The recessed fans underneath the graphics card, front mounted PSU, and anti sag bracket are stand outs for me. Any thoughts?

Does this support BTF?

The cutout does not look as though it will support BTF. I didn't hear any mention of it being compatible in the Computex coverage.

The fans underneath is a nice touch. The small matx cases with the PSU in front of the mono have this so it's not that novel. It looks a bit generic but then again don't do argb. I suppose they can not do a matx one with two 140mm fans.

Dust filter is an optional accessory and fits behind the front fans. I like dust filters.

The lack of dust filters on the front is what is making me consider the G400A as well. I wonder if the fans underneath will draw dust through the perforated rear case, which does not even have a fine mesh (like the sides). The G400A does not have an anti sag feature though like this.

The bottom perforated rear was highlighted by GN as an oversight and dust issue, as I thought it would be in my earlier post.

Can you turn off fan lighting and slow fans down to reduce noise? Perhaps there's some mandatory software which should be reviewed?

One reviewer on YT said he could only lower the fans to 1000rpm and they were still quite audible. Could just be a motherboard biased limitation, perhaps.

Which PSU are people intending on using/purchasing for a build in this case? The length of the CPU pin cables were an issue for one reviewer.

Just built a pc in one of these, great little case, NZXT C1200 fits perfectly, as does a rather large Thermalright Phantom Stealth cooler and XFX 7900xt, including the support bar.

One thing to note, I fitted a MSI MAG B650 Tomahawk mobo, the lowest rear cable management strap/bar had to come out in order for the Front USB port to connect properly, they are directly in line. Didn't affect wiring too much thankfully, but something to consider if you choose this combo.

Let us know how you get on with dust ingress. Some reviewers have stated that they intend to create a mesh dust filter to position at the rear of the perforated case below the level of the shroud case fans.
