Fantastic case with USB-C connectivity and lots of space for a MATX case. Classic design for any environment. Stop reading this and just purchase! For my build, I purchased the Black version. Super awesome. MB: ASUS ROG STRIX Z690-G with Intel i7-12700KF - 32 GB DDR5 AND PREDATOR BIFROST Intel® Arc™ A770 OC - Super Happy with my build!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing mATX case! Enough room for my EVGA GTX 1080 Ti Hybrid, NZXT Kraken 240, and standard sized 820w PSU. I have 2x 30mm thick Antec 120mm fans at the bottom as main intake, the Hybrid GPU radiator as exhaust in the rear, relocated the preinstalled 120mm case fan to the top, and the Kraken fans set to exhaust also, so going with a negative pressure setup. Temperatures are excellent, with no manual overclocking:
@load GPU: max ~56C
@load CPU Ryzen 7 3700X: max ~60C
@load CPU Ryzen 7 3700X: max ~60C
The case is very easy to build in. The PSU is modular - hiding cables just below the outputs is simple, enough room behind the motherboard to route and cleanly Velcro or cable tie cables. Case includes a fairly long PSU power cord extension, since the PSU port for the outlet is internal. Word of advise: if you're using a modular PSU, establish how many cables you'll need to use and preinstall them before mounting the PSU. This will make it easier to route them. Large cutout for the CPU cooler on the rear will make it easy to switch out the cooler down the line.
Panels are all tool-less, and snap on and off easily but not so much that they'll just pop off randomly. Here's a plus too - ASUS included some extra panel pin clips in case the ones on the case break.
ALL panels are ventilated! The main intake for the motherboard area (bottom) includes a removable mesh dust filter. Fantastic! Front intake for the PSU will need to be monitored of dust build-up, though, as it doesn't include a filter. But honestly, that's not a huge issue since you can just blow air at the front without much effort. And popping off the bottom filter to clean the intake is not much harder.
ASUS doesn't sell very many cases, but this one is for sure a winner!

Easy to work in good room for the footprint it has. I wish there was included dust filters for the top and bottom. It would be nice to have an included space for the bottom fan mounts to give more space to prevent turbulence from generating a unpleasant noise. Would recommend this case with those minor issues and hard suggest this with those minor issues addressed.

Pleasantly surprised, but slightly disappointed?

This is not a bad case overall. The assembly is solid and accessibility is good. My only real complaint revolves around the two templated 3.5" drive mounting positions at the bottom of the case. Regardless of orientation, there was no solid way to mount "properly" in any orientation. I'm not sure if this is a flaw in the design overall, or a specific issue in my case, so I can't be too harsh about it. However, it seems more likely that the case was designed explicitly for 2.5" drives first and treated 3.5" as an afterthought without proper verification.

The case is sleek, however the power supply mounting at the front means you cannot vertically mount a gpu. Not much of a problem, just a small limitation.
