Final Thoughts
After spending some time and building in the Meshify C there is a lot to like and this is case lends itself to a certain type of builder. Someone who is not going to go super-overboard with their build, who is not going to install a larger enthusiast motherboard and someone who isn’t going to be installing a ton of water cooling.
You can do a pretty awesome build in this case and the best part about it is unlike many new cases we’ve seen this case has proper ventilation, especially in the front mesh section of the case. Not only does the newly designed mesh section look cool and unique it provides airflow into the case. There are two fans included with the case which do provide good airflow, but adding a few more definitely improves things.
We really had no issues with installation at all, except for the fact that our larger AORUS Z270X-Gaming 9 motherboard would not fit in the case. This is an over-sized ATX motherboard, so just keep that in mind. Installation is really straight-forward and went quite smoothly.
Tempered glass is of course the new thing and looks great on any case, but I do have to say the tempered glass on the Meshify C is pretty dark. You can see why soon after the release of the Meshify C Fractal Design released a version with a more clear tempered glass panel.
With a smaller profile than most cases, good airflow, and a tempered glass side panel the Meshify C is a great choice for any builder. Right now it is selling online $89.99, which we feel is a good value for what you are getting. Overall ThinkComputers gives the Fractal Design Meshify C a 9 out of 10 score.
Pros:
– Good overall airflow
– Easy installation
– Price
– Smaller than most ATX cases
Cons:
– Oversized ATX motherboards will not fit
– Tempered glass panel is pretty dark
