Asus should sponsor you bro. You did a better job reviewing this case than 90% of the videos in TH-cam about this case. Great job #ThisIsHowItsDone #ThumbsUp
Fabulous video. Been looking at this case but was put off by a few other reviews because they complained about not being able to fit a 360mm rad in the side mount. The extra detail you have gone to here, actually specifying the exact dimensions of the side mount radiator support, means I now know my current AIO will in fact fit.
Been looking at case reviews for days. I have been watching case reviews for days. Your thoroughness is unsurpassed. Everything is answered for the GT502 right here. Thank you!
I love how it has handles. I wish the Lian Li 011 Dynamic Evo had handles as much as I'm messing with it and stuff. LOL I love how you blurred your face in the reflection. At first I was like "wtf is going on"?
hello Elliott, welcome back, yup I wish that too. Its so much easier to handle the case. lol.. ya what's important is the content and not my face, sorry about that
Does rtx 4080 fit in o11 dynamic evo without having issues by power cables when you close the side glass panel ? I have galax rtx4080 and im looking for a case which i can moınt horizontally with no issues
Thank you for this in-depth review for this case I have been looking for one since I just ordered this case thank you so much new sub here!! Great job sir!
Hi Иван Стоев, welcome to my channel and thank you for your kind words. Greatly appreciated it and all the best with your build too 😉 I am happy that I get to review stuff for Asus as they are willing to loan me pc components. That’s more than anything else but thank you for your compliment 👍
The video impresses with its well-presented content on a meticulously crafted chassis. Despite initial reservations about vertical GPU mounting, the thoughtful review has convinced the viewer. Appreciation is expressed for detailed reviews, especially considering the current high cost of PC cases.
Hi , Sandy Valdez, welcome to my channel. Thank you for your kind words and valuable feedback. Greatly appreciated it. All the best with your build too if you are considering to get this case. 😊
Exactly the reason I found this video, I have seen a few build videos but it's mostly montages or just general information. I'm glad I found this video, it's detailed and interesting. Great narration and my question was answered.
@@Dreadpirate-or2qe hi, welcome to my channel, I am glad this content did aid you and thank you for your valuable feedback. Maybe some tricks for you for thanks giving 😊th-cam.com/video/xZ2R4roF1_Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=cORqIx64RmYH3_c5 it's not able the thermal paste but the method on applying. Some of my viewers have reported with good thermal results and It works for Intel too. You might want to give it a try.
Thank you for your video. Yours was the only one to actually go through in detail the various features of the case, including the fact that oversized GPUs such as RTX 4xxx series are only possible to be mounted vertically and the case doesn't have enough clearance anyway for the 12VHPWR power connector if mounted horizontally. A good case but several glaring omissions by ASUS. Also on the white version of this case, the front panel connectors are all on one F_PANEL block - which is not mentioned in the manual at all.
@@KleoYan Yan what was the length of the riser cable that you used here - was it 10 or 15cm? I was thinking of the next gen RTX 4xxx due to how wide they are - I need to find out exactly the right cable length otherwise there is nowhere for excess cable lengths to go to.
FYI I just picked up the new Lian Li Edge power supply and it's a perfect fit in this case. The cables are nearly custom length made for the gt502. Highly recommend
Great review,as always kleo amazing at explaining, NOTE: If you're going with this case notice that deepcool AK620 digital, the screen will slightly touch the Glass ( its closes ) , so its barley fit . Also there is another version called Plus that comes with fan hub
I LIKE THIS CASE.. but I don't like the tuf crest and too much embross wordings. maybe I will consider this case for my son hahaha. Good content again as aways. If I ever need case review, I will fist to see if you do have the case I wanted. No reviewers out there will bother to talk in-depth which is a shame. Keep it up with the good work Kleo. 🥰😘😍
Whats the best fan intake/exhaust balance configuration for this case tho? lol It's possible to have up to 13 fans in this so I'm kinda speculating... bottom (3), side (3) and back (3) for intake, rear (1) and top (3) for exhaust? lol That would be too much positive pressure, I'm usually always for atleast 50%/50% or 60%/40% fan balance but this case can be like 80%/20% intake/exhaust balance if you know what I mean... lol I also wish the side panel atleast was like a door, I really like such designs. It'll be kinda tricky to have a full custom water cooled (gpu and cpu) system in that case without sacrificing a fan slot or two, which ruins the aesthetic imo. I give this case a 9/10. 👍
Hi fluzzles, welcome to my channel. positioning of fans is up to individual to test it. for me best configuration will be top with AIO exhaust, side intake, bottom intake, rear exhuast. In addition, I will only mount GPU vertically. It's not for looks but for thermal. as for the other side of the case. adding three more intake fans does shows improvement on motherboard and cpu temp but it add noise and it will only drop by 1 to 2 degrees by using three more additional fans which to me not very practical.
Hi ya Bruce Lee, welcome to my channel and Merry Christmas, thank you for your feedback and suggestion about the Haf 700. I see what I can do but no promises.
Great Video! Very well presented and spoken. You can tell a lot of thought has gone into the manufacture of this chassis/case. I'm not one to vertically mount GPU's. However, in this case I have been persuaded lol. PC cases are expensive these days, so your in-depth reviews are muchly appreciated. Cheers - Jass.
Hello JassassinE, welcome to my channel and thank you for the feedback. Am glad this did aid you in someways. All the very best with your pc build. Infact having GPU vertically mounted has its advantage and this might interest you as why it’s of advantage th-cam.com/video/1SPioF78x_E/w-d-xo.html
@@KleoYan Could you tell me if there is a website that sells all the cables for a Full modular power supply, but those cables covered with nylon? In the country where I live I only find nylon-coated extension cables, but I don't find the power supply cables themselves.
I would love a smaller version of this case... For MATX motherboards... Just as the asus prime ap201... But with Tuf aesthetic, double chamber and smaller dimensions since the PSU will be hidden in the rear using the extra front space for airflow and sick compact builds without going into miniITX
The problem is that SFX PSU are way too expensive for 1000W. The M-ATX motherboard nowaday are very rare and cheap made. I saw the Crosshair X670E Gene is over $600+.
@@mualan4683 almost everything is that expensive if you look how the gpus are being priced... However for MATX you don't expend the most expensive 1000w psu nor the x670e, I saw a b560e Tuf and 750w build not too long ago and was bonkers... When you are going to go all out with a build you either go with ATX/E-ATX or mini-Itx... For the price point of these cases you definitely would use it for mid range but cool looking builds that requires les than 1000w psu's!
@@mualan4683 hi welcome back, I don’t deny what you are saying. Though this case allows you to use a full ATX PSU, 1000w PSU be it sfx or atx, both are rather expensive. As for motherboard. Some m-atx are still manageable interms of price like the MSI mortar series, the ASRock PG and the gigabyte ax too. But I do agree is abit high for the price for these days of motherboard.
I got the case in white a week ago, my peeve also with the case is you carnt use a 360mm rad on the back wall without losing out on a fan above or below because of where the AIO tubes leave the radiator im sure my CPU would drop 10 degrees if I could have my AIO as a intake, also iv had to block the rear panel rear vent with my fan orientation being the same as yours as there is no filter for that but they included 3 for the back panel wall vents.
Hi dizzee G, welcome to my channel. Yes there are limitations on the AIO mount at the side. As for the 3 fan bracket at the back. I have tested it out. it's best to push air through to cool the motherboard in someways. On my 7950X without the three fans my highest consistant clock speed is at 5.1 to 5.16Ghz with random boost clock of 5.5 to 5.56Ghz. if I am to place three fans and to blow cool air to the motherboard area, I am able to achieve a consistancy of 5.2 to 5.25Ghz with random boost of 5.6 to 5.68Ghz. Once again thank you to have visit and to leave your valuable feedback. thank you!
thank you so much for this nice review. Just bought this case for a inno3d 4090 and I hope I can put it horizontally :D also I bought the PSU Corsair HX1500I. Guess things are going to be tight inside :D however I love the military look of this case that's why I choose it
Hi esperando el render, welcome to my channel. Maybe get the height of your GPU. I would say Infact for most 4090, you can’t fit as you need to consider the additional height of the 12VHPRW connector. You will need another 20mm inorder not to bend the cable and to be able to close the side panel.
@@KleoYan thank you so much for reply! This is the size of my card: Length 336mm Height 145mm Width 60mm I'm going to buy ASAP the cable from corsair for avoid the adaptor, but I live in Hungary and seems like there isn't shops with stocks now in the whole Europe Do you think is a better Idea to put it on vertical?
@@esperandoelrender hi, based on your height of the inno3d 4090 card, I don't think is a good idea to plus it horizontally as you only left 15mm tall for your 12HVPWR connector and to be bend. I would advise to do a GPU vertical mount instead. As I try to search in amazon USA, EU and SG, most run out of stock for the 12VHPWR cable for corsair, your best bet is to get it from cablemod store.cablemod.com/compatibility/
@@KleoYan I'll check that thank you so much. Btw In vertical even with the adaptor from nvidia before I get the proper cable should be fine too right? Thank you so much
@@esperandoelrender Hi esperando, if you doing vertical, so long you clip it tight down. you should not have an issue. but make sure not to bend it too much.
Great review again. I just bought the white version of this case and feel like I am now ready to build knowing all the weird things I may encounter. I am very curious what thermals in this case look like with gpu mounted vertically vs standard.
Hi Suzuki 4 Life, welcome back. I wish I had more time with this case and I can answer you regarding about the performance. But as based on my experience it will be best to have GPU Vertically mounted with fans below it, do test it out to see which gives you better thermal results and I will be glad to listen to your experience too. All the best with your build. 😉
Hello medivoadmin, welcome to my channel and congrats on the purchase. You will definately like this case. Once again thank you to have visit and to leave your feedback 😉
Great review! Thanks! I was wondering why Your RAM doesn't synchronize with fans lights? You didn't use the hub? Also i was wondering how does the graphics card holder connect to pc case?
Hi Jofosey, welcome to my channel and yes. My rams do not sync with my fans as the rams and plug to the motherboard. As for the vertical mount, it’s hold well. No sag or whatsoever as there is a hidden pillar between the bottom of the vertical mount and the bottom fans.
Hello DXM55_, welcome back. Each have it's own good and bad. O11D or EVO are of a bigger case which allows all kinds of Liquid AIO set up. As for this case, though there are issues at top and bottom fans if you mount a 360 liquid AIO at the side, there are other areas which I like. The most important thing which is the handle that O11D or EVO does not have. It make things so much easier to carry such a big case which a system in it. next will be the additional 3 more fans which you can mount at ther cable management are. I am not sure about others but it does help to cool down the motherboard which is good for me, since components like the areas from m.2, vrams heatsink and even ram slot will dispate heat on the motherboard. The last factor is looks. It greatly depends do you want a clean look from Lian Li O11D series or the Tank look from the Asus GT502. To me if really have to choose between the two. I would go for this GT502 as I carry cases around and it's more practical to have the handle at the top, also I love tanks so I dont mind the look.
Thank you for the very thorough overview. I'm looking at this case myself and studying the different airflow options I can do. Do you think a 360mm AIO CPU cooling unit with a 410mm tube length could successfully be mounted in the rear chamber? If not, what kind of tube length is required?
Hi Sasha, welcome to my channel. For 360 liquid AIO. It should not be an issue to mount at the rear chamber. The only thing will be, one of the side fan slot, you have to leave a hole for your tube to be routed to the front. 400 tube length is sufficient to route through.
Thank you for the nicely detailed video, I just bought this case and this will help me a lot while building it. I have one question about the ARGB case connectors. If I don't use a hub and just plug the 5V connector to my motherboard, will it still synchronize with my ARGB fans? I have a rog strix Z790-H motherboard with 4 rgb headers.
Hi Tale Karov, welcome to my channel. You can plug the case strip argb connector to the motherboard. It will sync the argb effects from your motherboard argb utility or software. No issue.
hi bro, i saw ur motherboard user manual. but there is 1 rgb header which is number 12 in that pdf. why you said u have 4 rgb header? or it's my mistake? bcuz i have z790-a wifi and it has also 1 rgb header.
@@user-fo9ce3hr5h I think you are unsure of which is to which. there are two types of RGB, first type 4pin are RGB 12volts, second type 3pin are aRGB 5volts. on the ASUS ROG B650E-F manual itself 12 is RGB 12volt rgb and 11 is aRGB, you should be using 11 and not 12. so please make sure you know which is to which.
Thank you for the detailed video. Do you think a Lian Li Galahad II Trinity 360 would fit on the side if 3 fans are used at the top or bottom since the tubing is angled at 45 degrees?
Hi gogeta01, welcome to my channel. I wish I can test it but the case was returned to Asus SG, therefore I can’t confirm and to give you an answer, real sorry.
Thank you for the informations! One question: do you know if TUF video cards also have this horizontal fitting incompatibility? More specifically, TUF 4060TI. Thanks!
Hi Tenemhur, welcome to my channel. You should not have an issue to fit the 4060Ti Tuf card, if you are referring to this card www.asus.com/sg/motherboards-components/graphics-cards/tuf-gaming/tuf-rtx4060ti-o8g-gaming/techspec/ as the case height clearance from the motherbord to the side panel is at 163mm and the Tuf 4060Ti card is at 139mm. There are more than enough space to mount it horizontally.
Hi Danilil Samoilenko, welcome to my channel this case come with the vertical mount bracket but you will need to purchase the gpu riser cable. Watch 18:48 and 27:00
Brosef was there enough space for the GPU cable if you mounted it horizontally? Saw some vids where they said the 4080/4090 cards the fotn cable is always against the glass panel. Tats abit worrysome as too bendy cables are not good for high wattage flow.

