Torn between Define Mini C Tempered Glass and Meshify C. Yung meshify may option ako na if in case mag ATX ako, ready na. Pero comfortable na kasi ako sa mATX and wala din naman ako balak mag LCS except for the AIOs for CPU only. Plus, pwede ko ipatong yung Define Mini C sa table for display purpose. Hehe.

In terms of size hindi naman sila nagkakalayo, mas matangkad lang yung Meshify C by an inch and a half. Yung desktop footprint nila would be the same :-)
If you are using a Micro-ATX motherboard now I think mas OK yung Define C Mini Tempered Glass in terms of aesthetics. The build will look "full" from the inside and you avoid that blank empty space sa lower portion ng motherboard. Also mas madali itago yung miscellaneous wires connected sa bottom edge ng motherboard for a cleaner look.
For the best airflow I would definitely go with Meshify C. For quiet operation with good airflow I would go with the Define Mini C TG. If dusty yung environment yung Meshify C may need more frequent wiping down kasi dust will definitely accumulate sa front grill. Yung Define C is also a dust vaccum but hindi naman halata from the outside hehe...
may mga naka Phanteks Evolv TG po ba dito? same po ba ang build quality sa ATX version? kaka buo ko lang nang ATX rig pero mag switch na ako to MATX na lalakihan talaga ako just need a nice case
Mga 30 minutes ko din pinag tabi, tinitigan, hinawakan, google, picture (nasita pa ko sa store sa gilmore dahil bawal pa kumuha ng picture) and icompare ito kay Meshify C. Winner pa din sa akin sa Define Mini C.:)
Yes maganda sya sir. Previously owned the Window Version of it before I switched to Cube case for a while. Perfrect ito for on top of the table set up. :)

Baka makapal na masyado yung backplate ng GPU or naka-angat ng konti from the PCB. Tingin ko no harm naman kasi non-conductive yung plastic like material gamit sa memory slots. Pwede mo din lagyan ng electrical tape yung part ng backplate that touches the memory slots to be safe.
Also if you notice, mga memory slots ngayon single tab lang to eject the memory stick. So you can still eject the memory stick from the slot without having to remove the videocard.
If bothered ka by the close proximity ng backplate and memory slots, you can transfer your videocard sa second PCIe x16 slot ng motherboard. Pero take note yung PCIe slot will be running at 8x instead of 16x speed.
Ano ba pwede gawin para makapag pabawas ng init ng tempered glass?
First time to play a game kagabi after ko mag palit ng cas. While playing pubg, ang temps ko sa gpu on 3440x1440 reso at high settings umaabot ng 80 to 85c. 2.5" slot kasi GTX 1080 ko kaya medyo malapit na sya sa shroud. Binaba ko ny 1080pm reso on medium settings para bumaba to at least 68c ang gpu temps. Yung CPU no sweat eh. 63c max nakuha ko.
Try mo increase yung fan speed ng front intake fan that is facing the GPU. Also re-position mo yung front fan so yung blades are aimed at the space between the GPU and PSU shroud. Medyo airflow dead spot kasi ang center hub ng fan.
Also try popping off the top panel covers and putting the dust filter in place. It might help in letting hot exhaust from your GPU escape.
Unfortunately I don't see any way to prevent the glass panel from heating up. Yung exhaust kasi ng Palit Gamerock is through the top edge and bottom edge ng card so most of the hot exhaust is aimed squarely at the side panel. Matibay naman ang tempered glass and should be able to withstand yung heat coming off from the GPU.
Di ko alam if magmeshify c or mini C TG ako for my next case.
Naka micro atx mobo kasi ako. Di ko pa kasi nakikita in person both cases. Gusto ko sana kasi ung meshify pero ang problema di siya microatx case as compared sa mini C.

Go for 230mm Bitfenix Spectre Pro. Mas malakas intake at the same time tahimik yung single 200/230mm vs 2x120mm fans. Although kailangan mo ng zipties para maikabit yung 230mm fan.
