never redundant, please do them all!!! I have nowhere I can see these in person, and so many people don't show them in context. Those videos are like a floating head video only for pcs, sigh.

Thanks! Was alot of fun, I was a little skeptical at first if it was legit, I mean who would send me something? But they were awesome to deal with, and didn't try to influence me at all in my review.

On the aqua 3 the 2 top fans are exhaust, it’s for a negative pressure cooling and pulls air through the perforated basement

Ok cool, I haven't gone hands on with one yet. I'm curious as to how well that works, but I do like the small profile of the case maybe I will have to try one out.

@@CasualTechReview It’s nice, I think the aqua 5 looks better but the aqua 3s cheaper for flips, wishing it came with the long screws for the bottom fans. Thanks for the review and love the vids!

Nice case, nice build and nice review. Only complaint I have about the build is that the 240mm aio is better served when shifted to the rear of the case. Right now, it is in line with and is immediately exhausting intake air before the air has a chance to cool the interior of the case. If it is installed toward the back of the case, it will exhaust the heat coming directly below from the GPU. Otherwise, nice build.

@CasualTechReview 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for the feedback. I did actually mount the AIO in a few different places, and it didn't affect the thermals at all. Mounted closer to the front, cable management was easier and looked better. In a more powerful system with components generating more heat, I would be more inclined to mount in the back. Thanks for watching!

@rathstar 3 ай бұрын

@@CasualTechReviewWe're to tempted to make the AIO the intake at the side of the case and move the fans there to the top ? CPU tempts would be better having cooler air going through the AIO.

@CasualTechReview 3 ай бұрын

@rathstar I did consider that, but honestly it's just not necessary for these components.

@rathstar 3 ай бұрын

Great review. Unfortunately in the UK the Okinos is £126, but for $73 in the US it looks like a steal. Particularly like the white motherboard connectors and the full covered PSU shroud which makes cable management easier, particularly if using cable extensions.

@@CasualTechReview it was a pretty nice case! I ended up using a 360mm AIO and switching the RGB fans down to the bottom because top fans don’t really get seen much. (I had extra long screws from the AIO) and it was a 13600kf + RTX 3080 ftw3 it sold for $1100 left me roughly $315 profit!

Great video, keep it up! I've listed my first pc about a month ago and I just don't get any messages/attention, I partially think it's because I don't have a real fb account with a history, so I made a new one and I think people don't want to trust a new account with no friends/history. The pc is priced pretty well but still it gets no attention, I just want to sell one so I can start making more and get ramping up but it just won't sell.

@zland6562 for sure, it's all about value. For higher end builds with graphics cards that need to be kept cooler i will put additional intake fans in. When doing flips I'm always thinking about the overall value of the build. Higher end builds get better components.

Hello, this case is nice but i cant seem to put the top part of the back panel on, how did you do it?

@CasualTechReview 11 күн бұрын

@ShrimpyManZ you have to make sure you don't have any cables pushing the back panel off, line it up and slide it back before screwing the panel back on.

@CasualTechReview 3 ай бұрын

@andreamazzurco1524 I don't, I happy with my sales volume local and it seems easier than dealing with shipping. Maybe if I want to sell more I'd look into that. I barely have enough to flip 2 or 3 and do youtube.

@electroman11 3 ай бұрын

what would you prefer, an ARGB controller or a in-case anti sag gpu bracket? I actually believe than in these days with huge gpus I would heavily prefer a gpu support.

@CasualTechReview 3 ай бұрын

@electroman11 great question. Two reasons why I would say argb hub. First, they are more expensive then a gpu support. Second, if it has a controller it is probably also able to connect to the reset or led switch on the front io. I think people like simplicity, and there's nothing simpler then changing the rgb by hitting a button on the case. But I agree, I use alot of gpu supports in my builds, especially with 3 fan cards.
