MSI MPG Series SEKIRA 500P, Premium Mid-Tower Gaming PC Case: Tool Less Tempered Glass Side Panel, 120mm Fans, Modular 360mm Radiator Bracket, Vertical Graphics Card Support

Case is well designed and good air flow. Price is a bit high but the quality is excellent.

This is a really nice case for what its priced at. The materials used are top quality and the access panels on either side is a nice touch and makes cable management a lot easier. The only thing that could have been a little better is the slot where the PSU goes, its a very tight fit and getting all your cables to nicely fit in the small cavity between the HDD storage and the PSU is a little tough. Overall its a great case.

Decent Construction and Very Pretty. The side panel mounting is unique but easy to use. Great looking, and mostly functional ATX case. Taking off 2 Stars for several reasons: 1)The Mystic Lighting of the case while beautiful has problems. This MSI case paired with a MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Edge WIFI motherboard wont allow software control(via MSI Dragon Center) of the MSI pre-installed RGB controller and MSI RGB fans. The only way to control the preinstalled RGB fans is via the button on the top/front panel of the case. So color syncing with any other RGB components (RAM, GPU, Motherboard, etc) is not possible. Note: If you have no other RBG, the fans look great and this is not an issue. 2)Probably the biggest issue: The Power Supply slot is terribly small and not big enough to hold a standard ATX Power Supply. The specified dimensions appear to be enough, but that is assuming no cables coming out the back of the power supply. Plan to either A) Remove the 3.5 HDD cage(easy enough to do with 5 screws) or B) get a XFX PSU or other small form factor PSU. 3) Airflow with the preinstalled RGB fans is pretty dismal, but that should be expected with a solid front panel with only small side vents for intake.

So it looks like you cant install a blu-ray drive. Thats insane. I havent even used the case yet but now Im going to have to return it because I dont want to have to buy an external blu-ray burner. If Im wrong please tell me how but I dont see how you can have an internal blu-ray drive hooked up to this case. Everything else about it looks nice. Edit: I upgraded the rating to 2 stars because Im keeping the case and buying the burner. There are no other cases that have what I want thats the same price as this one, I would have to spend 50 more dollars so I might as well keep the case and buy the burner.

This case is good quality for the price and is very compatible with rgb lighting. Very nice design and would recommend it to anyone who is looking into buying a new pc case.

Let me preface my review with why Im only giving it a 4 stars instead of 5. I had a headache mounting the Artic Liquid Freezer II 360mm (IT FITS, dont get me wrong) but with how thick the radiator is on the unit mounting the last fan I had to mount it without the fan first and then slide the fan down in between the space around the shroud and front of the case then screw it in. The harddrive cage also would not fit with the fan installed and the power supply in place also (So I have a harddrive just resting in the bottom in one of the sleds). The last reason why is the very first color profile on the RGB profile. The front of the case gets a rainbow color instead of a purple/blue color so it creates a mismatch (I unplugged the front LED so I can have it match better) ANYWAYS, this case feels SO premium for the $120 it costs. Very rigid and sturdy construction. Plenty of room in the front of the case so air can easily be pulled into the case (even if you run a push/pull configuration on the radiator as I do). I cant say Im a fan of how the side panels mount to the case, but it DOES work pretty well. Plenty of room to cable manage in the back and RUBBER GROMMETS. I keep seeing cases nowadays that are ditching the rubber grommets so this is a HUGE plus to me personally. I do wish the shroud had holes cutout into like say the fractal design cases etc (I think it looks better than a solid smooth piece of metal) but thats personal taste. Fits my 2080Ti FTW3 with a push/pull Arctic 360mm cooler no problem. Very easy to build in, solid RGB and very good construction Highly recommend.

This case is really, really big. I took measurements of my office prior to buying the case using the advertised dimensions and still did not realize how much space it would take up. With that being said, the extra room inside the case is nice to have and will be very useful when I eventually upgrade to water cooling. The case is very sleek and beautiful to look at and the hinged glass doors provide a welcome way to easily access the interior. My biggest gripe with this case are the fans which is why I removed one star. The fans are positioned so that the fan frames block the air inlets reducing the amount of air that can be moved. Additionally, the front fans are about 50% blocked by sheetmetal further reducing the airflow. Lastly, the top fans are mounted as inlet instead of as exhaust and need to be flipped over for correct airflow, which isn’t as pretty since the fan frame is now visible through the top of the case. If a little more thought had been put into the airflow characteristics then this would be a top rated case.

This case is fantastic to look at and offers a modular style design thats easy to suit your needs. This case was designed with aesthetics over performance as the case has severe issues with airflow. The case is designed to intake air from the front and top and exhaust it out the back. Unfortunately the design of the front is abysmal and does not let much air in causing issues if you use high end components that suck a lot of power and generate a lot of heat. Having the back glass door off helped prevent my case from thermal throttling which isnt a good sign at all. If your build involves efficient components that dont give off a lot of heat, this case can work. Otherwise, youre best looking for something with way more airflow.

Good case and easy to build in, just needs better air flow.

The Case arrived slower than date listed. Case arrived with damaged fan plug. Then I requested a replacement and never received it. Ordering a different case.
