Conclusion and Verdict
So ventilation isn’t an issue with this case. As you can see from all the pictures each panel is free from any airflow restriction. The most restriction is basically from the dust filters. I only used the fans on the AIO as a pull and the PSU was providing the exhaust. You do have the option to add more fans on the front panel but keep in mind your graphics card will take up some of the space. This will only become an issue if your card is triple slot. Also worth a mention is the spot on the top for an additional 80mm fan. As far as temps go I was using an i5 8600K. That isn’t a hot chip for todays standards. At the highest temp we saw a max of 46 degrees Celsius. This was with the Cougar Aqua ARGB 240. I figured since the Pre-installed was a cougar, why not stay with that theme. The lights shined through panels quite well and if I had more to load the front this case would have even lit up the room even more.
So if you go with out the power supply this case will set you back about 129.00 dollars. If you opt for the power supply it will be about 249.00 dollars. Plus you don’t have to worry about finding one that is in stock or if it has sufficient cable length. The more pre-installed components I can get the better in my opinion. iBUYPOWER has a lot more to offer than just this too by the way. They offer full system builds that can be spec’d out to your hearts content.
The Hyte Revolt 3 ITX Case with a 700W PSU can be found on Hyte as well as various other e-tailers for around $249.99. You can check out the iBUYPOWER website for more details.
