    I'm using a Tower 300 as well. I have the black version. Swapped over from an Asus AP201. Had to have it once I saw it. I love the uniqueness of it. The verticality of it all with the components mounted sideways and the angled glass. It just looks so cool.
    I strongly recommend running both the side/AIO fans and the bottom fan as intakes with the top fans as the exhaust. I have tried multiple configurations and this has been the best for thermals. Only having the one bottom fan as an intake isn't very efficient because of the location. It's trying to pull air through a section with a warm power supply and bundled up cables. The side panel where the AIO goes (or just fans if you're air cooling) has a filter there so running intake shouldn't cause too much extra dust and it will more reliably pull in fresh air that will naturally be pulled across all the components as the exhausts at the top lifts it all back out.

    Legitimately loved the review. Kyler is probably more representative of the majority of PC building in this particular video's "everything that can go wrong will go wrong" motif. Not editing out all of the frustrating stuff better prepares people for some of the potential issues or pitfalls, so we can avoid them (hopefully.) That makes PC building less scary.

    Thanks for the review of the case! I have purchased one and will also be doing a 7800X3D build in it. I thought is was great form factor for me since my setup has my case on the left side of the desk and opposed to having one of those completely flipped cases, this was a cool option. Did you have to do any cable extensions since rear i/o runs from the top and down the back and out?

    • @go5go
      @go5go Місяць тому

      I built the computer and I confirm the gripes: running cables to the "back" I/O and GPU is a pain as you have to pop the whole top off and flip the fan holder off to get there! The running a few of the MB connections on the left side and had to loosen a couple of the screws to get the connector through. Other things, the included case fans are noisy! I went with the LCD panel and was a bit disappointed on the functionality/customization as I had hoped to put multiple data points (multiple temp/load items) on the screen at the same time. Nope. Also would be nice to either have the "front panel" on the bottom as this is a desktop tower that sits quite high and even worse for me it sits on top of other equipment. I do like how basically all panels can be taken off fairly easily and I do like how it all looks with my desk arrangement!

    Great! Sounds like the tower 400 is gonna be an amazing case to get when you can access the I/O easily without breaking the fan/possibly cutting yourself along with other stupid design choices like riveting the plate while having cutouts for project zero boards 😂

    • @helldog3105
      @helldog3105 2 місяці тому

      My thought was that since they are all front panel connectors and fan headers, you would thread those cables through the hole, connect them to the motherboard, pull them back as you mount the motherboard into the case, making it easy to attach all of the headers, without having to deal with that solid riveted plate. I plan to get one of these myself in the coming months, I will have to try and that see how it works.

    EDIT* I am not giving up my King 95 Pro for any case, regardless how cool it looks. I waited 3 years for something with function, style and was art- skipping the entire hyte/lian li builds that were okay but too much or ran too hot.

  • @zeemon9623
    @zeemon9623 2 місяці тому

    Having SOME airflow vs none is often going to be enough to tame a gaming computer. The internal case temperature may end up somewhat higher but that just means the exhausted air is also hotter. Unless completely suffocated you won't need to overthink case airflow. If case airflow would make such a huge difference there wouldn't be so freaking many tempered glass cases out there. They'd bring back side panel fans to increase performance.
