DarkFlash DRX70 - A Solid Choice!
This darkFlash ATX case is fantastic for the price! The included RGB fans look great and provide solid airflow. I love the magnetic front panel for easy cleaning. The tempered glass side panel shows off my build nicely. All around, a great case that doesn't break the bank.

Very spacious
This is very nice case, it has plenty of space to build a decent setup. Good airflow and nice RGB lighting. The exterior I design is sleek and modern , nothing over the top but good enough.

Nice case with a lot of room - best suited to new builds!
I'll skip the details that can be obtained from the advertising, and restrict my comments to my impression of the target audience for this case, and in my experience in putting a system together with it.This is a MODERN case design and style. I bought a 'name brand' case a couple of months ago to build a completely new, 2024 machine, and this case is nearly identical to it in virtually every way. This includes the top-mounted front panel containing only one each of USB-2 and USB-3 ports, which has been mentioned by a couple of reviewers who transplanted their older motherboards into this one. Times have changed, as have case designs and the included accommodations for older hardware.Nobody's yet mentioned that there's no card cage for 3-1/2” hard drives or 5-1/4" CD/DVD/Blu-ray optical drives. I still use them, but they're becoming scarce on newer computers, and case layouts have evolved to reflect this reality.I got this case to house an older, yet still very capable maxed-out machine, and ran into the same obstacles that others have mentioned. The computer I'm re-homing had two add-in interfaces on the front panel: one with extra USB-2 ports that fit into a floppy drive bay, and a 4-port USB-3 interface that occupied one of the 3-1/2" hard drive bays. These simply can't be used with the new case because there's no card cage. That's not a deficiency, that's just modernity flexing its muscles. I'll have to come up with an alternative plan, such as using an external USB hub, or one an expansion card that uses a PCIe-X1 slot. I have a couple of cards lying around that would work.I echo the comments about the front-mounted RGB fans, in that they're designed to be illuminated all the time as they’re driven by a 12V power supply MOLEX connection, not a separate RGB controller. (My name brand case has a controller and I can turn them off on that computer...) They don't bother me though, so it's not a big deal.I didn't have any particular problem with assembly — all the holes were in the proper positions, and the hardware fit correctly. I repurposed the 140mm fan from a dead power supply for the rear panel, rather than using a 120mm fan. And I also added two 120mm fans on the bottom above the power supply, and on the top inside, which is designed for an AOI radiator or a couple of fans. I also replaced my OEM (small!) AMD CUP fan/heatsink with a much larger cooler, with lots of room to spare, which brings up another issue not yet mentioned: this case is wider than mid-towers of the past. It's easily 1" wider than all the others I own or have owned. So if you have space on your desk that just barely accommodates a typical mid-tower of yesteryear, you might want to measure to make sure it will fit.The advantage of having the extra space is that most of the interconnecting wires and cables are behind the backplane, making for an attractive, neat-looking appearance from the side with the tempered glass side cover. It's all hidden beneath the solid side cover on the opposite side of the case. There are several wire ties provided, as well as anchor points to make a bit less of a jumble of the wiring. Or you can just stuff 'em in there and put the panel on, like I mostly did...A GPU support bracket is pre-installed, but it can only be adjusted vertically. There are no mounting holes in the backplane to move it laterally away from the front panel, if you don't have a newer, very long GPU. The two-fan GPU on this transplant is only about 9" long, and it doesn't come anywhere near being able to use the GPU support. It would probably take a GPU 12" or 13" long to reach it.As one reviewer mentioned, there's some accommodation for additional storage using 3-1/2" and 2-1/2" drives situated in a removable compartment under the floor and next to the power supply. The manual shows a couple of unimaginative configurations, and I came up with one of my own: one SSD fits on top and two more are mounted in a 2-1/2" to 3-1/2" adapter that was used in my machine before the move. Whereas the manual only shows a two 3-1/2" hard drives, or a 3-1/2" hard drive and a 2-1/2" SSD, I was able to fit 3 SSDs into this space.The three supplied fans are quiet, and run at a fixed speed. Mine's now tricked out with 11 fans, total - including the 2 on the GPU and one on the CPU. And they all run at a reasonably low level — it's not the leaf-blower I expected!I'd rate this as a mid-level gaming case, and a pretty decent value at its price point. It's opened my eyes to how mired in older technologies I've become, and it's time to adapt and move forward with more modern hardware!5 stars, and 2 thumbs-up for now. If things change, I always update my reviews to reflect pros or cons that happen along the way.

Solid specs for the price, but with a few unfortunate choices.
I tested this case out with a pretty simple build based around a 10 year old motherboard, the MSI H81M-P33, and an i5-4460 using the stock cooler. As a rather small Micro-ATX board, barely larger than ITX, it's far smaller than what this case can support. Installation was straightforward and problem-free. I do appreciate that there are some pre-installed standoffs which most boards will use, but also many positions to add more depending on which additional screw positions your board has.In addition to the board itself, I installed an also relatively small single-slot AMD Radeon WX5100 graphics card and a standard 2.5" SATA SSD. The GPU support screw holes are tapped for standard case screws, but fit a little tight (maybe because of paint?) so you may need to use a bit of extra force to get the screws to catch. It is a little disappointing that there is only one place for a 2.5" SSD to mount, but considering how the M.2 NVMe standard has taken over that's probably not an issue for many people.More disappointing was the three RGB fans using hard drive connectors instead of standard 4-pin fan connectors. While the fans work OK and are reasonably quiet, this choice takes away any ability to monitor their speed or control it. You'll probably notice if one fails considering where they're located, but it would still be nice to have this basic functionality that most cheap aftermarket fans provide. While I can see not making the RGB lighting controllable for cost purposes, this seems like a step too far for me at least. I would have been happier if they left off the cost of the fans and didn't install ones which I feel like I will end up replacing anyway.The other substantial disappointment is the choice to have one USB 2.0 port and one USB 3.0 port, using a full 2-port header each. For most boards it will be no problem to connect both, but - why would you not just put two USB 3.0 ports? There's no way it saves a substantial amount of money to do one of each here, and if you're really concerned about boards that don't support 3.0 (rare these days, as it has been common for around a decade) then it absolutely works to just put connectors for both types of header on the other end and let the user choose which to plug in. My motherboard only had two 2.0 headers and I needed to plug in a wireless card as well, so I ended up having to re-do the connectors to combine the wireless card + 2.0 port in order to be able to plug in both. This might seem like a minor issue, but there's just no good reason to have to deal with it.Anyway, with all of it together the system is running well and air seems to be moving through steadily. I have to admit that this is not a bad bill of materials for $80, and if all you care about is having a lot of space for a large graphics card to run games then it should do an alright job. However, I feel like this is a competitive enough field that you can find comparably priced and featured cases which don't make the same compromises, and I feel like these particular compromises are hard to justify.
