When it comes to these builds, I would love to see temperatures for the GPU and CPU in stock (no overclocking) so we can see how cool it get while on Idle & Load.
I don't know when I'll build another PC but I love this build, especially the case. I like that there are 3D prints that you can add to the holes in this case. When I do rebuild my PC this is the case I'm going to use.
Fantastic! Build Matt, I do indeed like this chassis :-). Dang! that air flow is some thing else. The smoke just bellowed out of every orifice during the visualization test. Possibly one of the better air flow chassis I've seen to date. Muchly enjoyed all content as always. Your creativity never ceases to amaze! Cheers - Jass & Jacqui E.
Just built a system with this case and am very happy with it. The instructions are a bit scattered but far from as bad as some youtubers say, and honestly, if you can't build a case this simple, you might want to give a second thought about building your own system. The design, materials, paint and fit quality are excellent. It's compact and has huge breathing room (it's 07/07/2024 and mine already came with the higher flow dust filters). I did purchase fans for the bottom of the case to make it a positive pressure chamber. After my experience I bought three more for systems I'm building. If you want a very compact full ATX case with great configuration flexibility, I'd highly recommend the Qube 500.
Edit: cybernetics gave this PSU a very good review. I wonder if a better choice for the PSU could have been considered. My concern is that this PSU already has a fine mesh for intake, which may put more strain on its fan compared to other PSUs with a more open vent. Combined with the QUBE 500’s many small air passages, this could potentially increase the PSU fan speed, leading to more noise. Nevertheless, I believe this is a good PSU overall, and as always, this build is beautiful. I’m trying to build something similar while keeping budget constraints in mind.☕️🖤
befor some weeks i looked for a new itx case i see some of the flatpacked cases is was thinking nice idea and then i see the aerocool dryft v2 and a was thinking sytle over footprint! :D
Hey! I also bought and built that case. Awesome experience! I used a 240 AIO instead of an air cooler though. Tried to fit a 280, but didn't work out because the radiator was bumping into the PSU and I decided to abort that experiment. Anyway, any specific reason why you went with an air cooler? Can you please share your CPU Package temperatures while playing? Also, any reason why you used 120 fans instead of 140? The case seems to support the slightly bigger diameter. Thanks a lot and keep it up! 👍
i think a modern case should have the motherboard outputs facing downward on top of the psu...... also 140mm fans... tried a ton of itx stuff and everything below 140 gets loud!
nice build! well done as always! btw what do you think about the relative new fans Be Quiet! Silent Wings 4 Pro? only seen them in one of your builds when you did the h7 build with a rx 7900xt spec. also those fans comes with 3 def corners. what corners would you recommand front and back of the case
bro you are the most best pc builder i see from uk this request from me please do water cooled pc bro i like you building water cooled builds so please do it bro please 🥲😁😀
I think it's not a coincidence.. Want to build my first PC after around 20 years and I came across this case this morning. My first thought was you Mr Matt Lee. How would you build it? Just to come home to see this video :) Awesome as always, truly appreciate your work.. everything is so clean and pleasing to watch. Thank you!
Welcome to the club. I am in the exact same boat. I built one PC for my son about 3 years ago. Side note, I’ve been a Mac user since 1987 and I’ve come to the gradual realization that apple now builds needlessly closed hardware which put me on the fence. Since discovering this channel I took the leap and am now in the midst of buying parts to build a replica of this machine. This love this build.
This is a geniously designed case in many levels. You build is as you go, making placing components and pluging in tiny connectors a dream. It has modularity built in with those holes. Hopefully cooler master makes replacement panels to customize the case. Also, the shipping footprint is tiny, they can ship more cases and have more stock in stores.
Just came across your channel and finished binging majority of your videos; I also subbed. Do you plan on doing a white version of the thermal take pc case x noctua?
The SFF has too many compromises for me to justify the smaller footprint. I am sure in some situations it is called for but for most, it is just a challenge This is portable(relatively)and except at the highest level without compromise on the parts you can use. For me this may be perfect, I wanted the smallest nice case I could fit an ATX Board( EVA 2 Asus) for a nice theme build. I already have a Corsair 7000d but am undecided if I go David or Goliath for a theme build. I have no space concerns but sadly I do have budget considerations so can only make one every few years.
You built this case so cleanlyyyy. Not to rag on other pc builders on youtube... but this is probably what cooler master was aiming for when sending this case out😂 HOWEVER... I seem to recall that you can place a handle in the front to protect the front ports... you might want to consider placing it there... Personal anecdote.. I think our cleaning lady was having a bad day.. but she sent my ssd flying across the room with a force as strong as a furious hurricane 😅 I do hobby video editing and all my files for the past 10 years, along with some family pics and past pets are gone.. It's been a week, and it still hurts😅😂🥲😭 darn it hurts 😭
I’ve been watching so closely at your videos these last months as to what case to get after the tempered glass on my 011 Dynamic shattered to see what there is out there and this may be my next choice, not sure if you have a build don’t yet in the antec P120 crystal but would be more than stoked if you did. Much love MML and I always ditch whatever video I’m watching whenever I see an upload notification from you ❤