Great video! I'll probably get this case next month. It makes the 3080 TUF looks small in there LOL. I have a question about the included gpu holder. It appears it cannot be used if there are fans placed at the bottom of the case, is that so or am I seeing wrong here? Well, at least it looks like it will fit the thick artic liquid freezer 360 at the top
Hello LUIS VIGURIA LUZA, welcome to my channel. you are not wrong, with the original vertical mount provided, you can fit fans below and yes, you can mount a Arctic LF2 360 at the top.
I have this case and agree with your complaint about the side-mount 360 AIO. Have you tried mounting an AIO to the rear chamber's side bracket, though? Asus advertises it as an option.
Hi MMCedutor02, welcome to my channel. Is more of letting others know about the side. Not really a complaint. As for the rear chamber. 1st I do not like the look for it as the hose sticking out and 2nd yes it can draw cool air to the rad but hot air is hitting the motherboard so I drop the idea. The rear chamber only best to use as air intake to cool the motherboard.
@@KleoYan Fair enough :) I was actually thinking of trying to put a rad there one day with the rad fans set to exhaust air from the case, but I'll see.
@@MMCeditor02 yup it’s up to individual to see what’s possible in this case. This vid is based on my own way. Others might have better way. This is where I get to learn from you too 😉 All the very best with your build 👍 do let us know your results and findings. That will greatly help others too. Thank you again 😊
Hello Sparkman, welcome to my channel. If you press and hold on to the led button for 5 seconds. It will trigger motherboard argb mode and if the argb cable of the case is not plug to your motherboard argb header. It will just turn off the argb dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ODD/DC/GT502/Q21477_TUF_Gaming_GT502_A5_UM_V3_WEB.pdf?model=TUF%20Gaming%20GT502
Hi Oleksandr Kanaikin, welcome to my channel. I don’t think you can do that as the 240 rad has extra material protruding out. It’s not like it’s 240mm where you can place the 3rd fan.
Great video! I am planning to use this case with Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360. But I am not shure if this AIO will not block the cable access to CPU because it is 360 and can not be moved in front like 280. Did you try Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 at top? Thx
Hello Peter Benicky, welcome to my channel and Happy New Year. the answer is yes you can mount a 360 LF2 without issues at the top and it will not block your EPS cables to your motherboard.
Hi Kleo, I'm waiting for my new PC. I have purchased the 360 Performance (3 fans) and 7 (3+3+1) 120 TL fans. The processor will be an i5 14600KF, the graphics card is a 4070 Super and the case is the Asus TUFF gt502. What distribution would you recommend? Your opinion would help me a lot. I live in Spain with a fairly warm climate in summer and somewhat cold in winter.
Hi Salvador Alberti, welcome back. I believe I have mentioned that if you can place it this way will be great. - Top 360 AIO with fan exhuasting - Side 3 x fans intake (Bring more cool air in to cater the top section of your motherboard area) - Bottom 3 x fans intake (to cool your GPU) - Rear 1 x fan exchuast (to assist how air out as top with the 320 rad, there are restriction)
Hey mate! Nice in depth vid! I'm planning to buy this case but my only concern is how to plug the 3pin 5V cable to my old Asus TUF B450 plus gaming. The 3pin is meant for ARGB devices but my mobos header is the 4pin 12V RGB. Any ideas?
Hi Void, welcome to my channel. Your board only support RGB and not ARGB. You might want to get an ARGB controller. That’s the only way you can control the ARGB effect on the case strip.
@@MickExile ok my bad. infact this case does have the argb controller which you toggle the button. You do not need to connect the argb to your motherboard argb header. unless you choose to use your motherboard argb utility to control the case strip. But in your case, your motherboard can't so you can just use the case toggle switch to cycle the argb effects.
@@MickExile you are most welcome. one thing to take note, make sure before you purchase this case, check to see if it's argb enabled. As I do hear about others getting this case without the argb function. all the best and good luck! 😉
@@stundardutch5320 hi and nope, I did try to write in and request from Thermaltake but with no response. so am sorry that I do not have any info about that case.

