Un problème s'est produit lors du filtrage des commentaires. Veuillez réessayer ultérieurement.
les câbles de ventilos peuvent poser soucis selon comment est organisé votre CM. des prolongateurs seront peut-être nécessaires, en ce qui me concerne j'ai dut "tirer sur la corde" afin de pouvoir connecté l'un d'eux.
les visseries sont ratées. notamment celles qui servent à fixer la plaque latérale, elles ne sont pas assez longues et finissent par tourner dans le vide
heureusement il m'en restait de mon fractal design R4 plus adapté. problème réglé. néanmoins c'est un problème récurrent chez fractal puisque mon R4 a aussi été affublé du même problème... à bon entendeur mr fractal...
il y a quand même des points positifs, notamment la présence de filtres au niveau de toutes les sorties d'aérations, de l'espace très suffisant pour y caler un bon ventirad d'une hauteur d'au moins 165mm (j'ai un silent wing 120mm sur mon ventirad et ça rentre), ainsi que pour une bonne carte graphique.
tous les panneaux sont en métal, ainsi que le mesh frontal. les led bleu/blanc sont d'un bel effet, très sobre.
les ventilos d'origines sont plus silencieux que prévus, on n'est pas au niveau de mon R4 orienté silence mais c'est un bel effort quand même.
il y a encore des baies 3.5" pour un lecteur physique, toujours utile quoi qu'on en dise et qui a tendance à disparaitre sur les boitiers récents.
en gros 2/3 soucis ou point de détails qui avec un peu de jugeotte ou de système D peuvent se régler mais pas parfait non plus. il ne mérite pas un 4 sur 5 mais un 3.7 n'était pas possible avec le système de notation, trop de défauts de conception mais je tiens aussi compte de son prix inferieur à 50€ au moment de l'achat. 20€ de plus (toutes le couleurs ne sont pas au même prix) et c'était un 3 étoiles car la concurrence fait mieux pour ce prix là.
La partie transparente est en plastique basique, l'armature en tôle d'aluminium fine, voire fragile par endroits.
Le filetage est vraiment de très mauvaise qualité.
Il n'y a pas de filtre sous la tour, les emplacements pour disques durs rendent l'accès aux câbles assez difficile, la façade avant n'est maintenue que par 2 pins au lieu de 4 habituellement...
Passé les défauts, outre son prix cette tour a 3 avantages majeurs : esthétique, compatibilité et airflow.
Je la trouve très belle en blanc, le design est sobre mais les lignes sont assez originales (ça reste mon avis);
Elle peut accommoder les cartes graphiques jusqu'à 35cm de long et les ventirads de 15cm de hauteur (peut-être même plus);
Enfin, l'airflow est efficace grâce à un agencement intelligent des éléments.
L'air arrive de face par toute la façade (et pas de biais et/ou sur la moitié de la tour, comme c'est souvent le cas), puis grâce à l'absence d'obstacle il arrive directement sur la carte graphique et le radiateur du processeur pour ressortir de l'autre côté, vu que le bloc d'alimentation et les HDD sont situés tout en bas.
J'ai personnellement préféré installer des Noctua à la place des ventilateurs d'origine, mais ils feront l'affaire pour peu que le combo GPU/CPU ne chauffe pas trop de base.
En conclusion, un rapport qualité-prix plus que correct.

On a deux support de disques, large suffisant pour un pc entrée de gamme à part si vous voulez faire un serveur. Le boitier est très sobre, pas de led kikoo mais un équilibre au niveau des couleurs, la face avant filtre entièrement la poussière et laisse également deux emplacement pour lecteur DVD / Bluray.
Il y a un emplacement à l'arrière pour un ventilo 120mm et sur le haut du boitier. Ils ont tous leurs propres filtres a poussières, mème pour l'alim en bas ! le seul qui est sans filtre est à l'arrière du boitier mais généralement utilisé pour l'extraction de l'air chaud depuis l'intérieur donc pas besoin de filtre. Le SLI ou crossfire est également possible, le boitier est assez long pour pouvoir avoir de grandes carte graphiques genre 1070 / 1080ti / voir titan pour les grosses bourses, donc pas de souci de ce niveau la. Après le boitier vise la qualité avec un prix abordable donc pas forcement adapté pour les très très grosses configs. Je pense qu'un watercooling custom est compliqué à envisager, par contre un watercooling AIO est largement installable même en 2x120mm. Quelques dernières précisions, les ventilos d'origine sont très discret voir inaudible, un sans faute jusque la et l'arrière du boitier laisse un emplacement a disque dur 2.5 ou SSD 2.5 avec des serres câbles fourni et de l'espace pour poser proprement les câbles.
Je l'ai utilisé pour la config entrée de gamme de mon ami:
- Ryzen 3 1300x --< 27 à 30 degrès avec le ventilo d'origine au repos donc de très bonne températures pour le boitier !