I’ve actually built in the Antec P120 Crystal a couple of times but sadly not on UA-cam as it was before I found my feet here 😮💨 That said, I’d be more than happy to get a fresh build with it on the channel very soon for sure! Stoked to have you here watching my videos every week too. The support is felt 🫶🫶
@@Mr_Matt_Lee I always do my best to support people no matter who they are or what their passion is. You sir have gotten me out of really bad days and I have watched I am fairly certain almost every video and have I’m pretty sure even followed you on other socials
Edit: looks like a DeepCool FH-04. Can someone please confirm if at precisely 7:27 (you’ll need to pause) a fan hub is positioned to the far right edge of the back of the machine? It has what I believe are 4 PWM cables feeding into it. The ‘hub’ is rectangular and has a strong specular highlight that should help you identify it. As far as I was able to learn, the QUBE 500 doesn’t ship with a fan hub and am wondering which one I should buy as it’s not listed in the BOM listed in the video’s description.
Love this build. The flatpack is definitely an interesting idea I would love to give a shot. Looked like it made the build a LOT easier to organize and clean up. :) Possible to get an AMD GPU in the mix every so often?
If IKEA did PC cases! Am glad to see there weren't pieces left over at the end of the build! Exceptional video as always Matt. Keep up the excellent work.
Thanks to this video I bought this case and was able to easily set it up and get running. It's pretty intuitive with a video, but the manual is...a lot. I put in a 12900KF, and MSI 4090 Suprim Liquid cooler. The only downside was CPU&MB power runs alongside a GPU AIO. If you make an error, you'll have to undo something, so be careful with AIOs and PSUs with short power cables.
It is a great successor of Cooler Master MasterBox Q500L case, that solve it biggest issue - unable to setup long PSU with modern video cards longer than 360mm.
I mean ... thank you for the video. but what a horrible case to buy lol. not so much user friendly, PSU covering the CPU fan flow and blocking air from front. i get it, its different. but its SO not for me lol
that modular case + airflow focus case full of holes on all side, Top has enough clearance to mount AIO plus that's a case that is really easy to clean during maintenance and trouble shoot since its FULL modular. TBH if it were me i remove all those filters its clearly a high positive airflow case dust will be blown out of the case and that will increase airflow by doing so and you can lower RPM and get a more silent system then again cleaning maintenance with that case is EZ.
I did not see any dampening material besides the gummy pads on the fans. Screwing metal on metal with all those vibrations, you are going to expect a lot of noise after a few weeks of use... It would be nice to have a long term / real world review. But it's going to be hard to have a regular PC user to daily-drive it and then upload a video.
Finalmente criaram o que eu vinha querendo / imaginando durante anos, um gabinete criado pensando em praticidade ao invés de visual mirabolante e "gamer".
two exhaust on top, turn cpu fans around and use the back exhaust as dedicated intake for the CPU cooler as you are doing with the gpu - see temps improve....
Greetings Mr. Matt Lee, please will you have the measurements of the packaging where the case comes from? to be able to calculate the freight, Thank you.
With that many meshes, I'm surprised it gets air at all haha. It's a cool case, but is it not important to have a through-and-through path for air with air cooled towers?
I'm 1:16 into the video and I'm already giving a thumbs up like for presentation. Nice. I just got this case myself last week and I am very impressed. It can work as both a conventional pc case or a work benchtop. Whoever designed this was a pure genius.
Very nice. I like the fact the case isn't covered in rgb fans or lights. Colored lights don't make the pc run better or make the build easier all they do is increase the price for no real gain, except for looking puurrrddeee.
The only thing i dislike with that case is the placement of the power supply and that the exchaust is inside but other than that it is a great looking case
@@Mr_Matt_Lee yeah, it's so good, obliterates any game I try so far! and the curved screen is so immersive! Been playing the new company of heroes, and victoria 3 - starting wars in Europe as Belgium haha!
Lets therapy begins. Mr Matt Lee my non official therapist :D We are love you my friend. Thank you so much for video and by the way after this video i start digging the Qube 500 :D If i get bored soon from my Asus TUF Gaming GT502 i can go with this compact case. Thank you again.
Great video once again. And you showcased (pun intended) the build up of the case awesomely. Now I‘m thinking of getting one of those for the next build. 🤩
One of the most satisfying and well-done build videos I have ever seen! Amazing work. I'm not sure I like the placement CM chose for the PSU, it's an aesthetically unimpressive component to put out on display like that.
When it comes to these builds, I would love to see temperatures for the GPU and CPU in stock (no overclocking) so we can see how cool it get while on Idle & Load.
I build my own gaming PCs since 1994 and this, I find to be absolutely acceptable, thank you.
I don't know when I'll build another PC but I love this build, especially the case. I like that there are 3D prints that you can add to the holes in this case. When I do rebuild my PC this is the case I'm going to use.
Wow... this case is something else. About time we see some innovation in the PC space
I agree with this 🖤
That case is so hot…. My jonsbo D31 is dead to me now.
First thing I thought too..modular PC case now that changes things up. Might be too complicated for the less savvy but options for those who can.
Would like to see the InWin Dubili, it’s also a flat-pack case! The gold color could go very nicely with Noctua.
Fantastic! Build Matt, I do indeed like this chassis :-). Dang! that air flow is some thing else. The smoke just bellowed out of every orifice during the visualization test. Possibly one of the better air flow chassis I've seen to date. Muchly enjoyed all content as always. Your creativity never ceases to amaze! Cheers - Jass & Jacqui E.

