DeepCool ATX Mid Tower Dukase V2

I absolutely loved this case. Another bad review cautioned my purchase of this case but I'm extremely happy with it. Taking my time to install was key. I didn't rush to just cram everything in there. The case overall is very sturdy and very light considering it's size. I feel after installing everything that this one is going to last for a really long time. All the edges that I touched were either rolled or very smooth cuts. I was concerned about finding a sharp edge like on my last case but this one I didn't feel a one and I thank you DeepCool for that!! Everything came off the frame pretty easily. I did have some struggles tightness but it wasn't anything more than expected, tightness leads me to believe that there is some precision machining going on here.Overall, how is this thing only $50.00...I don't understand. The enclosed bottom mount cases seem to be in the $75+ range for most. There are several things in the list below that I think put this in the $75 up to $150 range. I just can't get over the price point for this case.My previous case so that anyone reading this know where I'm coming from was a  Raidmax Tornado ATX Mid Tower Gaming Case ATX-238WU . After several upgrades and moving around of the Raidmax case it all but fell apart.Pro's:Hidden, enclosed, and bottom mounted Power supply with supply lines positioned on the backside of the case. This made for a really clean install. All the wires are easily hidden.Small opening near the top left of the motherboard to allow the 8-pin cpu connector for the mother board. They thought this out.Opening for wires where you need them to run your cables.Tie off's on the back to allow for even more cable management.Lot's of space near for the rear of the GPU(front of the case) so that making the power connections is simple and it should fit any GPU.A USB 2.0 feed on the USB 3.0 wire so those not using/having usb 3.0 connection can use still the port.Extra stand off's for the motherboard and plenty of extra screwsVented PCI inserts.Dark wires except for the USB 3.0 connection. I like that it's almost all blacked out.Extra fan mounts everywhere it seems. Deepcool didn't put in cheap noisy fans. They gave you one decent one in the back and the rest is up to you. I think they know most builders are going to swap out fans anyway. 2 in the front, Top for the water cooler, and maybe more that I missed.Price! I can't believe this was only $50.Con's due to deepcool.The 3.5 drive caddies were in pretty tight. Once they were out, they slide back in fine, but might have been caused by paint stickiness/drying.Short on 3.5 drive slots. I was running a raid system before. This case only allows for 2 - 3.5 drives and I have 4. I wish there was an optional part I could buy to expand this in the extra space allowed for GPU extended card area. I due realize the trend is heading to smaller SSD's and M.2/U.2 drives so this more a con on my part that I really need to update my rig.I agree that the should be some sort of screen for the where a water cooler radiator would mount. Not a deal breaker but worth mentioning. I'm thinking about water cooling anyways.I don't understand the fan control switch. Doesn't seem to really do anything. I didn't spend a lot of time with this so I may come back after further exploration.Con's due to someone..not sure who is to blameThe acrylic door on mine came have way pushed in. This was probably due to another box being set on this one during the shipping process but I can't be sure. It was very simple to put the acrylic back in but is worth mentioning. Could have been prevented with a piece of foam on front and back sides of the box so that it was protected. This also lead to a the door being "jammed" slightly. Still fully functional. The case was shipped with good solid foam on the front and back of the case and wrapped in protective plastic. Pretty well packaged for damage but very little side protection.Lastly, I haven't tried to remove the front panel yet as I don't have a need. So I can't comment on it.Overall, Thank you DeepCool, you built are really great case.

This is a fantastic budget case. Builders with more experience with high-end and even mid-range cases would look at this and probably not see anything special, but for a cheapskate like me that's only ever had bare-bones plain grey cases filled with jagged metal and absolutely no cable management, working in this was like a dream.I probably should have paid closer attention to the case dimensions though. This thing is damn huge, easily the largest case I've ever used, and much bigger than what I need at the moment. My mATX motherboard is practically swimming in it.**Update**: Unfortunately, I have to amend this review with a lower score to 3 because the fan control header switch causes multiple case fans to emit a low frequency buzz on both medium and low speed settings. It's kind of pointless to have fan control since I'm going to only be running them at high to avoid the buzz. I've tried fans from Cooler Master, Corsair and the fan that came with the case and they all do this. The only way I've found to avoid it is by using a single fan (doesn't matter what brand or where it's installed). That just isn't going to cut it for a case this big, especially if you're overclocking and using only air cooling. It's still an OK budget case overall in aesthetics, cable management and sturdiness/build quality, but you could spend an extra $10-20 and get something that completely outclasses this in every way.