Hi razorkaiser, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback. I like to check do your case crest have a sata and argb cable? If you have, plus the sata cable to your psu sata source and the argb cable to your motherboard header, use the motherboard argb utility to control the argb effects.
Amazing review! I just had 1 quick question... I know it says 360mm AIOs are supported but would a 402mm radiator fit at the top? I was going to buy the deepcool LS720 but after seeing this I'm not sure it will fit! haha
Hello Sebastian De Pua Guardiola, welcome to my channel. If you are getting the LS720. It’s of no issue to fit. You will only need to worry if it’s of Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360. By the way your 403 means? Or do you mean 420 AIO? 420 will not fit in this case.
@@SebastianDPG I see, no worries, it's always good to ask or to seek more, so that you dont make mistakes like the sizes and such. All the best with your build. 😉
hi, for RGB front panel button, we have 2 cable. 24:15 1 cable connect to ARGB header on motherboard right? 1 another goes where? i think u said in case's hub right? i bought a normal model which i think it hasn't hub. ------------- my mb is prime z790-a wifi and it have only 1 rgb header which i want to connect that to pomp rgb (lt720). how can i connect second connector (rgb gt502) to that header at same time with lt720 pomp rgb? if i use splitter, didn't it overvoltage on that header? is this way safe? thanks. (i don't want to use controller hub yet).
Hi M, welcome back. plug the ARGB cable of the case to your motherboard ARGB header. as for the other cable, it's for you to plug into an argb hub which is not provided in this case. you can ignore this cable.
thanks dude , but is not better if u make it like this ( top,bottom intake /side,back exhaust) because alwys priority is to provide intake fresh air for cpu & gpu@@KleoYan
@@oldschool_bamagatrader9960 you can give it a try but as what my experience with fish tank type of chassis, if I am to apply your suggested method, the warm air is trap within the motherboard area and it takes time to exhaust.

