NCORE 100 MAX

Purchased mostly due to the aesthetics the aluminium like chassis is very elegant especially with RGB ram inserts. I don't think this is the type of form factor to run a heavy duty build given the 120mm AIO, it will certainly struggle on stock internals to run more intensive CPU's. Currently running with a Ryzen 7700x and it's performing well while remaining cool on temps. Those mentioning the loud components (PSU / fans) are accurate, personally I'm accustomed to a louder system coming from an NZXT with multiple fans but pairing the NCORE with the Asus B650ei has worked well when adjusting the fan curves and settings to silent via the integrated application that comes with the motherboard. Now it's dead silent without needing to change fans to noctua etc. Very good and occasionally good value if you purchase on discount. I did require a replacement model as the first had a defect in power supply and wouldn't turn on, but Amazon's customer service was outstanding as always.

I built my PC in this case using a Ryzen 9 7900X and 96GB of RAM, and overall, it’s a well-thought-out and stylish case that’s enjoyable to work with. The design is sleek and minimal, making it look premium on any desk setup. The build quality feels solid, and everything fits together nicely without any alignment issues. One of the standout features is how easy it is to open and remove panels. The side glass and top panels come off effortlessly, making upgrades or maintenance a breeze. It’s refreshing to see a case that doesn’t require fiddling with multiple screws every time you want to adjust something inside. Another huge plus is the built-in power supply, which is not only compact but also performs very well. It keeps cable clutter to a minimum, and the pre-routed wiring helps a lot during installation. This makes it ideal for those who want a cleaner, more organized build without the hassle of managing too many cables. However, when it comes to cooling, this case can struggle with high-end components. My Ryzen 9 7900X ran quite hot until I installed an external fan to boost airflow. After that, temperatures were fine and stable, but I’d definitely recommend adding extra cooling if you plan on using powerful CPUs or doing heavy gaming or rendering. Pros: • Sleek, premium design that looks great on any setup • Easy to remove panels for quick access and maintenance • Built-in power supply is reliable and space-efficient • Excellent cable management layout • Solid construction and quality materials • Straightforward and beginner-friendly build process Cons: • Stock airflow isn’t strong enough for high-end CPUs • Requires additional fans for optimal cooling • Slightly limited space for larger AIOs or GPU cooling setups Overall: This is a great case for mid to high-range builds, especially if you appreciate good design, easy assembly, and a built-in power supply. Just make sure to plan for extra cooling if you’re using power-hungry components. Once that’s in place, it performs reliably and looks fantastic.

Awesome case, cables easy to use, and good price tbh I got in deal, very happy with this case,

The case feet aren't level so it rocks from side-to-side. The top grate (the small one in my case, pun not intended) buzzes sometimes and I have to push it down to stop it and the cooler makes the CPU run pretty hot, up to 95°C on a Ryzen 7 9700X though it usually sits around 80°C in games and idles around 50°C. Actually building in it felt like a normal size case weirdly, though because the power supply comes pre installed along with the custom cables, that's a whole other monster I thankfully didn't have to tackle. Getting the side panel on with the rigid AIO tubes can be a challenge but everything else wasn't even a struggle. Overall I love how much space on the desk this frees up even compared to a laptop and it's exactly my aesthetic so I'm happy with it.
