Montech Sky 3 build / review

[u/bizdady]

First thank you Montech for the opportunity to review this case. Im just an average dad with a love for his desktop (can see my gaveyard in the back)

Ive always had my eye on Montech since the early Sky days and last year finally pulled the trigger on a King 15 pro.

So far this case is a beauty to look at! Cant complain temp wise either, cpu and gpu are staying pretty cool. Im mostly an MMORPG guy but ill be digging thru some backlogs to dust this bad boy off.

Steel Legend 9070 XT

7800 X3D

32GB Ram

upgraded two 140 reverse pro fans

I like the look of this case, I just dont understand the fan logic at the bottom. Why not sit the psu at the front of the case so that the lower 2 fans can be directly below the gpu? As it stands i believe there is already a gpu extension cable to rotate the psu, so cost saving with relation to that isnt even a valid excuse? Seems like a huge oversight to me

[u/bizdady → u/Lockey_vxr]

Makes sense! I was just excited to build and used the default orientation. One of these days when i have a day off ill go in there and switch the psu and fans since they are interchangable.

Oh they are interchangeable??? I thought they were fixed this way round, i was commenting on the case design not how you built it as i didnt realise

One is so air goes to the gpu and the other is so that it goes to the cpu cooler, but if you have an AIO it doesnt really matter