Hi raydioz, welcome to my channel, yes the clearance is only at 163mm. For RTX 3000 series card not an issue, just that the RTX 4000 series, as the 12HVPWR connector will be bend, so best to use vertical mount instead of horizontal. I am in favor of using vertical mount more than horizontal as this is the reason why th-cam.com/video/1SPioF78x_E/w-d-xo.html (better thermal results)

hi, can you please say i should connect cable fan from controller hub to which header? "cpu_fan" or "cpu_opt" or "cha_fan"? my mb is prime z790-a wifi.
Hi Rezuan Isham, welcome to my channel. For liquid AIO with radiator 28mm thickness and fans, It is possible to mount at the top. I would advise not to do at the side. You will hit into issues whereby your top front and bottom front fans will not be able to fit. Also please take note of your motherboard side vrm and your rams profile if you doing push pull configuration at the top.
Hi , Cedric Lagarde, welcome to my channel. If to compare with the O11D family from lian li, yup this is something unique and the build quailty is top notch.
When using a ARGB Hub connected to the cases front switch, do you need to connect all fans into the same hub or will they all sync using the front button even with some fans connected directly to the motherboard ARGB header also? I have 2 x 3 packs for the ASUS TUF fans and 1 x additions for the rear of the case. and will also add a 360 AIO so wondering the best way to connect and sync everything up.
Hi The Expat Gunner, welcome to my channel. I only plug all argb connectors of the fans to the argb fan hub. As for the Fan load, I connect them directly to the motherboard. Same apply to the Liquid AIO fans. This way you can control your fans RPM via the motherboard separately (recommended) and to have the ARGB effects controlled by the remote controller from the argb fan hub or to use the case switch (Make sure the motherboard argb connector is connected to the case button and to set the argb fan hub)
i have the gt502 case but i am unable to connect the case argb cable to my motherboard because it has a male connector so can you tell how to you connect the case argb cable to motherboard??
Hi Shubham Goyal, welcome to my channel. Hmm something is not right, I recall connecting the case argb to my motherboard. You might want to check with the seller who sold you this unit.. If not, you will need to get a converter.

