It does look amazing, but it's not for me. Too much glass. I yearn for the days when side panel fans were a given. I wish someone would make a modern case with a side panel fan. It's the single best way to add significantly more cooling to your GPU. I still remember my NZXT Tempest that I had back in 2009. The side panel fan reduced the GPU temps by 10°C.

These days, the best gaming cases have fans at the bottom that push air directly at your GPU fans. That's what this case does. Depending on the airflow design of a case, side panel fans can do more harm than good. Now that plastic side panels are gone, I don't see them coming back.

I know. Look at my signature. The NZXT H5 Flow 2024 has those bottom mounted fans. But it's not the same. Side panel fan blows air directly to the PCB. It really helps with vram temps.

It still has a glass sidepanel (a smallish one) but the Havn BF360 I just moved to definitely prioritises air performance over a huge glass sidepanel
