Circle Gaming Cabinet CC 821 without SMPS (with 3 LED FAN)

This cabinet is amazing. Came with three red led fans, two in front and one in back. I swapped all with my bbc blue ring led fans and using two of the three red led fans as top exhaust fans.Cabinet has ample space inside. All my components are fitting perfectly inside and there is enough space for cable management too. You just need to figure out the way for proper cable management on the right side of the case.I removed all the unwanted materials like extra hdd trays and odd drive tray for better airflow.Airflow is very impressive since front is all mesh material and two fans sit right back of it. This air is pushed onto the components inside and top mounted fans as well as back fan pull the warm air out. My cpu, gpu and even hdd and ssd drives each now run at least 5-8 degrees cooler.Case came with lots of screws amd mounts, I can use them for 4-5 other builds too.Perfect gaming cabinet for me, very happy with the purchase.

Included all the pics for the cabinet both open and closed. Fully disassembled this and it is a feast to play with this thing. It has got everything you could ask for. Comes with 3 LED (red) fans, 1 at back and 2 front intake. transparent side Panel. Pretty good cut outs for Mobo placements and wire movements. Front panel has mesh and can be easily cleared. Come with a magnetic dust cover for two upper fans.Large enough to do work without constraints.This one has combined the ssd and hdd brackets into one, which is awesome as very few people need more than 4 drives. I am using a SSD with 4 scews used to hold it in place. It has also got a bottom PSU filter (detachable). Most of this cabinet can be disassembled and reassembled really easily.It also comes with extra screws and zipties, SATA cable (can't remember if it came with MOBO or this thing). Got pretty long wires for front connectors and hey it comes with a good old fashioned beep-beep speaker. Even the HDD/SSD drive bays are also detachable. Long enough for a 2 fan GPU (maybe 3FAN?). Got enough space for AIO liquid cooling also.Excellent airflow. I am currently using only 1 intake and 1 back output fan. Using a R3 2200G, and even under heavy load it rarely touches 70C, that too on silent fan curve. I am using a mATX board and it has enough space and excellent placements for screws. Also it comes with ryzer screws for the MOBO.Its looks awesome in night with LED fans and looks great from side window. The fans also run silent even at full speed. You have to be within 3cm of them to hear them working.Cons - Four major problems I found are.1) The front panel comes off but it is very tight and takes considerable pressure to remove it, sometimes I fear it will break if used excessively.2) DVD drive bays are not removable or detachable. They are welded/permanently glued to the cabinet unlike the HDD/SSD bays which are having screws to remove it. (Who uses DVD nowadays?)3) There is very little room to wiggle around in the top portion for the top fans as after installing a MOBO, it is very difficult to reach that place without removing the CPU fan.4) Also I can't change the positions of my front intake fans to top output fans as they dont't have matching screws. The top one uses short screws but the front one uses long screws.Overall a great product for 1st time and pro builder alike whether you have a bare minimum build or a fully packed build, It has enough space. Only competitor is Corsair spec-04. But I would say go for this one. It is much more customizable than the other one.

I was looking to buy a gaming cabinet and I finally found this AMAZING cabinet in low cost!:) Firstly I would like to say that this cabinet is perfect for gaming and it also comes with a radiator slot on top for liquid cooling. (not specified in the description) The only problem is that the screws provided with the cabinet are made of cheap quality but that doesn't matter:) My request to Circle is that they should make the User Manual a little more elaborate because the manual provided by Circle is actually good for nothing. The cooling fans are cool and really keeps the interior COOL. A few days back I started playing COD Infinite Warfare and in the previous cabinet I only had 1 fan and it was too small. While playing COD Infinite Warfare the temperatures of my APU and GPU rose upto 58 and 72 degree Celsius respectively. But when I played the game using this cabinet the max temperatures of my APU and GPU rose upto 39 and 41 degrees Celsius respectively.;) I am really satisfied with this product and I recommend this to gamers who can't afford those EXPENSIVE cabinets. It's really cool and worth it!

Keeping it cool is the only reason we convince ourselves to buy a large cabinet. Well, it's the the only cabinet with 3 fans attached for this price. However, they are not effective. The front 2 fans hardly throw any air and top of that the HDD's grill is blocking that little air flow which hardly reaches half of cabinet space. Same goes with the single exhaust fan at rear, though it's connected to CPU for air flow, it does not throw enough hot air from the cabinet. I always have the habit of placing my hand on the rear fan vent to feel how hot my PC is running since I had Dell CPU, that small Dell exhaust fan threw 2 times more air than this.Solution:- replace the rear fan with cooler master or from old HP/Dell (definitely won't fit but it will do the job better, try some arrangements).Use only one fan from front grill as it will only consume extra power from you PSU though both are useless. Try to get it replaced with good air flow fan. I'm in search for the same, please let me know if you find any good fan.Spcs :-i5 4460HyperX 8 GB (after adding 4 GB)H81 gaming 3 mini atx1 TB Firecuda Solid State Hard drive ( upgraded)Corsair VS550 PSUGTX1060 3GB MSI, Dual fanTotal fans:- 7Deactivated fans:-1Update:- I see that the same model "CC821" now has become CC821 Prime with the fan added on top of the cabinet. Also the fans are now having Circle brand logo in red color.I have the older model so please ignore the above if you have the newer model.While playing Farcry 3 at Ultra setting, the GPU and CPU were gone upto 66- 72 degrees throughout so I just took an older cabinet 80 mm fan and connected directly to mobo's cabinet fan power out. It worked like a kitchen exhaust fan blowing out the heat extensively after that the temperature is below 55 C.
