“How are owners thermals on this? I have serious concerns with how closed off it seems and doesn't look like it promotes any airflow at all. Looking to put a 10900k with a 3080 in it.”

Look elsewhere for a case with those components, especially if air cooling your cpu. Both those components run hot, and this case will become overwhelmed with thermals. I purchased this case to transpose some older components into, and thermals were an immediate problem. The stock case fans (even at 100%) can't muscle enough air through the front panel. A 9900k @5.1ghz with 280mm cooler, and a gtx 1080ti (blower style) saw temps on running in the high 80's to 90's, so not good at all. After replacing the stock fans with high static pressure Corsair fans, temps came down significantly, but still not ideal.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.has a load of fan options for the top,back and front and multiple radiator options but if your plans are intense overclocking while aircooling than you might wanna leave the front glass off.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm running a 5900X RTX 3070 64GB ram Noctua NHU-14 cooler. The case is rather restricted with airflow inlets they are on the side of the front panel. There are small screens on the front panel. I'd remove the screens as this will stop dust blocking the screens, but you will get dust inside. Conversely what I did is to run with an open case (no side glass panel). I've got good temps on cpu 42 to 70C. This is a hot running chip as is the 10900k. The 3070 is no slouch with heat either, but it runs cool too. Also I went into bios and turned up the speeds on all case fans. Hope this helps but if you want to cool well then you are going to get dust.
