The Observatory by Kolink with a side window and transparent front panel. With the 4 pre-installed RGB fans, it provides sufficient cooling on its own. It supports ATX, Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX, and E-ATX motherboards (up to 279mm width).
Specifications are collected from official manufacturer websites. Please verify the specifications before proceeding with your final purchase. If you notice any problem you can report it here.
Bad airflow and if you remove the front window for better airflow, you will have a problem with dust. Otherwise, it's fine
I have had the box for almost two years, it hasn't presented any problems, I am super satisfied, it is quite spacious, beautiful, worth its money, very good and sturdy construction, I highly recommend it
It is quite good both in appearance and in quality, but the minimized airflow causes a lot of issues while I play and I ended up completely removing the front window...
Beautiful case, spacious, high quality. It is not the quietest and the airflow is so-so, especially if you have a Ryzen 5 5600x or something more powerful, you need liquid cooling because otherwise you will see temperatures of 90+. It has dust filters everywhere, which is another reason why the airflow is not so good. As you can see in my photos, I removed the front fan and placed it on top to facilitate the escape of hot air. Overall, a very good case and it is perfect for someone who is building their first computer. Finally, cable management is very easy as it has plenty of space in the back and bottom to hide the cables.
Edit: The 240 liquid cooler (Aorus Waterforce 240) does not fit in the top part of the case by half an inch!!!
In my case, the build was with a plain 5600G without a graphics card, so I didn't have many objections since the customer specifically wanted this case. Unfortunately, this is the only case where I might recommend it.
For HDD installation, one side goes in smoothly and the other is screw-mounted. Of course, it's not something that will take up much of your time. However, there are plenty of slots for 2.5" drives. The PCI brackets are integrated into the case and not screw-mounted, which means that once you break them to fit, for example, a GPU, they become useless, with all that implies.
The fan speed is permanently set at 100% and they only connect to the available controller. There is no connection to the motherboard anywhere, nor for RGB. Lighting control is only done with the button on the case or with the provided remote control. It has many available modes though. Fortunately, the fans don't make much noise, if there isn't relative silence, they're not very audible.
The lack of airflow is a serious problem. It reminded me of the bequiet pure series. Without the front glass, the CPU temperature dropped by 6 degrees.
If you want good build quality and mainly appearance at a decent price (not over €80), it's an okay option. Would I use it again in a build? Definitely not, in the price range of 80-100, there are much more worthy cases (and with RGB).
Beautiful box, I haven't experienced any issues with temperatures or fan noise so far. I believe it's worth the money
I have it since August and it's really beautiful. The only thing that bothers me is that the fans make quite a bit of noise. It's overall a very good case and quality
Beautiful, high-quality, and possibly the best company in terms of service... professionals. It's worth the money, you won't regret it.
I gave it a 4 out of 5 because the only downside it has is the cable management. Amazing case, awesome lighting, I sit and admire it. It's so beautiful. It's worth every penny of its 100% and it's very sturdy.
I write more reviews to give advice to those who have it and to those who are thinking of buying it.
Initially, my own case "hosts" an MSI B450 Tomahawk Max, a Ryzen 5 3600, an Asus GTX 1660 Super OC rog strix, 16gb Ram, 1 SSD nvme, and 1 HDD. On top of the processor, the Arctic eSport 34 Duo with Arctic's mx-4 paste has been placed.
For build quality and specs, countless reviews here or on foreign forums cover it.
I will talk about airflow and temperatures. With the 4 pre-installed fans + the cooler, temperature values ranged from 35-45c at idle. However, the case generally heats up during heavy gaming, due to the insufficient airflow caused by the front glass.
I have read below that there are no Kolink fans available to add or replace. So, I sent an email to Kolink on 28/12 and asked them where one can find their fans to purchase. To cut it short, today I received 3 fans that they sent me completely free of charge, after I first sent them the purchase receipt. One of them was placed above the cooler and already in today's measurements, the processor ranges from 29(!)-38c at idle.
In summary, it is a good case for its price, but with a few more euros, one can get something much better and not go through the process of sending emails, etc. to find fans to cover the case's manufacturing inadequacy.
P.S.: Those of you who already have it and are within the warranty period (2 years) can send them an email ([email protected] with the subject Sales) and request as many fans as you need. I hope I helped!
