But TBH I also think it looks pretty cool. I don't know why you would get any color other than "construction yellow."The case is easy to build in, came with all the needed accessories, and everything fit together reasonably well. The build quality is pretty high, and there are quite a few "premium" touches. They certainly do like their logo, which appears in multiple places in the sheet metal and on the glass.I like that it has full-height slots and doesn't require a riser for the GPU, though of course in a case this size your GPU options are limited. I found a dual-fan 4060 Ti 16GB on clearance and it fit just fine.I don't think you'd be putting an AIO in here. It says it will take a 240, but 240s are getting pretty rare and aren't super efficient. In general, there's plenty of room for a decent air cooler, with the usual caveat that you don't want one with a fan on top if it'll be too close to the glass to get airflow.I used a MinisForum BD790i motherboard, which has extremely modest cooling requirements, and it was a nonissue.I recommend using an SFX-L power supply to balance noise and volume. Silverstone makes some nice ones and if you overspec it, the PSU fan simply won't ever run.If you want to fully load it up with fans, the lower front fan port is a 90mm. Fans of that size tend to run loud, so you have to be pretty to pick a good one. I used a Noctua Chromax NF-A9 and it's a perfect match.The bottom line is a tiny, adorable system that is whisper quiet when idle. The GPU ramps up a bit under heavy load, but GPUs have improved a lot in this area and what noise it does make is hardly the fault of the case.One small downside is that the PSU is necessarily completely contained, so you're not going to have access to the PSU power switch once it's closed up. That probably won't be a problem. Probably.All in all, it's a delightful little case with a lot going for it. Great for the young and the (I like to think) young at heart. Just get the yellow one. You know you want to. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Built like a tank 💪🏻 *by on Reviewed in the United States May 17, 2025* Like other reviews I read, I wasn't too sure about this case. I ended up going the air cooler route and got the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB along with 2 of the 3 pack matching rgb fans (Thermalright TL-C12C-S X3 CPU Fan 120mm ARGB Case Cooler Fan). If you plan on running a 40 or 50 series graphics card you will 100 percent need a compact psu, I recommend the corsair RM1000e due the the super tight spot where the gpu Fan and the psu cables face. The extra flexibility of the cables with this psu is really nice. Lastly, you will need slim, low profile ram sticks. I failed to notice that requirement and had to raise one of the fans on the air cooler, not a big deal though lol. Other that that I am overall pretty happy with how it turned out. The case is very well made, it's an aluminum frame with and aluminum shell built like a tank, and once everything is installed the yellow looks really nice. One last thing, theres is very little room for cable management. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lunchbox Case *by on Reviewed in the United States March 30, 2025* Great case. Large enough to have room to cable manage and give your hardware some breathing room, but small enough to be able to fit in a carry-on case. The handle can manage the PC fully kitted, and I never felt like it was going to snap on me.The provided instructions aren't the best, but if you've built PCs before, it's nothing too difficult. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mechanic Master Cool Cube Series C28 Matx/Itx Case/Alumium/Steel/Water-Cooling/Temered Glass Small Form Factor Computer Case (Moonlight Silver) - Samsung 990 PRO SSD NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen4, M.2 2280 Internal Solid State Hard Drive, Seq.