- C.M : Asrock A320m PRO4
- GPU: GTX 1050 TI STRIX OC
- RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4 en 2133 mhz cas 14
- Alim: EVGA 450 BT bronze
- H.D.D: 1TB Western digital
Bonne continuation dans votre build ! et Amazon impeccable comme d'hab !

For fans, you can have 2x 120 or 140mm in the front, 2x 120mm at the top and a 120mm at the back. The case includes 2x three-pin, white LED, 120mm fans on the front, which run quietly. The front panel is removable to clean the mesh and separate from the case IO and fans (unlike my previous Fractal case), although I found it catches on the front plate of the DVD drive I installed. The top fan mounts have two 120mm filters screwed in (also have holes for 90mm fans I think). The bottom has a coarser filter clipped into place, covering the power supply and drive cage area, which should catch fibres but probably not dust.
The 3.5" drive cage is a neat setup, with two clip-in trays that have pins in rubber grommets that hold the drive, providing both screw-free installation and vibration damping. If you have 2.5" drives, you can screw them to the tray, including on the underside so you can still fit a 3.5" on the rubber mounts (I have four drives on the two trays in this way). I recommend buying a 3.5" to 2.5" adapter if you aren't putting a 3.5" drive in the tray, otherwise it's a bit loose. This cage can be removed (four screws on the bottom, one screw to the motherboard tray) for long power supplies, an extra 120mm fan on the bottom or even better airflow.
Cable management is decent, with plenty of cutouts in good locations for my microATX board. Some of the cutouts have rolled edges and none of them are sharp, but no rubber grommets here. The space behind the motherboard tray is sufficient, I'd have liked an extra half a centimetre or so of depth. There are a few anchor points for cable ties, enough to hold things in shape but not enough for beautiful layout.
The case feels pretty sturdy and is well finished. As well as some extra cable management space, a cover for the power supply and drive cage would give it a more polished finish. However that's something I can add pretty easily if I want to, and not having it makes building and using the case easier. Considering everything else this case does well at less than £50, I'm very happy with it.
Space is good inside. All my components went in ok with room around.
Why the 1 star? Cheap screws, the ones that spin and spin and spin. If you have to take your mother board out well then your in trouble.... Outer case covers have thumb screws that are part of the cover. Think about the pain when as outer case cover wants to do the Spin routine. The screws are a major let down. I have had to use a pair of pliers to pry off the rear cover and yes damaged the red paint. Pop to BnQ for red paint is
Same issues with screws on motherboard***
What a pain. When you cannot remove the motherboard due to a spinning screw.
Replaced all screws * others have indicated this issue. Bag of screws worth 4 stars .
Dont use screws supplied
Installation was tricky and it took me a few hours to put everything together and try keep it tidy. I initially struggles with the brass standoffs as they only turned halfway then required brute force to fully screw into the case. I ended up with a big blister doing this as the case doesn't offer enough room to use a wrench.
I got everything installed and the case offers a decent amount of size and is fairly Intuitive in terms of layout.
Unfortunately cable management at the rear of the case is severely hampered by the bizarre decision to not have the rear case wall featuring a depth area to allow cables to hide behind. The rear case wall on my case simply won't shut now due to cable thickness, which is a real shame as the interior is very clean and clutter free.
In terms of temperatures and airflow this case is brilliant, easily the best I've ever used. My gtx 980ti at full load is under 50c which for an air cooled graphics card is frankly unbelievable. Given this was my main reason for using this case, I would say the benefits outweigh the drawbacks but I wouldn't look forward to using this case in future if building for someone else.
Pros:
Excellent airflow
Aesthetically beautiful
2x 5.25" drive bays for disc drive/fan controller
Low price case
Cons:
Motherboard standoffs extremely temperamental to install.
HDD caddy is too close to front of the case meaning you cannot use a 4th fan on a front 240mm radiator.
Rear cable management is impossible due to no depth from the rear case cover and virtually no cable tie anchor points.
Only 1 SSD mount point on the rear.
All in all I would say the benefits of this case in terms of looks and airflow/low temps outweigh the negatives given the price, however be prepared for a frustrating build if your looking to do some cable management.

My PC was previously in an old, cube case which wasn't really big enough for a full-size graphics card, and the airflow inside it was terrible. This case has plenty of space inside, and also has routing for all the cables behind the motherboard, so you can't see most of the mess.
Speaking of cable management, I'm baffled by some of the reviews complaining about short cables for the PSU, and, "completely wrong internal wiring". There isn't any internal wiring - all the cables are part of the PSU or the computer itself, not the case. The only cables that come with the case are for the front panel interface - a couple of USB headers, the power / reset switch / HDD activity LED cables, and the front audio interface cable. All of those are much longer than I needed. I will complain that the HDD activity LED is obnoxiously bright. It's white, and really distracting when it flashes.
