Review: Great 2U Full Atx Rack Case - Needed something not to large for my unRaid build with a full ATX board and takes a Full ATX PSU. This hit every box. you CAN run a full 2 slot PCIe card with a small riser cable (for gpu if needed, im running a 5700g) All other slots align for SFF/half height cards on the ATX board. Some Pros: Dual 5.25" bays which easily fit 3.5" HDD Easy swap bays, Internal HDD and SSD storage trays are available, just watch out for some of the metal has sharp edges Decent overall case for the price. good airflow with supplied fans. will definitely buy another for my proxmox mATX server.
Review: Versatile and roomy for 2U, but fills up fast - Critical measurements and tips in review - Quick and dirty, this case is quite flexible for 2U dimensions, and offers decent airflow for most builds. As advertised, ATX boards fit, but require compromise. However, no instructions are included, so some builds will require a fair bit of test-fitting, disassembly and reassembly. I'll also fill in the blanks on information that quite frankly should be in the listing. Expansion: Measures 10.25 in (260.35mm) from expansion slot bracket to fan wall. Horizontal full-height card mounting has three slots, a single GPU up to 50mm W and 265-275mm L. While my 275mm KO-RTX3060ti might possibly fit, GPUs over 250-260mm L will require temporarily removing and possibly modifying the mid-barrier / fan wall for positioning. Cooling may also be an issue with these larger cards. Three drive cages are included, but horizontal-mounted full-height cards with ATX boards mean sacrificing the rear one, and USB header access limitations. Cooling: The included 80mm fans work quite well and can be controlled with motherboard connectors if available. A 67mm cooler barely clears the lid, with little room to draw air, so those taller than 50-60mm may require lid modification for sufficient air intake. While this case is meant for rack-mount servers, my build shows it can be an excellent HTPC. However, after removing the handles, I found that the bezel screws will pull through the bezel if overtightened without them. I also found the HDD LED to be a distraction, as mine sits quite close to the foot of my bed. Disconnecting it from the header was no fun, as my 100-lb 75” display and stand sit on top. I had to get quite creative in shifting things around to deal with this myself. Something to consider if you’ll be in close proximity. I stuffed this case with a Gigabyte B550 Aorus Master, Ryzen 3600X, ID-Cooling IS-55, Asus Tuf Gaming GTX1650S-4-OC, ElGato 4K60-PLUS MK2. Storage: 500GB SN570 M.2, 3.5" WD Black HDDs (4 / 8TB), a 2.5" Crucial SSD, and a Pioneer BDR212-DBK. Were pertinent measurements available up-front, this build could have gone together in a couple days. It's taken me about 14 days, 10-12 of which awaiting adapters that ultimately did not solve my problem, outlined further below to help others save time. Pros: Versatile and roomy for the dimensions, but fills up fast. The included fan controller is unnecessary if you have sufficient 3-pin case fan headers. Cons: No real instructions. Space constraints limit cable management. Double-sided fan grilles would be nice. Horizontal card mount requires a specific unique piece easily overlooked or misplaced. Builds with ATX boards and/or horizontal-mounted cards will take substantial test-fitting, assembly, disassembly and reassembly. I did this about 2 dozen times due to clearance issues, but I stuffed quite a bit into this thing, adapting to clearance issues as I went. Pro tip -- Front drive cage is critical to some cable management. Front panel wiring underneath, power extension cable through the cage makes these easier to deal with. Drive cage mounting is trickier though. Mount physically smaller drives lower in the front cage to leave room for the cable. Bottom line, full-height cards with an ATX board means losing the rear drive cage, and forget about using vertical USB 2.0 headers. Horizontal mount will clear headers only, nothing else. My results: This case suits my HTPC / NAS / media / web use quite well. But as the GPU is suited for gaming, and some may be curious, I did test gaming thermals with BeamNG.drive at 1440p, and American Truck Simulator at 4K. Yes, this case can cool casual gaming setups if you’re realistic and have some know-how. Before tweaking, the 3600X peaked at 68C – 8C more than with optimum cooling. The GTX1650S peaked at 75C – still acceptable for this configuration. Both idled around 40C-50C. An aggressive case fan curve (60-100% between 30C-60C), using the PCIex16 temperatures, dipped temps into the 50C-65C range, occasionally high 40s. Screen shots attached. This fan curve achieved 38-40C idle temps, 5C more under normal loads. However, some may find the case fans noisy about 65%. Allowing for this, I still easily maintained temps in the 70s in 60 fps 1440p. Not bad at all for a 2U case. I’ll let others be the judge as to what to expect from an RTX card, based on the level of noise they find objectionable. Also, keep in mind, quieter, more efficient fans are likely available. Also, the lack of exhaust fans may leave room for improvement. Obviously, 2U builds don't allow much wiggle room. Anyone considering this case will likely need the following... I did. 90-degree SATA adapters 90-degree USB header adapters (ATX boards may not clear horizontal-mount cards even with adapters) USB 3.0 header extension 90-degree riser cards or extender cables PCI-e 6+2 power extension GPU anti-sag support (I used a 1.46-1.97 inch adjustable sold by Jeymei) To connect my RGB controller and retain my front USB ports (running at 2.0), I used these.. USB 3.0 20-pin male to dual USB 2.0 9-pin male port replicator (I got one from Chenyang) USB 2.0 9-pin female to USB 3.0 20-pin male adapter One 'meh' about this case is that the sides and lid are bare metal. A plastic sheet is included to protect the motherboard (you may need to add standoffs, which are included), but for the price, I would have liked the sides and lid to continue the front bezel's textured surface treatment, especially in my HTPC use case. Krylon Fusion's textured black seems is a very close match, so not a deal-breaker. Overall, it's fairly well designed, but to me, the lack of instructions are grounds for docking one star.

### ⭐ Seller shipped a used and broken Chassis
*by D***L on January 23, 2024*

The chassis looks well made and the perfect size and configuration for what I need but the seller (CICHENG INC) shipped me a used unit with a broken handle. The Chassis was all scratches and was clearly used at some point and handled roughly. Thankfully Amazon took it back. Disappointed - need to find a better source.
