The top has removable dust filter, so if I put fans there, I would let it blow in. The back panel has air vent but no dust filter.

Here lies another problem. The visible panels (glass/ acrylic?) will have dust particles stuck on it. At least regular case only 1 visible panel to be cleaned. But here there are 2.

Also the top fans should blow out the top. Heat rises up. From they idea to only draw cold air from below and vent it out top side and rear is logical. But the intake is far smaller than originally intended. This case is more like restriction than "Air". laugh.gif

Even the average Invasion H2 does not pretend to be a better case than what it is. 3 fan in front, 2 fan at the back and no rads or fans on top. You can feel air is being pushed out of the top because too much internal pressure from just the 3 front fans. And the rear fan is choking up to pull out the massive air volume.

Now the case you shown has reverse problem.

Does it bend without the side panel insrall?

No, it's something equivalent to tecware forge.

I think this casing is for those that want the 2 pieces of tempered glass but at a cheaper price compares to 011 vision.

Top is not necessarily to be outlet only. The cold and hot air ratio is not significant enough for hot air to naturally rise up. And the fan air column would be too strong for that to happen. This is not some air tight wind tunnel structure after all. Dust is a more important problem to tacket. This, I always try to maintain positive air flow. For this case, it only has 3 fans, so I'll put 1 rear outlet, 2 at the side with the top filter moved the the back panel.

That is a very good casing, if I'm buying a new pc, that might be my choice as well. Just that the fan arrangement is not positive air flow oriented.

I don't like that casing because it has lots of space to store dust.

im chill, its more of a want than a need for me.
i would probably use non rgb artic fans anyway.
time to time browse around the net for 5.25 bay mods and adapter for lulz
n i still keep around a crt monitor from the early years just for nostalgia sake.

no i have no recollection. i seem to remember all pc parts were plastics and jank during those time. and cgi box art.
then again all pc were prebuild for me, windows me era. plus im on an island.
my uncle was a hardcore broodwar player. so my interest was mostly in games over pc parts that time.
only until mid geforce gtx, i started to begin the pc building side hobby.
the only indicators i remember in my old pcs are
those mini beepers on the motherboard for temps and fail boot
5.25 bays with display to show ur rpm and temps (on one of my seniors system)
like those old car pioneer media player
visualizer mode on windows media player or winamp.
nowadays you can add waifu on your cpu cooler.
those were simpler times. connect jaring, some one on phone marah.

Ahh i see the fan i mentioned i think during year 2k is similar concept hologram clock you can find on Shopee right now but the fan i mentioned is a functional fan can blow air and temperature purpose monitoring too see internal and external temp without need 5.25bay device which too much wiring also annoying πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I only begin pc things p4/win 98 era only starting playing game, early than that my life still miserable and poor πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

That time not much game i can choose lah WC 3 and SC 1 rts game always failed to vs computer even easy mode i also kena wipe by NPC πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Then mostly only play jing yong and ro just 24/7 and bot then selling account after specific goal πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
