Best Cases with Viewing Window

The Fractal Design North case represents the perfect combination of functionality and aesthetics, aimed at gamers and content creators looking for a modern case with a non-trivial design. The key feature of the case is a wooden front panel grille, which adds a unique touch and at the same time helps improve ventilation.

In terms of equipment, the case resembles recent models from the Pop and Meshify series: the platform is designed for ATX-format motherboards, the maximum graphics card length is 355 mm, and the CPU cooler height should not exceed 170 mm. Support is provided for liquid cooling systems of three main sizes (120, 240, and 360 mm). Additionally, a pair of proprietary Aspect 14 fans are already pre-installed. Overall, the capacity is solid, and assembling may only be complicated by using extremely powerful and exceptionally large components. For example, after installing the front liquid cooling system, it may become difficult to install a long graphics card, and the heat exchanger may conflict with tall RAM modules.

Overall, this is an excellent Midi Tower case with an unconventional style and striking wooden finish (note: walnut or oak), which goes against trends and literally sets Fractal Design products apart into a separate category of image cases. We are confident it will appeal to people who are not thrilled by flashy gaming cases with an abundance of glass and lighting. It's no wonder it made it to many of the top most beautiful components of 2022.

The Deepcool CK560 case offers the user expanded capabilities for building a powerful workhorse based on E-ATX motherboards without major restrictions on component dimensions. The reliable steel frame is equipped with a mesh front panel made of metal with a magnetic quick-release fastener and is complemented by a tempered glass viewing window that adds style. The cooling system can be based on full-size 360 mm radiators, and three 120-mm fans for injecting cold air inside and one 140-mm fan for expelling hot air are already included.

The three front fans are equipped with ARGB lighting, which can be controlled using a button on the control panel. There is also a high-speed USB-C connector that allows connecting mobile gadgets, cameras, action cameras, and other equipment for charging and data transfer. Magnetic dust filters are used on three sides, easily removable and cleanable without tools. Another convenient technical solution is the removable 3.5” hard drive cage, which facilitates the installation of HDDs and can free up space for a larger power supply unit.

The Asus TUF Gaming GT301 case immediately attracts attention with its advanced design, emphasizing its affiliation with the gaming series. The front panel is made of high-quality materials, featuring a unique construction and good aerodynamic properties, providing excellent ventilation. The viewing window occupies the entire side panel, allowing you to view the internal aesthetics of the system unit. The case belongs to the midi tower format, but its compactness significantly limits the user when building a gaming machine. The video adapter length can only be 320 mm, and the cooler height is 160 mm. Top-mounted liquid cooling is not possible, although the front supports radiators up to 360 mm.

The manufacturer has equipped the Asus TUF Gaming GT301 with three ARGB fans conveniently placed at the front, providing a powerful airflow and turning the case into a stylish installation that can impress friends. A regular exhaust fan is mounted at the back. The built-in hub controller and a button on the instrument panel allow you to change lighting modes without needing a connection to the motherboard. The case includes the installation of four SSDs, ensuring enough memory for building a home media server or file sharing. The package includes a brand hook for hanging a headset directly on the case. Other advantages include a removable 3.5” hard disk cage and reliable dust protection with three filters (top, bottom, front).

The Corsair 4000D Airflow computer case is designed for assembling professional gaming stations with hot processors and advanced liquid cooling systems based on 360 mm radiators. Two standard 120 mm AirGuide fans with optimized blade shape provide enhanced air mass capture for efficient cooling without increasing noise. This is aided by the AirFlow front panel with a well-thought-out channel layout. The case is securely protected by magnetic dust filters at possible air intake locations (top, front, bottom).

Corsair 4000D Airflow features a restrained external design and advanced functionality that allows you to create an individual style and showcase it to everyone via a large viewing window made of tempered glass. Cable management is carried out using the RapidRoute system, ensuring secure fixation and hidden installation of connectors without using ties and other external fasteners. On the top panel, the user has access to standard connectors for a flash drive, headphones/microphone, and a USB-C interface, significantly expanding the range of connectable equipment. The chassis design allows vertical GPU installation, eliminating high load on the motherboard’s PCI slot.

The massive be quiet! Pure Base 500DX midi tower standard case can accommodate advanced components for developing a premium-level PC. A distinctive feature of the case is its good sound insulation and ventilation, thanks to the use of three proprietary 140 mm Pure Wings 2 fans. They provide powerful airflow at optimal RPMs without causing vibration, and noise at maximum does not exceed 17 dB. Moreover, the case is compatible with all cooling systems, allowing installation on three sides. A whole seven slots for drives (2 x 3.5” and 5 x 2.5”) guarantee a substantial amount of physical memory for games, movies, applications, and personal storage.

Modern connectors, including USB-C, and computer, lighting control elements are located at the top front panel. The lighting is presented by ARGB modules on the front panel and inside the upper part along the window for visualizing components. Several color options and lighting modes are available to the user. Filters on three sides prevent dust from entering, maintaining equipment efficiency.