First the positives. This thing looks great. The separate power supply bay, tons of through-holes, and lots of excess space behind the motherboard make cable management a breeze even for someone like me. I like that the SSD drive trays are front-and-center (though, now I wish I had matching SSDs) but the uglier HDDs are hidden away. Everything seems to be designed to keep keep excess junk out of the way of the critical components so they 1) look cook, and more importantly 2) STAY cool by not having all of that junk blocking airflow. This is 99% of what I look for in a case.Now the hangups. First, I had to cut about 1/2" inch of metal out of the power supply bay to squeeze in my Corsair RM750x power supply. It's a bit longer than the typical power supply, so that was totally understandable, but worth noting if you're using a similar power supply.Second, the SSD drive trays line up just wrong with the motherboard front panel connectors (power/reset switch, USB connections, all that fun stuff) so that the cables coming out of the back of the SSDs get smashed into all of those tiny cables that have pretty weak connections to begin with. This would have been fine if the case had been designed so that the motherboard sat even 5mm higher to allow more space to run the SSD power and SATA cables under the front panel connectors. As it is, though, I was a bit worried about bending those front panel connections.Another thing to consider, if your SATA power cables come out of the connector at a right angle, you may want to grab a splitter that has cables that come straight out of the back of the connector. I had to wait a few days for this one (http://a.co/7Kv1GoB) to arrive so I could actually get the drive trays attached to the case.Lastly, the airflow is not as good as it looks. While all of the cable management features should allow your fans to keep air flowing smoothly over your critical components, the case design does its best to keep any air from getting into the case at all. About 75% of the lower of the two front fans is directed through the HDD bays and into the power supply bay. None of that is getting to the CPU, GPU, or memory. The top front fan (and about 1/4 of the lower front fan) have a direct shot at the main motherboard area of the case...unfortunately, the front door of the case is a solid piece of plastic that will actually prevent your fans from pulling in much air at all. High static pressure fans would probably be OK, here, since they're designed to pull/push air through less than ideal conditions (there is, I think, at least enough of a gap to pull air from around the edges of the front panel), but that's not what I ended up with, so I may have to leave the front door open if I start pushing my system too hard.Overall, it's a great looking case and, if you know about the quirks going in, they shouldn't be too hard to work around.

yep just like the pic its gr8. I reply quick if u have any questions

Habe ein nagelneues Gehäuse in einem Amazon Warehouse Deal um 35€ bekommen und genau soviel ist dieses Gehäuse auch wert, nicht mehr.Die Bauqualität ist durchschnittlich, sehr dünne Seitenwände die verbogen werden können etc., ansonst ist es recht angenehm in diesem Gehäuse zu arbeiten.Bevor man dieses Gehäuse kauft sollte man sicher stellen, dass man ein "kompatibles" Motherboard hat. Die SATA Anschlüße meines ASRock Fatality befinden sich ganz unten am Board direkt über einer der Aussparungen der Netzteilabdeckung was das verbinden einer SSD recht schwierig macht.

A parte un problema di consegna da parte di TNT dovuto alle abbondanti nevicate dell' inizio di Marzo, un ottimo articolo, robusto e spazioso che può ospitare schede grafiche lunghe 390 mm. arriva ben imballato con una dotazione di accessori completa di viti e colonnine per la MB e viti apposite per installare le ventole frontali, è compreso un hub per pilotare 3 ventole con cursore di regolazione incorporato a tre velocità, ottima la progettazione generale, e in particolare la gestione dei cablaggi nascosti sul retro del piatto per la MB. HDD da 3.5 e PSU nascosti in uno scomparto nella parte bassa del case, predisposto per montare una led strip sul contenitore per la PSU, ottima anche la strategia di ventilazione con spazio per 5 ventole da 120mm. c'è uno spazio nel top predisposto per un radiatore da 240 mm. (max 280 mm.) la mia scelta per la mia build RyZen. Il rapporto qualità/prezzo è molto buono, sono molto pochi i case al di sotto degli 70€ con scomparto separato per PSU e dischi da 3.5, attenzione alla finestra laterale trasparente che si graffia facilmente. Giudizio generale tra il molto buono e l' ottimo. allego foto per apprezzare l'estetica e l' assembalaggio ordinato della build realizzata con Asus x370 Pro, RyZen 7 1700, Asus Geforce 1060 dual 6 Gb. , 16 Gb. di Ram Corsair DDR4 3000Mhz RGB, AIO a liquido Captain 240 RGB, Samsung Evo 850 250Gb. su slot M2, 2 HDD da 1 tera l'uno e un SSD Intel.

Mi é piaciuto la puntualità di amazon. Non mi sono piaciute diverse cose: prima di tutto la inesattezza delle dimensioni del case non corrispondono neanche lontanamente a quelle dichiarate. Avevo calcolato che tra la mobo e il dissipatore a liquido a due ventole se le misure dichiarate erano corrette ci stava tutto invece mi sono ritrovato a gestire tutto nello stretto. Intanto con il dissipatore inserito mi sono trovato con le viti dello stesso che impedivano il corretto inserimento del masterizzatore e ho dovuto inserirlo che fuoriusciva leggermente dal case, per fortuna non impedisce la chiusura dello sportellino davanti. L'attacco del fermo del lettore dvd/masterizzatore fa letteralmente pena due perni di plastica che una volta inseriti non li devi più toccare perché la prossima volta si romperanno. Quando mi è arrivato il case ho trovato nella scatola un pezzo di plastica che si era rotto da qualche parte, ho cercato di capire da dove poi ci ho rinunciato. Comunque morale della storia deluso del tutto. Il mio consiglio? Non fidatevi delle misure e rivolgetevi ad un altro fornitore o ad un case più capiente.

Inizialmente avevo aperto una segnalazione al produttore per via di un'ammaccatura sul lato inferiore del case, che impediva l'inserimento dell'alimentatore. In realtà si è rivelato un problema da niente (è bastata poca forza per raddirzzare la superficie) ed ho potuto continuare l'assemblaggio.Si vede immediatamente che il case è solido, spazioso, pensato per componenti belli grossi, ma allo stesso tempo conserva un aspetto piacevole, bilanciando funzionalità ed estetica. Carina la "porta" frontale e soprattutto la possibilità di inserire ventole aggiuntive lungo il pannello superiore, soprattutto in estate si rivelano decisamente utili.
