The media could not be loaded. Okay so for starters the quality of material in this is actually really nice it"s fully battle and the level of detail and just slight modifications that they have done to it just make it pretty easy to guide cables and stuff however you want, it is also a big case so if you have a somewhat smaller computer like mine and then you"re going to only take up about like half of the PC case but it"s also nice cuz you can fit just about any component in there. Now I do have to say mounting fans especially water cooled ones is going to be pretty difficult so it doesn"t have any top mounting nor right hand side mounting for anything the only mounting you have for fans is near the rear IO and the two fan areas in the back of the case. But like I said the quality put into this case is phenomenal it even has mesh guards on every single one of the fan outlets including the bottom one for the power supply. One thing I was kind a little disappointed by it was the fact that the display is made out of acrylic they say it"s made out of tempered glass but it feels like acrylic to me I could be wrong though and the fact that if you don"t have light-ish components it"s going to be pretty difficult to see the stuff on the screen. Speaking of the screen this is definitely the best part about it a lot of people say it"s just a gimmick but I find it incredibly useful especially when I"m playing video games and I can"t just click out of all of my stuff for whatever just to see how my hardware is doing and to have it just right next to me on my PC case is honestly a huge thing for me. But if you don"t want to put little widgets on it you can put wallpapers single colored things it"s awesome like you can even black it out to where you can"t even see the inside of it. This case also comes with three fans they"re not very good they look like third-party aftermarket probably Chinese knockoffs and only one of them lights up and even the lights are pretty disappointing so if you"re getting this cuz it comes with fans sorry to say but they"re not really worth it. The rest of the case has a very nice sleek look to it the right front side of the case has this cool techie lights and I think you can change the color of it through your motherboard"s RGB software so that"s really cool and also has lights that shine through the back where all of your stuff plugs in and I like that cuz it lights up all your ports especially during night gaming so you can see if you need to unplug a plug something in. Now to get all the widgets and stuff on it I do have to admit it was a pretty decent hassle for me, mainly because I didn"t know what I was doing I"ve never done something like this before but really the only problem I had was with rain meter it just refused to open and then just a countless things you have to go through and it"s just super complicated but once you get that done you can just go to a website download a theme or a widget that you like download it and then go to rain meter upload the skin and then depending on the widget sometimes you can customize like what version you want if you want to be circle or square or just a line or something like that you could also depending on the way that you can change the color of them especially for the music ones and you just drag it over to the display and set it up however you want put your favorite background on it and set all of the software to start up when you start up your computer and you"re all set. I was told that the air flow in this case is bad and it"s definitely lacking I wouldn"t say it"s bad, I can"t remember but I do believe that my CPU temperature has risen by about 5° since I put it in this case but that could be because I was using the aftermarket fans that were in it as my cooling fan for my water cooled CPU because I thought it lit up and then I was kind of disappointed and I haven"t taken it out. The case is also very silent now if you do have an airplane of a GPU or a CPU cooler fan then you might hear it a little bit but when I started my stuff up it was a huge difference compared to my other case and I thought that was really awesome it"s probably like this because 90% of it"s closed off but it"s definitely something that I like about it. You"re going to have to buy a display cord to HDMI if your GPU only has one HDMI port like mine does I have an RX 590, you can also try to find an HDMI to DVI port if your GPU is that old but unless you have two HDMI ports on your GPU you"re going to have to buy another cord because this requires to be plugged into your graphics card. And if you just want to have fun that you can use this as a gaming monitor now it is see-through and it"s not the greatest resolution I think it"s like 1200 x 900 resolution but it is absolutely doable if you want to
The Intel booth at PAX West hosted iBUYPOWER"s Snowblind case mod, an early mock-up made to integrate an LCD panel into an NZXT Noctis 450 side panel. The team has since improved its mod by adding a light guide, useful for darkening the black colors and reducing “fuzziness” of the output, increasing contrast overall. The side of the case has also now moved the LCD PCB and wiring to the top of the panel, nearer the CPU, as an effort to improve viewing angles and reduce the discoloration observed from non-oblique angles. As a side effect, this improves cable management by rerouting the monitor wiring through the top of the case, more concealable with an N450, rather than through the PSU shroud.
The goal of this revisit was to get a better understanding of how the Snowblind works, since our PAX coverage was entirely based on a quick study on the show floor. The enclosure mounts a 5:4 (1280x1024) resolution LCD to the side of an NZXT Noctis 450, which has its left side panel manually punched by NZXT"s factory that we previously toured. You can actually see some of the machines responsible for this process in our video tour of the Shenzhen-based God Speed Casing factory. This is a one-off punch done by the factory team, but could be tooled-up for mass production if the Snowblind ends up as an actual product.

One of the most esoteric elements to CES this year was in the iBuyPower booth. iBuyPower is a system integrator rather than a components manufacturer, so it comes across as surprising when they have an ultimate hardware exclusive, and their Project Snowblind is it. Last year at CES iBP demonstrated the Snowblind concept: using a transparent LCD panel on the side of a PC case as a window into seeing the components, but also with the ability to run a set of moving images and video while the machine is on. It is the ultimate RGB add-on. For 2018, the latest version was on display.
iBP only provides this feature on its Snowblind systems, rather than as an individual add-on. The reason is that the Snowblind system is so-called because it focuses on white components, and adds in the high-power white LEDs around the edge of the transparent display in order to actually see the LCD screen. Without this in place, it would almost be unreadable, hence the limitation of its availability. When discussing with iBP, the full overall cost of the feature does add around $150-$200 to the system.
One of the key points that got me here was around how the chassis industry has evolved over the last 10-20 years. We have had features such as dual-chamber designs, tool-less design, mini-ITX through massive tower systems, tempered glass, and the glut of recent RGB that can be perceived as a vomit disco. How many truly innovative elements to the chassis industry has there been in that time? In Win is usually a good call for cases that open themselves, but these tend to be limited in scope. So it amazes me when it falls to a system integrator to come up with something so entirely different. It’s also fun to look at.
iBuyPower currently offers Snowblind under its Signature PC series, with Snowblind, Snowblind Pro and Snowblind Extreme versions. All systems use Intel Coffee Lake 8th Gen K-series processors, and NVIDIA graphics cards. For any GPU that doesn’t already have an appropriate backplate, iBP creates one to help with the lighting.
