Computer Case Side Panel Window

[Bottom] Fractal Design makes great cases. If you don't need a side window and just want a great quality and quiet case at a fair price, this is a great option. Highly recommended. The sound dampening on the side panels works, and the included fans move plenty of air without much noise. Internal layout is easy to work with and cable management works well. Only issues: the panel on the front bottom is held on by magnets, and gets knocked off easily when moving the computer around. Honestly, drop the option for an optical drive and the cover, and make the case a bit smaller.

[ATX] I bought the Fractal POP Air solid side panels case because it seems to be one of the few cases with a non-glass side panel remaining. I’ve previously owned the Fractal R4 case and love the quality of Fractal puts into their cases they are really solidly built and always have a beautiful minimalist style to them with the POP Air being no exception. My Fractal POP Air came with a side that wouldn’t remove itself, but that was no issue as B&H had a very easy and fast exchange process and I was able to receive a replacement within 5 days. The replacement arrived without issue and big props to B&H for the great exchange service. On to the case itself the positive for me were the design, the space, and ample storage drive options available. With the POP Air I was able to easily fit a Xfx 319 Merc 7800 xt without issue and that gpu is huge. For the storage drives there are so many options to arrange multiple ssds & hdds depending on your needs. Cable management is mostly easy in the case. The area where I had issues was with trying to route some cables on the bottom of my motherboard through the side grommets where they couldn’t bend and fit correctly. Instead I had to route through the bottom grommets. The biggest cons for me are that the usb-c front panel is a separate adapter that has to be purchased. Fractal really just needs to include that by default in this day and age. The other knock I have against it is that the grommets for cable wiring I would prefer they were rubber lined it would make cable routing a bit easier. But that’s really it on faults I have so far. Overall tremendous value for such a functional and beautiful case from Fractal would definitely recommend to anybody and same goes for B&H buying and exchange experience both top notch.

[Yes] The Hyte Y70 touch nails it on all levels. From motherboard support up to EATX which I am currently using to 360 mm radiator support on the top and side of the case, Hyte has you covered. Installation in this case was great. The only challenges came into play when plugging in the front panel audio header on the motherboard due to the riser cable for the vertical GPU mount obstructing the view and fitting 3 Lian Li SL 120 fans in the bottom. I was able to do both. They just had to be finessed a bit due to the case design. Aside from these two areas, the case is perfection. Plenty of room for my RTX 4090, EATX ROG mobo, and ten fans. I loved the experience of building in this case. It is a showstopper. Sorry for the glare in the pictures. I was too lazy to pop off the side panel.

[Yes] This case is of solid construction and is very flexible in situating components. Plenty of room for all installations of video cards, power supply, all in one liquid coolers and mother board. The aesthetics of the front panel are excellent and the fact that all lighting for motherboard, fans, and front panel can be synched is great. A few nitpicking details: (1) If you want a CD/DVD drive it would have to be mounted inside the case with the side panel covering it, you will have to take the side cover off to use it, (2) the carrying strap is a bit awkward, solid metal handles would be better.

[ATX] While I can't claim to have experience with many computer cases, as this was for my first build, I will say that I am very satisfied. Feels and looks well-made; easy to handscrew the side panels and pop off the front one; all hardware, including some zip ties, packaged nicely. Enough room for cable management I found. I could see the cage for the optical drive(s) being in the way for many, but I had planned for one of these drives--and otherwise it should be detachable. Some, I know, don't care for the acrylic side panel--I thought it looked nice for what it is, granted that side is facing away from where I sit, so I don't see it constantly. Lastly, the case fans appear to be doing their job just fine and do make for a nice bit of light--and this from someone who had no intention of RGB at all! Overall, a nice case I am happy to have chosen after hours of research.

[USB-C Male] a bit of an overhang in side of computer but fine

[Dry Adhesion] So dark I thought my screen was off once when I viewed it from the side. Desk is in front of a window so it does have a glare, probably better without the sun blazing.

[Fixed Focal] This item I bought to shield side light entering the lens when shooting an interior photograph through a window while standing outdoors. Just hold the camera lens till the hood touches the window glass and be sure there is no light leakage. as evident in the viewfinder. Press the shutter release. This application only works for hand held exposures. It can serve as a wide angle lens hood, but the shading of the lens is limited due to the shallow extension of the hood.

[Leather] Nice quality holder for the Sennheiser Cube. Clear vinyl side window for easy reading of the LCD.

[72% NTSC] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this monitor for just under a month now. I have been very happy with it. It helps a lot with these widescreen monitors to have Windows 11 for easier window sizing of various software. You can click the window and drag it to the top and then pick which size you want the window to be. I have tried 2 windows side by side. This is typically my gaming set up. I have also tried quadrant windows, so 4 windows total and that's not too bad either. The flatness isn't that much of an issue to me. The fact that it was much cheaper than the curved monitors that are similar in size was the selling point for me. I know curved monitors are all the rage right now, but this one works fine for me for what I do. I am typically playing FFXI (I know I'm old :D) 2 Windows side by side, and then of course normal web surfing etc. I also use SolidWorks with this computer and monitor and that has worked really well with the widescreen. The resolution on this one is 3440 x 1440. It's nice because not everything is ready for 4k and this is a slight upgrade from my 2k monitors that I had before. I would definitely recommend this monitor.
