MAINGEAR Vybe RGB Tempered Glass ATX Mid-Tower Gaming Computer Case - Liquid Cooling Ready - White

This was my first PC build, but this case was my third. I started with the Phanteks Evolv X, but it was too big. Then I switched to the NZXT H510i, but the top USB port broke in less than a week and it just felt a little cheap overall. I was interested in this VYBE case, but I couldn't find much information about it so I waited a while--but man am I glad I finally pulled the trigger. I LOVE this case. It checks all of the boxes for what I wanted: compact mid-ATX size, solid build, USB-C on front or side I/O (not on the top), plenty of options for cooling, and NO thumbscrews on the glass. This case met every want I listed. It also include 3 case fans (DC, not PWM unfortunately) and a PWM fan/rgb hub.I do have two issues with the case however. First, Amazon's shipping was atrocious. The case box was in a larger box nearly twice it's size, with one sheet of packing paper that did not protect it at all. The box arrived banged up and torn. When I opened the case box, there was a small scratch on the top left of the tempered glass. This could definitely be because of the packing. The other issue I have is that one connection on the fan hub has malfunctioned. Whatever fan is connected to it, it runs at full speed. Luckily, there are about 7 fan connections on the hub, so I was easily able to switch to another spot. Who knows, this could *possibly* be because of the tough shipping.Overall, I give this case 5 stars because it blows me away with everything I wanted. Yeah, I have the two issues, but I'm not counting those against my review score because they're not the fault of the case or manufacturer (and will hopefully be resolved with replacement parts through Micro Center). I am a HUGE fan of NZXT's H500 series of cases. The compact size and minimalist design is just great. But the H510i fell short in so many ways apart from its looks, mostly in quality. The Maingear VYBE case has the size and minimalist looks of the NZXT, but with more cooling options, a sturdier build, and better I/O. I highly recommend it.

I bought this case in red to build a new Z490 gaming Linux system, and it's beautiful. The build quality is flawless, and the design is the best I've ever seen the price range. It even has little metal 'hooks' for zip ties in just the right places to tie down cables. The included controller for PWM fans (up to 5) and RGB light strips (up to 3) with remote, is well designed and located. The lighted logo on the front is cool, and the tinted tempered glass side is perfect. My only small complaints - it comes with 3 boring 3-pin non-PWM case fans, which I replaced with red LED PWM ones, and it doesn't have any front openings for DVD drives, so you occasionally have to use an external drive if you need to use a CD or DVD. Other than those minor points, this is the BEST for high-end workstation or gaming systems! (The photo doesn't do the colors justice.)

Great case its absolutely what i wanted its not getting 5 stars because of the absolute crap instructions they give you doesn't even tell you how to remove the front panel and i need to to put my fans in and take the crap stock ones out but nope of course not no instructions on how to remove the front panel if i knew how to id give it 5 star but i still dont know how too and im not gonna do it and end up breaking something. DO BETTER its one more sheet of paper big deal explain it F***

This case is cheaply made. VERY cheaply made. For starters, the tempered glass panel is held together by very weak 2-way tape. My panel broke within 2 weeks of owning it. Only took it off 3 times since I put the PC together. Secondly, I know most people replace case fans, but this thing has TERRIBLE stock case fans. Super noisy and one of them broke already for no apparent reason - I just turned on my PC one day to hear an extremely loud noise coming from the case, and it was one of the front fans.Furthermore, it comes with no drive bays! I have an SSD just sitting in my case just rattling around because this case doesn't come with a bay to screw it into!The last thing I'll mention is that the RGB in this case is very underwhelming. They definitely marketed it to be much better than it actually is. The power button constantly stays red with no option to change it, and the Maingear logo on the front changes colors, but that's it.This case is a joke. Do not waste your money.UPDATE 12/31/2020:Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, this case continues to surprise me in how bad it is!One of the big selling points is that the case is “liquid cooling ready with radiators up to 360mm”. Well, just bought a 360mm cooler- come to find out it doesn’t even fit! Not even close! It looks like there’s room for 3 fans and a radiator up top, but I can assure you, there isn’t! I had to take out a case fan just to fit the radiator, and then once I (barely) got it to fit lengthwise, I realized the bottom of it is touching my RAM! It’s almost like no planning went into manufacturing this case at all. I’m beyond infuriated with this computer case. DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT

The case is very nice. Fans are DC only - not PWM. Fan and LED hub works well and welcome addition. Glass is heavy and needs care not to break, but looks beautiful.Took 10 days from order to delivery. 7 of those days, daily report of "out for delivery" followed by "delayed by 1 business day" around 8pm. Amazon cancellation date moved everyday preventing from going to the store and purchasing it myself.

Well worth every penny. The cable management within the case is perfect and easy to use. The build quality is top notch. This case looks great and really clean post build.

I’ve owned a few cases previously & this is by far my favorite. Cord management slots are excellent, air vents are very nice. Overall it’s the best case you can get in this price range.

Built for my wife and the build quality was much better than expected. Better than the other case i bought for myself which was more expensive.
