Raijintek Silenos Pro A-RGB

Bought, carried home, unpacked and packed again... A disappointment in all areas unfortunately... The material is cheap, the filter on top is badly cut and had a scratch, no rubber for the PSU cables, the space in the back is practically zero for the cables like for example from Cablemod as I have... The case itself is also extremely small for being a middletower.
I am used to seeing high quality cases from Raijintek... On the photos the case looks great... But it is a matter of taste.

Don't buy this rubbish. The drill extinguishers have the wrong dimensions. The housing itself comes with dimensional errors. The cheapest plastic is used.
Feet fall off because the drill holes do not fit the screws.
This product is a disaster. The person responsible should be sued for fraud

The case has a lot of additions for the price. But it also feels cheap accordingly. The buttons and much around them are plastic. The cables are difficult to manage because there are no cable routes. The 200mm fans are half-covered at the front on the sides, which means that a large part of the air encounters resistance. There is no finger space between the front fans and the glass, so removing the fans is difficult and they don't get much air.

The design of the enclosure is very good. The large front fans are something for the eye and look good. The built-in RGB controller does its job.
Unfortunately, the all-round glass (3-sided) creates a lot of heat inside the case, so the fans usually run at maximum speed (3D applications). The fans on the front in particular are prevented from working effectively by the glass cladding. A mesh grille would have been much better here. 2 more fans in the upper area of the case would counteract this shortcoming.
I also absolutely do not understand the installation of a 3rd glass panel on the normally invisible side of the case. Neither RGB nor other "visual" components are visible from there. Unnecessary and therefore somewhat heavier.
Installed was:
- MSI Z390-A Pro
- Intel Core i7 9700
- MSI RTX 2060S Ventus OC
- Corsair Vengeance RGB 16GB