Quite good I have to say, both in terms of beauty and construction, of course it's not the most perfect box but for its price it's worth a lot
First of all, let me mention that for its price, it is an incredibly value for money product. It comes with 4 RGB fans, which are quite silent, I would say... Now, the basics. Average airflow (I wouldn't choose it for a PC that is solely for gaming and for long hours). It was built with a 3800x stock cooler and a Gigabyte RTX3060Ti. With the 4 fans that the PC had, it was overheating... Really. The GPU reached 80 degrees and overall, you could tell that the PC was very hot from the tempered glass, which was really hot after an hour of gaming. And that's how we got to the result in the photo... We shared another case with two other people and ended up with 6 identical fans, while one person put their 6 fans in the remaining case. Now I can say that something happened. In the photo, you can see my computer with a GTX1060 G1 Gaming 3GB and a Ryzen 2700x, both at stock speeds. In heavy gaming, it doesn't heat up as much because the airflow is very good with the 3 intake and 3 exhaust fans... But still, for gaming for many hours, you can tell that the case retains hot air inside. Definitely, if you put more powerful fans, you will have much better results. Now, two more negatives that I noticed were that in order to find the same fans, you have to, as I mentioned above, either buy another case or find someone who doesn't want them. Now, regarding their speed, I found only one way to increase it. I took the RGB box from the second case, connected it to a different molex than the old one, and put 3+3 fans separately... The second negative is that it doesn't have much space for cable management at the back... A very negative thing for me personally, who wants everything to be neat. Overall, for 90 euros, it's fine!
Edit: 5/9/2022
The case has served me well throughout the summer... I got a white power supply, changed the fans on the cooler to white ones, and now it looks beautiful... And a tip if you have an air compressor or compressed air: REMOVE the front glass completely and keep it somewhere safe along with the screws... It makes a huge difference in temperatures... The PC has changed dramatically in terms of temperatures and dust!
I have it for about 3 months and I can say it is a great value for money. It does its job incredibly well and so far I haven't encountered any problems. It is in excellent condition. I highly recommend it!
I have it since April 10, 2021 when I finally set up my PC. The person who was assembling it complained that some cables were obstructing the placement of the motherboard and had to remove and reinstall the motherboard three times. This was bad and scared me at first, but then everything went well and when we saw the final result, how beautiful it was... I recommend it 10000000%
It's simply wonderful and beautiful box! It has great air flow and cable management, and I fell in love with the white design! My only complaint is the fan hub, which seemed cheaply made, and I had to search for a long time to connect the fans because there was no manual apart from the cheap hub. It's still great!

Cable Management Support: Basic, some cable ties. No channels for cables on the back and limited space behind the motherboard (18mm).
System Installation Ease: Although space is not abundant, it is not difficult to install the motherboard and other components. You just need to remove the necessary PCIe covers before installing the motherboard, otherwise you won't be able to later and will have to remove it. Installing SSDs is easy, but the same cannot be said for hard drives. It is best to install the latter before installing the power supply! The holes for routing cables are quite large, but they are not covered with plastic grommets, so the cables will be visible on the back of the case and the result won't be as aesthetically pleasing. Lastly, the cutout behind the CPU socket is large, so you won't have any issues with installing CPU coolers.
Noise Dampening: Moderate because the case has thin panels and there is no material for noise dampening inside. At this price, however, I didn't expect anything like that.
What really bothers me though is that there is no fan speed control, and the fans run constantly at 1300 RPM with an operating noise of 33.8 dBA at one meter distance. If you want to build a quiet system, I would not recommend this case at all.
Thermal Performance: I did not bother to take thermal performance measurements for the following reasons. It is a low-cost case that focuses not on performance but on appearance. The glass on the front may look nice, but it literally kills the airflow of the front fans, as they cannot pull in enough air. So if I put a load inside this case, the most likely outcome is that I will burn my expensive thermal loader.
Conclusion
My observations for this budget yet stylish case are as follows:
• Poor airflow from the front fans because they are stuck to the glass. For better performance, you will need to remove the front glass.
• The placement of hard drives could have been much easier if there were removable trays.
• There are no covers on the cable routing holes for a neater appearance.
• 18mm gap, quite small, at the back of the motherboard and 24mm on the side of the power supply.
• If you don't connect the fans in the corresponding ports on the RGB controller, they won't work properly. Additionally, the fans have incompatible connectors, so if the RGB controller or any of the fans break, good luck finding compatible components. This is a major drawback. They should have used conventional connectors, 3-pin or 4-pin.
• The fans run at full speed constantly, without any ability to control their RPM. Thankfully, they are low-speed fans, but the lack of fan speed control reminds me of past decades.
• There is no instruction manual included in the packaging, you will have to download it from the Kolink website. You can also find an online manual for installing the fan/RGB controller.
• Removable, magnetic dust filters on the top. There is also one on the bottom, in the position of the power supply.
• It can accommodate up to two 3.5" drives and five 2.5" drives.
• The top of the power supply cover does not have any openings, so you should not use a passive PSU. Also, if you install a semi-passive PSU, it is advisable not to have the fan facing upwards, as it will release the temperature inside the PSU compartment and increase the overall temperature of the case.