Hi Yan, was wondering if you can find out from ASUS, for those of us who had bought the normal GT502 without integrated ARGB hub - is it possible to buy this integrated ARGB hub (that was included with GT502 Plus) anywhere? I don't know why ASUS decided to market two separate versions of the GT502 cases without ARGB hub - it can't have been that much of a cost saving, and it leaves the ARGB control cable useless in the plain GT502 case.
i am using the arctic controller, slight incompatibility as it does not have a pin for the casing switch but everything else work with my no rgb mobo. i just couldn’t accept myself buying TUF super noisy and slightly pricy fan.
HI, sorry i ask u again. i just want to know if i use a hub controller for my fans on pc, where should i connect the hub cables to motherboard? I want to know which headers on mb? can u say it one by one. for example: 1- USB2 from hub to USB 2.0 header of motherboard. 2- RGB from hub to header ??? of motherboard. 3- fan power from hub to header ??? of motherboard. 4- SATA Power from hub to SATA cable of PSU.

@@user-fo9ce3hr5h to use an external fan hub, it depends on which type of hub. it's either it's powered by Sata and includes argb or it is not powered nor have any argbs included. I would advise you to read the instruction manaul with your purchase the fan hub. I can't just assume and to tell you.

@@kevin26exe oh ok my bad and you mean the Zotac 4090 amp airo right. The dimension of this card is 355.5mm x 149.6mm x 72.1mm. Which the width is similar to the Auros Master shown in this video. I don’t think is a good idea to fit horizontal. Vertically will be of a better choice.

@@KleoYan both....because there r odd number of fans, it will be either negative pressure or positive pressure buildup inside the case....there's this guy Mr. Matt Lee (i think) who used only 8 fans - top 360 aio, side 120mm, bottom 3x120mm, and rear 120mm...and he showed airflow with smoke and there was no smoke left inside showing balanced pressure...which wont happen otherwise
Hi Noneofyour Business, welcome to my channel. It’s partially correct. There are some case manufacturer does have a support bracket and some gpu or motherboard manufacturers do have GPU support brackets too.
@@KleoYan yea gpu has been sagging since strix 1070 but they keep making it bigger 🤦♂️. no way to make this build look nice with AIO. i was thinking distro plate build but then again i dont want to tear off my gpu heatsink and finally i decided air cooling is still the best for me. 😂. i wish they could have made the back exhaust fan 140mm compatible.
@@NoneofyourBusiness-gy9yw I see, to be honest, most of my build are vertically mounted and I have a physical sponge to prevent the card front sagging.
@@KleoYan yea but even when its vertical its sagging without the gpu stand or bracket its just crazy. so vertical and horizontal comparison which has better temps ?

Thank you for your video. Yours was the only one to actually go through in detail the various features of the case, including the fact that oversized GPUs such as RTX 4xxx series are only possible to be mounted vertically and the case doesn't have enough clearance anyway for the 12VHPWR power connector if mounted horizontally. A good case but several glaring omissions by ASUS. Also on the white version of this case, the front panel connectors are all on one F_PANEL block - which is not mentioned in the manual at all.
Hi WB, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback.
@@KleoYan Yan what was the length of the riser cable that you used here - was it 10 or 15cm? I was thinking of the next gen RTX 4xxx due to how wide they are - I need to find out exactly the right cable length otherwise there is nowhere for excess cable lengths to go to.

Hi joven canezal, welcome to my channel and thank you for the compliment. All the very best with your build too. 😉
Whats the best fan intake/exhaust balance configuration for this case tho? lol
It's possible to have up to 13 fans in this so I'm kinda speculating... bottom (3), side (3) and back (3) for intake, rear (1) and top (3) for exhaust? lol
That would be too much positive pressure, I'm usually always for atleast 50%/50% or 60%/40% fan balance but this case can be like 80%/20% intake/exhaust balance if you know what I mean... lol
I also wish the side panel atleast was like a door, I really like such designs. It'll be kinda tricky to have a full custom water cooled (gpu and cpu) system in that case without sacrificing a fan slot or two, which ruins the aesthetic imo. I give this case a 9/10. 👍
Hi fluzzles, welcome to my channel. positioning of fans is up to individual to test it. for me best configuration will be top with AIO exhaust, side intake, bottom intake, rear exhuast. In addition, I will only mount GPU vertically. It's not for looks but for thermal. as for the other side of the case. adding three more intake fans does shows improvement on motherboard and cpu temp but it add noise and it will only drop by 1 to 2 degrees by using three more additional fans which to me not very practical.
@@KleoYan I see. Thanks! :)
@@fluzzles you are most welcome.