To be fair, I'm using a microATX motherboard. A full ATX will cover up some of the cable access holes slightly, so maybe that's what people are upset about. I found there is plenty of room for all the power cables under the motherboard, and there are even loops in the baseplate for zip-ties (which are included). You just have to think carefully about how you route the cables, and don't just stuff everything in.
The case came with two LED fans installed. They were fairly quiet, but only had three-pin connectors and a very limited range of speeds. I swapped them out for my preferred, silent fans, which have 4-pin PWM plugs. It's easy to do - the front fascia unclips easily and the fans are just screwed to the front chassis.
The front fascia can be installed either way up, and it also appears that the 5.25" internal bays can be re-located to the bottom of the case by unscrewing the front panel of the chassis and refitting it upside-down. I haven't tested the theory, but I am fairly certain that you can reconfigure the case to put the 5.25" bays at the bottom instead of the top if you prefer it that way.
In addition to the two supplied fans in the front, there is also space for a single 120mm fan at the rear and two on top. You should be able to put an AIO cooler in any of these spaces, although it's a bit tight at the top. I'm air-cooled for now, so I have two inlet fans at the front and a single exhaust fan at the rear. A few quick tests in 3dMark confirm that my cooling is significantly better than my old case, but that wouldn't be difficult. The old case was basically a small oven.
The power supply lives at the bottom of the case, which is a great idea. I'm used to the old tower cases where the PSU is at the top, and sucks up the already-warm air from inside the case. I suppose they used to do it like that because the power supply was often the only fan in the whole case.
This setup is much better - the PSU draws its air from under the case (there is a mesh-covered hole in the bottom, directly under the PSU's fan inlet). The air goes through the PSU and straight out of the back without ever entering the case. Just make sure you sit the case on a solid surface, not a carpet which could block the hole underneath.
Assembly was easy - at least compared with trying to cram everything into a cube case like it was before. All the hardware is supplied, including motherboard risers and a tool to install them. I didn't have any problems with spinning risers or stripped threads, but I'm an engineer and I know when to stop turning the screwdriver. I was actually pleasantly surprised by how neatly I could tidy away all the cables. The only cable that's really obvious is the 8-pin power for the GPU, and that's only because nVidia decided to put it in a stupid place on the FE cards. Why did they put it on the top?!
At the bottom of the case there is a caddy for two 3.5" HDD. I populated it with a single HDD, and two 3.5" SSDs in an adapter tray. They clip into plastic inserts and slide in. There is a cutout in the panel so you can route the cables straight to the back of the drive. Just take care you don't crush the cable or unplug it as you slide the drive in. There is another 3.5" SSD drive space under the motherboard. I didn't need to use this, but if you did, you would need to fit it before the motherboard goes in. To be honest, if you needed more drives, you would be better off putting them in the 5.25" bay. If you already have both of those bays full, and you STILL need space for a fourth hard drive, you should be looking for a server case.
Visually, the case looks really good. I bought the red one, because everything I own is red, and also because it was considerably cheaper than the other colours. At the £45 I paid, I think this case is good value. The only other cases I could find with the dual 5.25" front bays were well over £100. Or beige. Or both.
However, it's not perfect. As others have mentioned, the screws that hold on the side panels are really naff. The window is plastic, which doesn't really bother me. The description mentions that, "Power supply shroud and Modular Storage Plate conceal HDD trays and excess cabling for a clean, clutter-free interior". No, they don't, at least not in my case. I didn't get any of that. Nevertheless, the PSU and HDD caddy are similar heights, and there's just enough room for my Funko Pop band to strut their stuff without getting their hair sucked into the GPU fans.
Overall, I really like this case. It's not the best-quality case ever, but once assembled it does exactly what I needed it to, and it looks really good. I'm happy with the discounted price I paid (about £45), but at the full £75 it's a bit expensive. Most importantly, it offers two, full-sized drive bays for optional drives and I/O bays. Not everyone needs those, but if you do, you have very limited options.

Overall, I really like this case. It's not the best-quality case ever, but once assembled it does exactly what I needed it to, and it looks really good. I'm happy with the discounted price I paid (about £45), but at the full £75 it's a bit expensive. Most importantly, it offers two, full-sized drive bays for optional drives and I/O bays. Not everyone needs those, but if you do, you have very limited options.
Still has 5 1/4 " bays
Only one 2.5" mount point behind Mobo
Flimsy dust covers (especially on the bottom)
Awkward & flimsy 3.5" bays
Small cable mgmt holes without rubber grommets
A generally cheap feel to the actual case
Lack of exhaust fan
A "non" window version, some of us want a cool case rather than one with a huge plastic window
In my opinion this is a fantastic case for the money. I would personally never use it for my main computer because I'd rather pay an extra £20-30 you can get the define-S or for £40-50 more you can get the define R5 or R6. That whole define range is incredibly better in build quality and features. This PC case is good for side-projects, perfect!
