So far the best case I ever owned
Great quality, spacious. Easy to work in the fans that come with it are decent. No temperature issues even though I have a 14700k. It's a bit big for a midsize Tower but definitely worth it.

Great case at sale price. - Quiet and Pretty!
Got this during prime days and paired it with BeQuiet AIO - Very happy overall. It's large/roomy and cooling seems to be topnotch. 4 RGB Fans included (Cause "Pretty" runs better of course!) I like the looks and the perforated metal mesh panels. Included Fan Controller with enough spaces for all 3 fans on the AIO. Nice Cable Management/room. BeQuiet products have been solid! - Cases, Coolers, and Power Supplies - I've used them all. One of my top brands these days.

Excellent case when on sale around $80
I feel that price informs value and try to include the price paid in all my reviews. I encourage everyone to do the same as more information is always better when shopping. In this case, I paid $79.99.This was my answer to "Where do I get a cheap case that can fit an arctic 420mm AIO and not be crowded?" I have used be quiet cases in the past and this case moves my main rig out of it's 500dx case. Lots of very similar DNA between the two and that's not a bad thing.Pros: very spacious, easy to access filters, lots of fan size/placement options. Subjectively, I just like how everything works in bequiet cases.Cons: No major ones at all about the case. I don't believe I have ever purchased a bequiet case that didn't come out of the box with a scratch on the glass panel. Not a deal-breaker for me, but as this is consistent over prolly half a dozen cases, it's worth noting if that bothers you. I wish they included their newest fans, but they are a generation back.As of this review the price is ridiculous, it is competing with the "expensive" large cases which means you should probably shop elsewhere, but when they put it back down to $80 it's time to buy.

Excellent quality case
Runs a bit large for a 'mid tower', but it's built solidly, easy to work in, and has really nice airflow once you configure your fans properly, thumbs up all the way, highly recommended!!

Amazing Case with Great Features!
I absolutely love the *be quiet! Shadow Base 800 FX*! The airflow is excellent, keeping my components cool even during intense gaming sessions. The ARGB lighting and included Light Wings 140mm PWM fans add a stunning visual touch to my setup. The build quality is top-notch, and it was easy to work with while assembling my PC. For the price, this case is an outstanding choice. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish and functional gaming PC case!

Great Case!
I love pretty much everything about this case! It's big enough that you aren't struggling to do cable management, but small enough you aren't trying to figure out where to put it. The fans a dead quiet (hence the name) and I love it! They also look sweet! With the setup I built, the loudest part of it is an external hard drive that is only plugged in occasionally. I would recommend you pick it up if you're looking for a case. The only things that caused me some trouble were trying to figure out which screws were for the motherboard, and how to use software to adjust the light color. I think the manual could be updated, but once I got them figured out I was ecstatic.

Great PC Case For A Great Price!
Let me say that this Mid size Tower is the biggest I have ever seen. This really should be considered a Full Sized Tower. (Which if you have limited space might be a problem?) When it says it supports 420mm, it will, though I had to use a smaller fan on the back side of the Case. However, this Case offers you 3 180mm (I believe) fans to cool your system, and adding other factors in (PSU, GPU, CPU cooling) this case has plenty of air flow to keep the heat out! For a regular ATX and 420mm, my setup fit perfectly in this case, and still offer enough room for a decent sized GPU and more! If you are looking for a spacey, decent price, PC Case, then this is the one for you!

This is a full tower hiding as a mid tower
I love the ability to rotate the rear panel to have a vertical or horizontal GPU. 420mm rads on top and front at the same time. I put a 360mm on top. 430 mm GPU clearance back to front. Great build quality over all. The not so great. A case big enough to be a full server and no drive sleds. A lot of people use 3.5" drives as a raid backup. Music ,movie or whatever libraries. A whole family of Hobbits could live in this thing. I Redneck engineered a couple temporarily ugly but functional. $200 asking price with no drive storage, That is just lazy or cheap ass design. If they sell them, bet the will $29 each.