Hi i want to start my own homelab for simple stuff and i have an atx motherboard laying around. Does this case has a decent amount of 3.5 hd slots ?
The jigsaw puzzle case 🤣 thanks for another great video!

Cool case❤
befor some weeks i looked for a new itx case i see some of the flatpacked cases is was thinking nice idea and then i see the aerocool dryft v2 and a was thinking sytle over footprint! :D
Very nice Build
Hey! I also bought and built that case. Awesome experience!
I used a 240 AIO instead of an air cooler though. Tried to fit a 280, but didn't work out because the radiator was bumping into the PSU and I decided to abort that experiment.
Anyway, any specific reason why you went with an air cooler? Can you please share your CPU Package temperatures while playing?
Also, any reason why you used 120 fans instead of 140? The case seems to support the slightly bigger diameter.
Thanks a lot and keep it up! 👍
How are your temps with the mesh in place? I am also thinking of getting a 240 aio for this
Very tempting setup, is there room for a couple of 2.5 ssd’s?
I love this build❤
i think a modern case should have the motherboard outputs facing downward on top of the psu...... also 140mm fans... tried a ton of itx stuff and everything below 140 gets loud!
Hello, good video, I liked the quality, do you think it has space for the COOLER COOLER MASTER AIR MA824 STEALTH?
nice build! well done as always! btw what do you think about the relative new fans Be Quiet! Silent Wings 4 Pro? only seen them in one of your builds when you did the h7 build with a rx 7900xt spec. also those fans comes with 3 def corners. what corners would you recommand front and back of the case
Really cool 😉
What an awesome video! But can u tell me where I can find the used wallpaper?
You are the Goat 🐐
How's the airflow on this? I heard from other reviews that the include mesh panels really suck for letting air through.
I will be having a big anxiety for that PSU over the GPU.
other wise the case is cool.
Where you find your songs matt ...?
What's the cooling performance on this case if I may ask because the previous iterations have horrible ratings for cooling.
bro you are the most best pc builder i see from uk this request from me please do water cooled pc bro i like you building water cooled builds so please do it bro please 🥲😁😀

let us know about your build when it's done
Do it, but be warned, after you build it you would want to build another, lol. It's addicting to build one

That Airflow Visualisation fascinates me every time! never gets old. Mr Matt Lee is SERIOUSLY underrated on UA-cam I hope you get to 500k++ subs.
It's a q500l with different panels, same concept. Cooler master did it many times ago.
This is a geniously designed case in many levels. You build is as you go, making placing components and pluging in tiny connectors a dream. It has modularity built in with those holes.

If I wasn't into SFF cases I might consider this. One of the things I like is it remains compact while offering support for fairly beefy components.
The SFF has too many compromises for me to justify the smaller footprint. I am sure in some situations it is called for but for most, it is just a challenge
This is portable(relatively)and except at the highest level without compromise on the parts you can use.

I have no space concerns but sadly I do have budget considerations so can only make one every few years.
This is by far the most industrial looking cases I’ve seen up to now. In love!
another relaxing build with music beat 😊.
This helped a lot.. Thanks! What's that thing plugged into the USB port at 9:26?
It's a Cooler Master Oracle Air, an nvme ssd enclosure
nice video ..this pc build is so awesome...verry good..
Cool concept, but I personally don't like this case, lol
No one care man,just watch the video
You built this case so cleanlyyyy. Not to rag on other pc builders on youtube... but this is probably what cooler master was aiming for when sending this case out😂

Currently using the Q500L (mod) its the best cheap, compact and versatile ATX case IMO. This new Qube 500 is an upgrade for sure!

