Beautiful Overall Build Quality - but buy separate motherboard screws and standoffs !!!
First Impressions:Stunning and unique - Super excited to get my build in here! Tempered glass all around and a solid aluminum/steel frame. Very little play whatsoever, seems very high quality.Comes with a free RGB fan up top, not bad but I replaced it with an all-Corsair setup so I could use iCUE for everything.Modern case - comes with 2 USB 3.0's and 1 USB C up front. Power button only, no reset.Large cut outs on all sides of the glass, especially on the back. Not worried about case temps at all, even with only 4 total fans.This thing is heavy!! Fully loaded I think it is around 50 pounds or more.Actually Building in it:Overall: it's a bit awkward because, AFAIK, the plate on which the motherboard sits cannot be removed. There is an additional bottom plate under that where the PSU goes, so routing cables is a bit of playing Twister.The Screws: The removable screws and standoffs that come with the case are trash. If I was doing this over, I would toss all the removable screws for the PSU and Motherboard, measure them, and buy the appropriate replacements made of steel, or at the very least, something from a kit. I think the default screws and standoffs are made of very cheap aluminum, leading to one of the PSU screws snapping off. Luckily, the PSU still fits securely with 3/4 installed.The Mobo standoffs and screws would not screw in flush, leading to play in the board. I replaced them with these from Microcenter, and now my board sits perfectly secure and the screws are flush all around.AIO Compatibility: The radiator HAS to be bottom mounted in this. If you care about the pump not being at the highest point of the loop, AFAIK, you only have two options: The Be Quiet! Pure Loop and the MSI Mag series, since these have pumps that are not in the CPU block.I used an MSI Mag Coreliquid 360mm. It just barely fits, but doesn't sit perfectly straight because the hoses come into contact with the aluminum plate on which the mobo sits. YMMV depending on the hose pacement on your particular radiator, but this is something to keep in mind and make sure. I can imagine a scenario where, depending on the hose placement, a 360mm rad simply won't fit.Cable Management: This is a treat (sarcastic) because there isn't much of a gap between the PSU and the front panel, leading to very little cable management space.To give you an idea, imagine the size of the typical PSU. That's the volume of space you have for cable management by default design.At first, the fit was super tight because the front panel cables are irrationally long and take up too much precious & scarce cable management space if not bundled properly (They are not bundled properly from Azza). After zip-tying them together, I had more working room.There is a large section on the left, opposite the spot for the radiator, which can house HDD/SSD's. I removed these, since I'm using two M.2's, and I was able to stuff excess cable length there. As you can see below, it's a bit of rat's nest there. Bear this in mind if you want it to look nice and cable-managed. That section is visible, since it's glass all-around, so my plan is to get two pieces of wood and stain them black to block view of this area.r/pcmasterrace - Azza 804-V Pyramid Mid-ATX Case Review & BuildUsing an all-Corsair fan set up helped, since all cables could be routed to the Commander Pro. Would definitely recommend some kind of hub to minimize mess.Using M.2's definitely helped to reduce the number of cables needed, as well. As mentioned, this freed-up space for stuffing cable excess.Would not want to imagine using a PSU that isn't fully modular.Conclusion & Performance: No regrets because I really like the design of the case. It's a bit of pain because of the lack of cable management space, but I got around that by not using an SATA SSD's or HDD's. No issues with case temps, since it's so open. GPU and CPU seem to have no issue keep temps down, even with the the fans I chose to use on the radiator.

Full Breakdown Review
The media could not be loaded. Overall: 8/10-Absolutely love how this build turned out. Few snags here or there in the build process, but overall I'm very happy with this purchase.Sturdiness: 10/10-Very solid case. Nothing felt loose or cheaply manufactured. Sturdy.Astethic: 10/10-Unique design, eye catching, sleek look. Beautiful looking overall.Airflow: 7/10-Only supports up to 120mm fans. One mounted on the top blowing up, and three on the bottom (not included). Bottom fans have to either push or pull the air around the bottom plate. Only mounts on one side. Not an issue with water cooling. Radiator mounts nice (up to 360mm, does not support 280 due to the 120mm width restriction) Slots around all 4 corners allow the air to move nicely.Ease of build: 4/10-Small tight spaces underneath to fit radiator/fans. Have to finesse the way you place things under the main plate to hide components. Feeding cables can be tough with larger hands due to small spaces to slot the wires through. Depending on your build you have to get creative with how you place tubes or wiring. Top fan allows a 120mm radiator to be mounted which was a nice surprise. Larger PSU cables will take some finesse. Read description carefully as my GPU was 297mm stock and it claims it can fit 300mm. The glass would not fit on with my GPU without adding water cooling to cut the size down. The motherboard lying flat on the bottom does make it very nice to place pins, seat components, etc. The cable management potential with this case is very nice. My personal cable management skills could use some work but it turned out nice overall.Hope this helps! I bought this impulsively and don't regret it one bit. Ran it without the glass on for two days while waiting for a few components to come in and it ran nicely. Temps didn't change much with the glass on which was a nice surprise. Definitely a great addition to my setup.**This review is not sponsored and I paid full price for this unit.
