the $69 case market is loaded with great options maybe $69 is just a great position for both the case manufacturer who doesn't have to worry about choking their profits and the customer who gets everything they need at the same time maybe it's just a good place to be when you want a satisfying experience for everyone so come with me let's see what this case at this price point has to offer and what I'm going to offer to it Tunnel Bear is the simple VPN app that makes it easy to browse privately and enjoy a more open Internet to try total bear for free check out the link in the video description starting with the front of the Red Line oh five there are two plastic cutout tabs that function as buttons for both power and reset on the left hand side these tabs have a decent if rather stiff tactile feel on the right hand side we have dual USB 3 ports and both headphone and microphone jacks then we come to the PS tent of resistance the killer feature at this price point the USB type-c connector at the top of the case Wow such beauty you can stick your cable in either way I can't wait before we move on note that the case does come with red accents like the name would imply but I went with black on black because that's more my thing and there are a couple more things to note here at the front once you remove the front bezel you can see the USB cables for both the type-c connector and the type-a front connectors are permanently attached to the front but having one of them at the top and one of them at the side makes it so that once you've managed all of your cables the front panel gets a little hard to remove which wouldn't matter except that unless you take it off you can't access the included and poorly mounted fan filter I get it it's better for the USB signal for them not to be removable but I still think there's room for improvement here okay I'm sorry I swear this doesn't normally happen but I seem to have started a little bit prematurely and forgotten the case the left panel has a large window cutout to reveal all of your glorious components for the world to see and the right side panel is just plain old metal moving on to the bottom of the case you have another fan filter this one easier to access under the power supply just behind the stamped on spray stencil made in China logo good thing that's on the bottom which brings us to the top of the case do you see the problems here there are actually two main ones one of them is the positioning of the ventilation aesthetically it's pleasing because it goes right down the middle of the top but functionally it's a little frustrating because it goes right over the top your motherboard this makes the installation of 140 millimeter fans more difficult than it needs to be and it also makes the installation of a radiator essentially impossible let's go back to the 140 millimeter fan thing for a moment though say you wanted to water cool you bought a dual 120 or 140 millimeter fan AIO liquid cooler and put it in the front of the case instead of the top not a big deal well I don't personally prefer this approach there are plenty of cases out there where this is the most optimal position what now frustrates me is the spare 140 milsim burst own fans that are left over where you put them they don't fit in the back of the case so the top I mean kinda the fan filter up top is mounted through the 140 millimeter mounting holes already you can make this work rather well by just mounting each fan with three screws instead of four but that makes cleaning the filter a little annoying this also could have been done better let's move on to what I think is the strongest aspect of the RL of five the interior the main compartment of the case rocks a great-looking basement cover to SSD mounting points on top of the basement cover although only one of them has a convenient cable cutout rendering the leftmost one a little bit more difficult to wire up cleanly looking upwards from here I really like what they did with the cable management on the right side of the motherboard this cable cover looks better in my opinion than the bunch of floppy rubber grommet cutout holes that have been present in every case since the 800 D that being said I wouldn't have minded the affer mentioned floppy rubber grommets for the cable management hole up top or the header and SSD connections down at the bottom moving to the back of the motherboard tray there is a well sized and correctly placed CPU mounting cutout two more spots for mounting SSDs although it must be noted that for the four possible SSD positions there are only two included trays which to be fair is just as much or more than most people who will buy a $69.00 case will probably need then below that there are two hard drive bays and the power supply that sits up on some foam feet to get elevated from the floor and this is important I know Linus has personal he suffocated a power supply with the fan facing downward on a carpeted floor tragic which leads us to the bottom line the RL of five is a very solid case with tons of features to boot at a rather aggressive price point but one that doesn't enjoy the luxury of existing in a vacuum one fierce competitor also at $69 is the fantex Eclipse P 400 it comes with a magnetic external fan filter at the top rail mounted fan filters elsewhere a proper easy to remove front panel and an RGB light controller to name a few features a USB type-c connector is pretty sweet though so which $69 building experience do you think will be a more pleasurable one