@@KleoYan Could you tell me if there is a website that sells all the cables for a Full modular power supply, but those cables covered with nylon? In the country where I live I only find nylon-coated extension cables, but I don't find the power supply cables themselves.
I would love a smaller version of this case... For MATX motherboards... Just as the asus prime ap201... But with Tuf aesthetic, double chamber and smaller dimensions since the PSU will be hidden in the rear using the extra front space for airflow and sick compact builds without going into miniITX
Hi Stephan Cardenas-Navarro, BINGO! I like your thoughts.. will submit your suggestion to them. Thank you!
The problem is that SFX PSU are way too expensive for 1000W. The M-ATX motherboard nowaday are very rare and cheap made. I saw the Crosshair X670E Gene is over $600+.
@@mualan4683 almost everything is that expensive if you look how the gpus are being priced... However for MATX you don't expend the most expensive 1000w psu nor the x670e, I saw a b560e Tuf and 750w build not too long ago and was bonkers... When you are going to go all out with a build you either go with ATX/E-ATX or mini-Itx... For the price point of these cases you definitely would use it for mid range but cool looking builds that requires les than 1000w psu's!
@@mualan4683 hi welcome back, I don’t deny what you are saying. Though this case allows you to use a full ATX PSU, 1000w PSU be it sfx or atx, both are rather expensive. As for motherboard. Some m-atx are still manageable interms of price like the MSI mortar series, the ASRock PG and the gigabyte ax too. But I do agree is abit high for the price for these days of motherboard.
I got the case in white a week ago, my peeve also with the case is you carnt use a 360mm rad on the back wall without losing out on a fan above or below because of where the AIO tubes leave the radiator im sure my CPU would drop 10 degrees if I could have my AIO as a intake, also iv had to block the rear panel rear vent with my fan orientation being the same as yours as there is no filter for that but they included 3 for the back panel wall vents.
Hi dizzee G, welcome to my channel. Yes there are limitations on the AIO mount at the side. As for the 3 fan bracket at the back. I have tested it out. it's best to push air through to cool the motherboard in someways. On my 7950X without the three fans my highest consistant clock speed is at 5.1 to 5.16Ghz with random boost clock of 5.5 to 5.56Ghz. if I am to place three fans and to blow cool air to the motherboard area, I am able to achieve a consistancy of 5.2 to 5.25Ghz with random boost of 5.6 to 5.68Ghz.

thank you so much for this nice review. Just bought this case for a inno3d 4090 and I hope I can put it horizontally :D also I bought the PSU Corsair HX1500I. Guess things are going to be tight inside :D however I love the military look of this case that's why I choose it
Hi esperando el render, welcome to my channel. Maybe get the height of your GPU. I would say Infact for most 4090, you can’t fit as you need to consider the additional height of the 12VHPRW connector. You will need another 20mm inorder not to bend the cable and to be able to close the side panel.
@@KleoYan thank you so much for reply!
This is the size of my card:
Length 336mm
Height 145mm
Width 60mm
I'm going to buy ASAP the cable from corsair for avoid the adaptor, but I live in Hungary and seems like there isn't shops with stocks now in the whole Europe
Do you think is a better Idea to put it on vertical?
@@esperandoelrender hi, based on your height of the inno3d 4090 card, I don't think is a good idea to plus it horizontally as you only left 15mm tall for your 12HVPWR connector and to be bend. I would advise to do a GPU vertical mount instead. As I try to search in amazon USA, EU and SG, most run out of stock for the 12VHPWR cable for corsair, your best bet is to get it from cablemod store.cablemod.com/compatibility/
@@KleoYan I'll check that thank you so much.
Btw In vertical even with the adaptor from nvidia before I get the proper cable should be fine too right? Thank you so much
@@esperandoelrender Hi esperando, if you doing vertical, so long you clip it tight down. you should not have an issue. but make sure not to bend it too much.
im bit more interest in back radiator. cuz i never seen any case done this.. i wish you show it

Hi Suzuki 4 Life, welcome back. I wish I had more time with this case and I can answer you regarding about the performance. But as based on my experience it will be best to have GPU Vertically mounted with fans below it, do test it out to see which gives you better thermal results and I will be glad to listen to your experience too.

I was wondering why Your RAM doesn't synchronize with fans lights? You didn't use the hub? Also i was wondering how does the graphics card holder connect to pc case?
Hi Jofosey, welcome to my channel and yes. My rams do not sync with my fans as the rams and plug to the motherboard. As for the vertical mount, it’s hold well. No sag or whatsoever as there is a hidden pillar between the bottom of the vertical mount and the bottom fans.
Good detailed video again.
How do you think this thing stacks up against the O11 Dynamic or Evo?
Hello DXM55_, welcome back. Each have it's own good and bad. O11D or EVO are of a bigger case which allows all kinds of Liquid AIO set up. As for this case, though there are issues at top and bottom fans if you mount a 360 liquid AIO at the side, there are other areas which I like. The most important thing which is the handle that O11D or EVO does not have. It make things so much easier to carry such a big case which a system in it. next will be the additional 3 more fans which you can mount at ther cable management are. I am not sure about others but it does help to cool down the motherboard which is good for me, since components like the areas from m.2, vrams heatsink and even ram slot will dispate heat on the motherboard. The last factor is looks. It greatly depends do you want a clean look from Lian Li O11D series or the Tank look from the Asus GT502. To me if really have to choose between the two. I would go for this GT502 as I carry cases around and it's more practical to have the handle at the top, also I love tanks so I dont mind the look.
Thank you for the very thorough overview. I'm looking at this case myself and studying the different airflow options I can do. Do you think a 360mm AIO CPU cooling unit with a 410mm tube length could successfully be mounted in the rear chamber? If not, what kind of tube length is required?
Hi Sasha, welcome to my channel. For 360 liquid AIO. It should not be an issue to mount at the rear chamber. The only thing will be, one of the side fan slot, you have to leave a hole for your tube to be routed to the front. 400 tube length is sufficient to route through.

