shadowx3 5070 ti went in with the rest of my build with no issue.

    Another Excellent Fractal Case

    Just like the rest of my Fractal cases this model does not disappoint. I actually started a full build just because I became so attached to the aesthetics of this case. It's very easy to work in and is large enough to get almost anything you want into it. It's not quite as big as the XL name would make you think, but is plenty of room to work with. I've got a 360mm rad + 1 additional 120mm exhaust and 3 * 140mm intake fans with no issues. I replaced the included 3 * 140mm fans in the front so that all of my fans would match.

    Beautiful looking PC case

    The reviews never said how heavy this case it. It is HEFTY! It looks beautiful though. I wish that the glass was more clear so I could easily see my components but I really love this case. It looks classy and blends in with my TV console. It also is super easy to clean. It accumulates dust on the front fans but I was able to clean it thoroughly with a vacuum. I give it 4/5 stars because of it’s weight and the dark glass, which I know is personal preference.

    Excellent case, get this for most builds

    Excellent case that is super easy to build in, has plenty of options to hide wires, and looks great with the wood front panel. Would have liked an additional fan at the back for exhaust, but can easily get any fan to add on. Also one additional USB-C port on the top panel would have made it perfect.
