I'd prefer it to be bigger and to be able to create my own customised screen, rather than selecting from one of the case manufacturer's. It's the difference between seeing only the CPU temperature or seeing "everything" on one screen. £110 just to see the CPU temp (or any one other measurement) is not worth it.

This is my case but in black. Im building it this weekend. I7 12700k, tomahawk mobo and 4070 ti. Update, this case is a beginners dream case to work with. Very quality, organized and straightforward with tons of room and all necessary bits to work with. But I also want to say after all the videos of building I watched over the years I thought I would be a pro but it's really not as easy as yt videos make them out to be. The motherboard is easiest and funnest part. Setting up an air cooler for cpu is tricky so just get the real directions for whatever your cooler is cuz tou wont figure it out nor do it right winging it, truust me. Lol Arctic Freezer Duo 34 cooler seemed straightforward to me byt it wasnt and I had ro scan a qr code to get real directions which is why I didnt bother at first. Anyways another tricky part is the wiring especially and setting up the wires on mobo. I think I got all my fans setup right now finally but idk for sure. I got the 3 pins in the Jrainbow and the the 4 pins on the case fan 4 pin on mobo. Msi z690 Tomahawk ddr4 board so from what I understand the 3 pin jrainbow headers are for msi sync software to control colors. Im assuming the 4 pin is in case fan headers will allow me to control fan speed? I hope someone reads this and tells me im on right track. I dont wanna mess up my fans and mobo and it's way harder to find the information than I expected. Anyways I got everything dome so far except psu and gpu and plugging the rest of wires in and im worried about this part too cuz wires!!! And where do they go!? Oh and another thing. Half of the screws for my mobo posts too screw to case didnt fit so I used the storage card screws that fit great. Im baffled by it. No different sizes which is what I originally thought. They just wouldnt tighten in and some did. Im worried about yhat too even though its secured good but im thinking im doing something wrong maybe but I dont think so.

ive got this case using the Asus Rog Crosshair x670e gene , Ryzen 5 7600x ,7900xtx red devil , Arctic freezer ii 420mm .. To start i used 2 of the 3 included front ct 140 fans in the top and the included rear ct 140 .. Yes the arctic freezer ii 420mm is a very tight squeeze because of the thicker rad so using the included p 140 arctic fans it only just fits ( had to leave 2 of the bottom fan screws off ) i also put 2 extra p140 fans as a push pull on the rad for 2 reasons to push some more air into the vertically mounted 7900xtx red devil and to fill the case up without the second fan using the arctic 420 AIO you could easily fit up to a 37cm long GPU and easy 4 to 5 slot gpu without being to close to the TG panel as for thermals its pretty good and apart from the obvious TG panel its basically all mesh with filters .. temps are 60c gpu temp and junction is about 85c on the gpu while gaming but i can drop that with some tuning ( undervolt /fan curve ) and the cpu wont go over 84c in R23 mind you its not surprising with a huge rad and we know the x model cpus love to go straight for 95c as default !! bit on the big side but if you want a 420mm rad case thats almost all mesh this is it !! there are better options if your happy using a 360mm rad i just wanted the 420mm for the upcoming x3d cpus and the ceres 500 is a very good case for that

It's a spacious case, good airflow but it has issues. Build quality issues, design issues. Don't try to mount SSD's on that front plate or when you do and it's time to use the SATA power cable (always with three plugs on it), and the SATA mobo plugs/cables, you will come to find that you can't plug in the SATA PSU power cables because the SSD's are too flush with the surface of the mounting plate and the two attached plugs on the same cable are too close together when it's stacked on top of the other, the two plugs plug in at a slight concerning angle, (I bought a two SSD drive bracket just in case I ran into a problem and that came in real handy but I had to use cable ties to lock it down to the bottom of the case). If I didn't need a 360mm cooler for my particular CPU choice, I would never have purchased this particular case knowing about it what I know now after the build. It took me 20 hours over two days (took a few breaks), two days dealing with this case and it's issues. The first issue was when I opened up the box and the latch for the glass door fell apart, I HAD TO SUPER GLUE it together with Gorilla Glue. The inside cap was rusted and the TINY flat screw that attaches the knob you use to twist it closed and hold the door in that position would not screw into the knob. The super glue worked though and this was the fist hurdle among many others I had to overcome using this case for my last build. There are 4 teeny tiny screws holding on that glass door and I had to take that off a few times, don't lose the screws. It's easy enough to do. Good luck finding replacement screws if you do. Those big glass boxes that are popular, like the Hyte Y60, I can understand why people like that kind of case. I bought the CERES 500 with the RGB fans but I couldn't get the RGB to work, the fans work but not the RGB. My 360mm AIO has three RGB fans and that works and the white translucent fans sort of glow from the light of that and it's good enough for me.
@ericvalentine1497 Жыл бұрын
Remove one top fan just for AIO tubes, they should have designed this better..
@brassmule Жыл бұрын
I think the issue here is that the AIO should be installed with tubes down for optimal function (see Gamer's Nexus video on this topic), and if there is no room for that on the bottom then the AIO should be mounted at the top. It's not clear from this video if there is room to install the 420mm AIO on the front with tubes down, meaning it's possible that effectively the largest AIO one can use on this case is a 360 top-mounted AIO. Every other video I can find that uses a 420mm AIO installs it with tubes up, however, so either they're just doing it wrong because they don't know better, or it's not possible to install with tubes down. In the winter, my cats love to sleep on top of my current PC case with a top mounted AIO, and I think if I were to purchase this case I would at most get a 360mm AIO for it and use the top mounted solution.