I have this case and agree with your complaint about the side-mount 360 AIO. Have you tried mounting an AIO to the rear chamber's side bracket, though? Asus advertises it as an option.
Hi MMCedutor02, welcome to my channel. Is more of letting others know about the side. Not really a complaint. As for the rear chamber. 1st I do not like the look for it as the hose sticking out and 2nd yes it can draw cool air to the rad but hot air is hitting the motherboard so I drop the idea. The rear chamber only best to use as air intake to cool the motherboard.
@@KleoYan Fair enough :) I was actually thinking of trying to put a rad there one day with the rad fans set to exhaust air from the case, but I'll see.

Hi Oleksandr Kanaikin, welcome to my channel. I don’t think you can do that as the 240 rad has extra material protruding out. It’s not like it’s 240mm where you can place the 3rd fan.
Great video! I am planning to use this case with Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360. But I am not shure if this AIO will not block the cable access to CPU because it is 360 and can not be moved in front like 280. Did you try Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 at top? Thx

- Top 360 AIO with fan exhuasting
- Side 3 x fans intake (Bring more cool air in to cater the top section of your motherboard area)
- Bottom 3 x fans intake (to cool your GPU)
- Rear 1 x fan exchuast (to assist how air out as top with the 320 rad, there are restriction)
Hey mate! Nice in depth vid! I'm planning to buy this case but my only concern is how to plug the 3pin 5V cable to my old Asus TUF B450 plus gaming. The 3pin is meant for ARGB devices but my mobos header is the 4pin 12V RGB. Any ideas?
Hi Void, welcome to my channel. Your board only support RGB and not ARGB. You might want to get an ARGB controller. That’s the only way you can control the ARGB effect on the case strip.
@@KleoYan Glad for the fast response! Well, with an ARGB controller i will get the front logo working but i will lose the ARGB effect. Is that right?
@@MickExile ok my bad. infact this case does have the argb controller which you toggle the button. You do not need to connect the argb to your motherboard argb header. unless you choose to use your motherboard argb utility to control the case strip. But in your case, your motherboard can't so you can just use the case toggle switch to cycle the argb effects.
@@KleoYan Oh okay! Thank you! 🙏
@@MickExile you are most welcome. one thing to take note, make sure before you purchase this case, check to see if it's argb enabled. As I do hear about others getting this case without the argb function. all the best and good luck! 😉

Hi razorkaiser, welcome to my channel and thank you for your valuable feedback. I like to check do your case crest have a sata and argb cable? If you have, plus the sata cable to your psu sata source and the argb cable to your motherboard header, use the motherboard argb utility to control the argb effects.
@@KleoYan thanks for the fast answer. I checked but I didn’t find the sata cable and the argb connector. Its really strange
@@razor8200 ok then that’s the non argb version. The one that have those cables is the argb version of this case.

Amazing review! I just had 1 quick question... I know it says 360mm AIOs are supported but would a 402mm radiator fit at the top? I was going to buy the deepcool LS720 but after seeing this I'm not sure it will fit! haha
Hello Sebastian De Pua Guardiola, welcome to my channel. If you are getting the LS720. It’s of no issue to fit. You will only need to worry if it’s of Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360. By the way your 403 means? Or do you mean 420 AIO? 420 will not fit in this case.

