Hey,

the case looks interesting. Currently im waiting for Ghost S1 in Arctic White, which will also be available in the next quarter.

This Case is bigger by a huge margin but is capable of thicc gpus and thicc aios (280mm).

Im hyped and I definitely consider this case.


But and here are the downsides so far:

» No PCIe 4.0 Riser Cable included (the Ghost has one, but is 200 $ more in price)

» No easy Upgrade to PCIe 4.0 Cable (because of the length a 20cm will fit the best but this procedure will include bending and trying from the community to get the one cable that fits and is durable enough)

» Mesh Sides. On a 100 € Case there is no need for all-sides-mesh if the case is clearly designed for thicc radiators. therefore, you don't need to cool the mobo side, because the radiator will get you enough airflow for vrms and chipset. and that's why the glass option is absolutely right. If i pay 2 - 3k for a PC i wanna have at least one glass side because it just looks nice and small cases aren't locked into your next drawer, they are right on your desk.


But the one problem i have with this decision is that i must buy a tinted or mirrored one separate. I think the 40$ price tag is fair, but i will have one tg panel that is doing nothing more than collecting dust in the cellar.


Money really isn't a big issue here, it's a cheap case and building in small form factors was never cheap (look at the ghost s1, haha).



Im looking forward to getting more factual information (not just a pr video from optimum tech) in the coming weeks.

This case could be an excellent choice for its price and enough clearance for premium/high end hardware.
