? Flagship would have bespoke and separate cooling
Do not like this case at all.
To me it looks incredibly cheap. The hollowed out sheet metal for feet, what looks like a Air540 copy on the side where the tacky "TUF GAMING" text is written...
Clearly poses complications on an E-ATX even though it would support it.
Looking from the front and seeing the side of the 120mm fans on the right feels like an oversight on design.
Minimal placement for the GPU support bracket when running triple fans in lower case. I assume thats why you are only running 2 fans. Ideally this case should have some functionality to support Vertical GPUs. Maybe a strengthened brace coming from behind the GPU for a little stealth.
The panels covering the vertical space for the additional internal fans looks cheaply bolted on. Would have been good to see these flush with everything so it looks smooth and sleak. Instead it looks like layer of metal over layer of metal over... layer of metal.
Back side space is really good. Seems like that even do better than the Lian Li O11.
GPU cooler looks absolutely fantastic up to the end, where for some odd reason they add the most weak RGB lighting Ive seen since Gen 1 of A-RGB. That red has no vibrance whatsoever. Blue seems punchy though. The cooler itself, looks better than almost all others on the market (i know its subjective but it looks more "mature" than most)
I would definately have this GPU in White/Black on my radar for future purchases.
Lastly...

That awful chunk of a block for the CPU. That is way too bulky for an LCD/OLED screen. The cheaper rounder version is far better in my opinion. It looks like they slapped a block on the cpu, then another block ontop of that for the display. The way it sticks out like a sore thumb in its surroundings, make it seem it does not belong in this design.
This would have looked much better to me.