hi, for RGB front panel button, we have 2 cable.
24:15
1 cable connect to ARGB header on motherboard right?
1 another goes where? i think u said in case's hub right?
i bought a normal model which i think it hasn't hub.
-------------
my mb is prime z790-a wifi and it have only 1 rgb header which i want to connect that to pomp rgb (lt720).
how can i connect second connector (rgb gt502) to that header at same time with lt720 pomp rgb?
if i use splitter, didn't it overvoltage on that header? is this way safe? thanks. (i don't want to use controller hub yet).
Hi M, welcome back. plug the ARGB cable of the case to your motherboard ARGB header. as for the other cable, it's for you to plug into an argb hub which is not provided in this case. you can ignore this cable.
could you identify the fan direction ( intake and exhaust ) for bottom top side and back
Hi OldSchool_BamagaTrader, welcome back, top is with liquid AIO with fans exhaust, side are intake, bottom intake and rear exhaust.
thanks dude , but is not better if u make it like this ( top,bottom intake /side,back exhaust) because alwys priority is to provide intake fresh air for cpu & gpu@@KleoYan
@@oldschool_bamagatrader9960 you can give it a try but as what my experience with fish tank type of chassis, if I am to apply your suggested method, the warm air is trap within the motherboard area and it takes time to exhaust. I know you will mentioned that the rear will do the job but in reality, it does little. now this is not related to this chassis but the blueprint is of the same. th-cam.com/video/alzjcxuK3wk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=MqjSE0fBpQ3plUaP
Great review and you cover aspects people actually need... not quite sure why you couldn't fit the GPU horizontally though, is it >160mm?
Hi raydioz, welcome to my channel, yes the clearance is only at 163mm. For RTX 3000 series card not an issue, just that the RTX 4000 series, as the 12HVPWR connector will be bend, so best to use vertical mount instead of horizontal. I am in favor of using vertical mount more than horizontal as this is the reason why th-cam.com/video/1SPioF78x_E/w-d-xo.html (better thermal results)
Nice
Hi boukhari messtapha, welcome to my channel and thank you for the feedback.
Hi. About the vertical mounting for GPU, what is the 'optimal length' of the pcie riser cable needed? (assuming connecting from the top slot of ATX motherboard)
Hi Paulus Sidabalok, welcome to my channel. It will be best to use a 300mm riser cable.
@@KleoYan Thank you very much ❤❤
@@PaulusSidabalok you are most welcome 👍
hi, can you please say
i should connect cable fan from controller hub to which header? "cpu_fan" or "cpu_opt" or "cha_fan"?
my mb is prime z790-a wifi.
it depends what fan you are connect to the hub.. if it's radiator fan, you should plug to CPU_FAN, if it's case fans, plug to CHA_FAN.
I have a question. Is it able to do a push & pull configuration in the top or the side?
Hi Rezuan Isham, welcome to my channel. For liquid AIO with radiator 28mm thickness and fans, It is possible to mount at the top. I would advise not to do at the side. You will hit into issues whereby your top front and bottom front fans will not be able to fit. Also please take note of your motherboard side vrm and your rams profile if you doing push pull configuration at the top.
@@KleoYan based on your review on montech king and Tuf which one will be better in terms of airflow and mounting push and pull capabilities?
@@razerangelri both cases are possible with push pull so long you keep the radiator to 28mm thick. As for airflow, Montech King95 has the advantage.
nice gadget
Hi , Cedric Lagarde, welcome to my channel. If to compare with the O11D family from lian li, yup this is something unique and the build quailty is top notch.
How about the 360mm freezer II on top?
Hello Davis-PC, welcome to my channel. You can mount 360 Arctic Liquid Freezer II. No issue.
When using a ARGB Hub connected to the cases front switch, do you need to connect all fans into the same hub or will they all sync using the front button even with some fans connected directly to the motherboard ARGB header also? I have 2 x 3 packs for the ASUS TUF fans and 1 x additions for the rear of the case. and will also add a 360 AIO so wondering the best way to connect and sync everything up.
Hi The Expat Gunner, welcome to my channel. I only plug all argb connectors of the fans to the argb fan hub. As for the Fan load, I connect them directly to the motherboard. Same apply to the Liquid AIO fans. This way you can control your fans RPM via the motherboard separately (recommended) and to have the ARGB effects controlled by the remote controller from the argb fan hub or to use the case switch (Make sure the motherboard argb connector is connected to the case button and to set the argb fan hub)
i have the gt502 case but i am unable to connect the case argb cable to my motherboard because it has a male connector so can you tell how to you connect the case argb cable to motherboard??
Hi Shubham Goyal, welcome to my channel. Hmm something is not right, I recall connecting the case argb to my motherboard. You might want to check with the seller who sold you this unit.. If not, you will need to get a converter.

Can i put 3 hard drives in the rear tray of the Aio?
Hi Ryan, welcome to my channel. I am terrible sorry that I have returned this case to Asus SG, unable to test it out for you. you might want to try asking at Asus reddit forum www.reddit.com/r/ASUS/
Hi Yan, was wondering if you can find out from ASUS, for those of us who had bought the normal GT502 without integrated ARGB hub - is it possible to buy this integrated ARGB hub (that was included with GT502 Plus) anywhere? I don't know why ASUS decided to market two separate versions of the GT502 cases without ARGB hub - it can't have been that much of a cost saving, and it leaves the ARGB control cable useless in the plain GT502 case.
Hello WB, welcome back, sure will help you ask. Btw call me Kleo instead of Yan thanks.
i am using the arctic controller, slight incompatibility as it does not have a pin for the casing switch but everything else work with my no rgb mobo. i just couldn’t accept myself buying TUF super noisy and slightly pricy fan.
HI, sorry i ask u again.
i just want to know if i use a hub controller for my fans on pc,
where should i connect the hub cables to motherboard? I want to know which headers on mb?
can u say it one by one.
for example:
1- USB2 from hub to USB 2.0 header of motherboard.
2- RGB from hub to header ??? of motherboard.
3- fan power from hub to header ??? of motherboard.
4- SATA Power from hub to SATA cable of PSU. ( i don't know hub controller has sata power cable or not?)

Hello M, welcome back, I have no idea what and which device are you using? can you at least tell me what are the pc parts you've and the case you have? I am confuse of what you are trying to ask. does your question relates to this vase? if it is, I have explain clearly on the connectors of this case as where they should be place?
@@KleoYan my case is gt502. i haven't controller hub for fans yet and i didn't buy it so far. i just want to know the connection of controller which connect to psu and motherboard. bcuz i want to buy it in future. based on videos i saw there is 3 or 4 cable for controller hub that one for usb 2 or sata, one for rgb and one for pwm (or fan).
i just want to know these controller cable connect to which headers of mb and psu.
thanks.
@@user-fo9ce3hr5h to use an external fan hub, it depends on which type of hub. it's either it's powered by Sata and includes argb or it is not powered nor have any argbs included. I would advise you to read the instruction manaul with your purchase the fan hub. I can't just assume and to tell you.
hi, is this case compatible with corsair shift rm1000x power supply?
Hi
Furkan Santimci, welcome to my channel, as for this, I am not able to answer you as 1) I have returned this case to Asus Singapore and 2) I do not own a Corsair Shift PSU. do pardon me, thank you!
I put Asus Tuf Gaming RTX 4080 OC on to this case parallelly (to the floor) and I hardly closed the front glass panel of the case because of the 600W power cable of the GPU.
I fear that there may be enough pressure to malfunction the power cable because of bent and burn the card :/

Or any other solution please?