• The distance from the top of the motherboard, where the VRMs are usually located, to the top of the case is small (25mm), so it will be difficult to fit 140mm fans.
• Maximum graphics card length is 380mm and maximum CPU cooler height is 160mm, so it will not accommodate bulky coolers or large graphics cards. Again, this case is not designed for power-hungry hardware.
• The I/O panel has multiple ports and all the necessary switches (Power, Reset, RGB).
• It can fit a 280mm radiator in the front and a 240mm radiator on the top. If you want to install liquid cooling in this case, avoid the front part at all costs.
• The positive aspects include the good price considering that you get a visually appealing case with a glass side panel, four RGB fans, an RGB controller, and a wireless controller.
In general, this is a case that is aimed at users who prioritize appearance over performance. Do not buy it if you plan to combine it with very power-hungry hardware, as it is likely that everything inside will overheat. Another thing you can do for better performance is to completely remove the front glass and increase the airflow towards the trio of fans. However, there is no front dust filter, so you will have to clean the system regularly. For 78 euros, it's not bad considering that it includes 4 fans, but compromises have been made in many areas to achieve this price.

Aesthetically it rocks. Installed with 3x RGB fans that you control with a remote - color - intensity of operation, etc. Good airflow, I have the i5 10400 with Coolermaster Cpu cooling and it doesn't go above 70 degrees full load. It doesn't have a front USB-C input, the only negative, even though it was mentioned in the description. In any case, I believe it's worth it. I sit and stare at it for hours.
Beautiful box with plenty of space, sturdy and with good airflow. If two fans are added to the top, it will be perfect, I believe I haven't installed them yet...
For the money it asks, it gives a lot of things!
Very good economical box, quite silent, very beautiful, but the only negative is that when it is in standby mode, the blue light flashes, which can light up 20 houses, and also the type c port is just a useless piece with the shape of type c that doesn't connect anywhere (at least in mine, I want to believe)
Very good case with perfect air flow and RGB, of course I believe that its price is a little higher than it should be but it's okay. Also, the noise is very minimal, it will bother only a few. Anyway, I am very satisfied with this case!
Don't even think about it. Take it!
Ample space, high-quality materials and paint. Multiple RGB settings via remote control. Many SSD slots, but few for HDD. With Tempered Glass, not Plexiglass, and 4 high-quality fans.
WHATEVER BEST one can find for this money. The cable management was a piece of cake. It has all the necessary screws and brackets inside. The space it provides for cable management at the back is perfect. It comes with 4 fans right off the bat, so it maintains a stable and good airflow. Its RGB, which some people fear makes it tacky, makes it even nicer... it has a controller that connects via SATA from your power supply and is fully adjustable.
I have had the box for a year now and it is very good in all aspects for its price.
The only remarks are about the cable management at the back, which is not particularly spacious, and the airflow due to the front glass. When the glass is removed, the temperature of the CPU and GPU drops by 10 degrees. Lastly, the radiator can only be installed in the front and not on top because it interferes with the RAM. But let's be honest, if you're not building a PC for professional use or gaming, these details won't be a problem for you.
Epic box, perfect in every way.
I changed the color from white to black with 4 different pearls and it skyrocketed, especially when the RGBs burst inside.
It was worth every penny! Cable management is easily done with love and imagination, it didn't give me any trouble at all!
As for the air flow, it's perfect with two fans on the ceiling!
Personally, I'm not bothered by the noise, it's fine!

Limited solutions for water cooling and nonexistent airflow. It's not a coincidence that it's SO much cheaper than Corsair... obviously, the manufacturers didn't even bother to buy the original in order to copy it correctly. Every system suffers inside there. I have already replaced it with a decent one. Cheapness ultimately eats away at quality.
Wow, how triggered it has become... I don't blame people when they don't know though. Do you think that 88°C on the graphics card is a normal temperature...
Beautiful!
Very high quality!
Good cable management (I am a beginner in PC building, and it seemed very easy to organize the cables, etc. exactly as I wanted)
As for the airflow, the CPU and GPU temperatures are the same as my previous conventional case.
The RGB lighting is fantastic, with many colors and modes. The only downside is that there is no way to connect them to the motherboard (I asked the official Kolink support).
Despite the 4 pre-installed fans, I don't consider the case noisy (I have the case on my desk right next to my ear!!)
I can't judge the dust filtering because I have had the case for about a month.
Very beautiful box, good value for money but needs a little help with airflow... 2 ceiling fans might help the situation!
I got the case knowing the problem with the airflow it has in the front. I fixed it by placing 4 m3 standoffs on the front glass. The cable management is not good, but if you try, it's fine. Without these 2 problems, the case is fine. If you DO NOT plan to mod the case for airflow, then don't get it.
