Boitier E-ATX Deepcool Quadstellar RGB avec panneaux vitrés (Noir)

This is a difficult item to review. The looks are subjective. I thought it was gorgeous, but when my wife saw it in my office the look on her face was best described as pity. If you've got a computer that can justify this sort of case, then I think it's a statement. It's certainly imposing. You need plenty of space for it, and it will frighten old people who will worry about it becoming sentient and enslaving us all.The build quality is the most varied I've ever seen on a case. The outer metal bits that you can see and touch - the quadrant covers, are fantastic. Really thick, pretty heavy and with a rough textured finish that feels superb and completely rejects fingerprints. They are even better than you'd expect for the price. The front plastic vent covers do attract fingerprints, but there's no need to touch them. The internal metalwork on the frame could maybe do with an extra mm, but that's bearing in mind the cost. It would be perfectly acceptable on a normal case. The case was let down by the quality of the jacks - no USB3.1 type C (although incredibly that's still not unusual despite motherboards exising with the connector for over a year now), but more problematic was the audio jack which failed after a couple of days. It's obviously a reused part from a cheaper case.The other problematic area was the GPU quadrant. For some reason, my 1080ti kept going into a low power state. It was very strange, it dodn't look anything like thermal or power throttling. Temperatures looked OK (65-70), the clocks remained up at 2GHz but it seemed to half in framerate and power consumption. GPUz never gave a PerfCap reason. I never got to the bottom of why, but I did suspect the riser cable. The other problem was the slots that the card backplate reaches into. For some reason they're about 5-7mm lower than they should be, which means that the backplate doesn't quite reach it and the GPU is therefore only supported by the PCIe slot and the backplate screw. Having said that, because the card is at 45 degrees to the vertical I didn't see any sag even with my heavy Strix 1080ti. That's a lot of load on a plastic socket, though.With the GPU bracket removed it's a pretty good case to build in if you've already built a PC. The trick is to have it on its back so that you can pass cables between each quadrant. There's a tonne of space and plenty of area to hide and tie off cables. It's harder to fiddle with once built. The covers slide off to the back so if it's against the wall you'll be pulling it forward a lot. The lower two quadrants require you to roll it over to remove them. You can get a lot done by removing the lovely glass panels. They're held on by magnets, but like many on line reviewers, I found that the magnets are slightly stronger than the glue. About 4 of the 16 magnets had come off on mine. They could fix this very easily with a small foam bumper within the steel cup that the magnet locates in. That would separate them and reduce the clamping force. It's not a major problem if they do come off. If you don't move them, they just remain on the glass rather than the case. Nothing wobbles. No more than two fell off on the same panel on mine, and they were on diagonal opposite corners.The front lighting looks great. Better in real life than the pictures. I had no problems with the app (the trick is to be on 2.4G WiFi, it doesn't work on 5G). The motors that drive the vents are noisy, but are definitely cool. It's a shame that the vents can't be programmed. You can manually open and close them (which you'll need to do to change the filters), but you can't manually set the temperatures or force it to keep them open or closed. When you power off the system, if they were open then they remain open. I can see why. The 12V power has gone, but it would have been a nice touch if they had a supercap to keep enough energy to close them on power failure. The case isn't particularly quiet. It's not sealed, despite the vents making it look like it is.Customer service at Deepcool is superb. I dealt with them a few times in trying to get hold of the case and they were excellent each time. I'd have confidence that they'd help in the future.In summary, it felt like I'd imagine owning a supercar is. An Aston Martin looks fantastic, but I've heard that the reliability is nowhere near that of a Jaguar. If you can live with the foibles, it is a great way to show off an ultimate build.

Looks beautiful but with some flaws...Not pairing with recent ios devicesPairing difficultRiser cable caused tons of issues to get work with my motherboard. Be aware that if your notherboard has pcie gen 4 you will have to change the config to gen 3 to work with the riser cable

Extremely nice case, however has many small scratches and nicks on corners/edges many = a few however a lot for the price. I'll add pictures when i re-open the box and build my system.Also deepcool sent it in the original box without packaging box and not a packaging box and hence the Display box/Advertisement box is damaged.Quadstellar

mi hardware get very hot

Arrived well packaged, and very quickly. Word of caution, this item is VERY HEAVY

Love this design. Can't wait to complete build.