After Watching some Videos and noticed the Asus TUF line up on AMD...I wanted to Order up a RX 7800xt and they are All Sold out everywhere...
It is a great successor of Cooler Master MasterBox Q500L case, that solve it biggest issue - unable to setup long PSU with modern video cards longer than 360mm.
A newbie question. If the two lower fans introduce air, doesn't it create conflict with the GPU fan/s?
In a world gone mad with liquid, my man is holding it down for the air people...thank you from the air people.
Jojo joou 4060ti 16gb ,ry5 7500f,cooler Purerock 2led ,riptide ddr5 32gb and q300 😂Upgrade CPU to 8000serie
Smaller footprint, don't give a *.
Building my own case though, fun.
I’m literally sooo close to finishing my build, I literally need an GPU (RX 7800XT) then it’s complete.
I mean ... thank you for the video. but what a horrible case to buy lol. not so much user friendly, PSU covering the CPU fan flow and blocking air from front. i get it, its different. but its SO not for me lol

Blah blah hits different. So fucking sick of this saying. Stop being such a millennial. Next you'll tell me how low-key it is.

With that many meshes, I'm surprised it gets air at all haha. It's a cool case, but is it not important to have a through-and-through path for air with air cooled towers?
So basically a flat packed case with some cool cover panels? No cable management preview? Smooth looking video though.
is it space for Thermalright Frost Commander 140? cpu cooler
I'm 1:16 into the video and I'm already giving a thumbs up like for presentation. Nice. I just got this case myself last week and I am very impressed. It can work as both a conventional pc case or a work benchtop. Whoever designed this was a pure genius.

Qube 500 is compatibl with progekt zero? Or no cables matherbords?
I dort like these passiv CPU Cooler but the rest of these Build.And i miss gloves.Thx...
Sorry, in my country the average wage is 1000 dlrs a month. The GPU alone is more than I can pay
Nice feels like built around MB.. but where is HDD bay ?
I like your studio and also prefer non-RGB stealth builds, no frills, no glass...
Great case for a PC build, but I wouldn't say I like it because it takes a while to build a PC.
The only thing i dislike with that case is the placement of the power supply and that the exchaust is inside but other than that it is a great looking case
Does the TG side panel have a tint? If so, how dark is it? Hard to tell in picture/videos.
It's a very grown up, clean look. It's like, I'm a gamer but I'm still a mature sensible adult!
You pretty much nailed it with that. It’s exactly the style I was chasing 😁 Hope you’re enjoying your new rig too mr Jenks!
@@Mr_Matt_Lee yeah, it's so good, obliterates any game I try so far! and the curved screen is so immersive! Been playing the new company of heroes, and victoria 3 - starting wars in Europe as Belgium haha!
Coolermaster PSU's don't seem to get as much love as they used to. Great build!
Thermaltake toughair 710 black can be used? =^^^="
We don't say it enough, but the surface of your bench desk is incredible.
This sound at 04:49 oh...
Fantastic video editing skills... ! Congrats, Mr Matt Lee. Nice build tho!
I get scared when during some builds, you toss the screw driver with the motherboard on the desk!
Case price shipping to Brazil US$ 354,13!!!!
I miss the beige boxes that nerds poked around in. Hipsters ruin everything.
thanks for the airflow visual, that was my main concern since its pretty small for an atx case
Wait. Does the power supply vent into the casee? That can’t be right.
hits different? how? Looks like any other pc build.
Lets therapy begins.
Mr Matt Lee my non official therapist :D We are love you my friend. Thank you so much for video and by the way after this video i start digging the Qube 500 :D If i get bored soon from my Asus TUF Gaming GT502 i can go with this compact case. Thank you again.
i wish i had this:3
Why does everyone giggle the cpu in its socket. It freaks me out and its not needed.
Great video once again. And you showcased (pun intended) the build up of the case awesomely. Now I‘m thinking of getting one of those for the next build. 🤩
I am using a ZAKU II limited edition case with all the limited edition stuff inside and I love it.
Another fire build from Matt 🔥
Thanks so much 😁🫶
Wow, I like that case! Probably its the first time I wanted to change my Fractal 😄 Awesome work, Mr. Matt Lee!
Can I have this wallpaper Mr Lee? I think I'm in love...
One of the most satisfying and well-done build videos I have ever seen! Amazing work. I'm not sure I like the placement CM chose for the PSU, it's an aesthetically unimpressive component to put out on display like that.
Am totally with you on the PSU issue.
In the very beginging, what is the device/art next to his monitor?
Can we replace the 4070Ti for a 4090 in the same setup?
ask any ventilation engineer how to organize air exchange in a computer case
Where do you get that nice background wallpaper?
Hi. Is the top fan exhausting? Or is it intaking?
TIA
Wow amazing videos. Instant subscribe.
where did you get this wallpaper lik e damn thats so beatifull
