If you are looking for a beautiful minimalist case this is for you!

Before buying this case I was unsure what to think about it because of little coverage aboutit on the internet (like youtube or reviews) so I'll attempt to go a little in-depth so that it is as helpful as can be. Don't let the lack of hype around this case on the internet fool you or you will pass by a great looking case.

Don't let the lack of hype around this case on the internet fool you or you will pass by a great looking case.

I love the minimalist design. The smoky tempered glass side panel is beautiful. What's even better is that you get tempered glass on the front. While the front panel is NOT see-through (it is plain black), just the fact that it has a tempered glass finish I think makes it look even more beautiful and sleek than plain black plastic or steel front panel as most cases are (even more expensive cases like the NZXT H510i/NZXT H710). I challenge you to find another case with a tempered glass front finish at this price point. It looks great, sleek and is not a case that takes up a lot of space compared to other mid-towers. I have a decent mid tower at work (Cooler Master MasterBox MB600L - this is a well reviewed and more expensive case but it is simply bigger dimension wise to the Gigabyte C200 and the side panel is only acrylic and not tempered glass) and the dimensions of this Gigabyte C200 case is a little smaller). You also get a subtle rgb RGB light on the front panel which is a nice sublte bonus. You can let it cycle colours or you can choose your own (of the small selection) via a button on the top.

I haven't done any deep tests on cooling but I have had no issues. If this is of particular concern for you I suspect you that you might have to look for another case that might have a mesh front panel. With the Gigabyte C200 you have minimal intake vents on the side of the front panel, however you do have the traditional top vents, rear vent and PSU vent. The top vent has a typical magnetic filter which a neat addition.

Cable management in the back side panel and in the PSU shroud is a little tight, but there is room and you can make it fit. I personally wouldn't want more room as I like the overall dimensions of the case and wouldn't the overall size bigger just for cable management room.

My only gripe is that it doesn't come with rubber grommets for the cutouts inside the case which I have seen in other photos.

The biggest win for this case is its value! I got it as one of the cheapest mid tower cases available and I challenge you to find another case at this price range with a side tempered glass panel and front tempered glass finish.

I often wondered why people call this simply a good entry level case. I think it's a beautiful case for more than just the beginner pc builder. At the moment I am finding little to no competition for cases with minimal sleek aesthetics all the way up to the $200 pricepoint easily. I think it's easy to look past this case because it is affordable but I like it way better than some grotesque more expensive designs that I can see will not stand the test of time.

I specifically was looking for a modern, cheap but good looking case that had a tempered glass side panel. In the end I ended up having to choose between this or the Phanteks P300/P300A (An incredibly well reviewed case and has a lot of info out there on Youtube especially compared to the Gigabyte C200). In the end I chose because they were similar in terms of their features, but the Gigabyte C200 simply looked better based on photos., After sitting with this case for a couple of months now I have absolutely no regrets. I think this case looks amazing and when I see P300 builds I think they look cheap (ones that you expect to see at internet cafes.)

To go one step further, the reason I am writing this review is that I cannot find a case to upgrade to that I like better. I am currently scoping out a better looking and more premium case (more expensive) as I am looking to build a new PC. I am really struggling to find such a case. The only thing I can find that compete with it is probably the NZXT H510 Elite because it has similar dimensions and I am sold on the tempered glass look, but its front tempered glass panel is see-through unlike this case which is not. However, at double the price I do not think the NZXT H510 Elite looks twice as good as this case. You are really only paying extra for the NZXT H510 Elite for the RGB fans included (It is pretty much a Gigabyte C200 with a clear front tempered glass panel and RGB fans).

To sum up, the Gigabyte C200 is an excellent case! I am totally sold on the minimalist look with straight lines, the tempered glass side panel and the tempered glass finish front panel. I am finding real difficulty finding anything wrong with it. It looks as good as it does in the photos. If you have even one RGB item such as just your CPU cooler I think your set up would look amazing already. I am finding it very hard to look for a more expensive case which actually looks better. Even though I am planning a higher spec PC build I might even just by this affordable case because it looks so good.

I purchased this case to house a mATX motherboard for my budget build. The case looks great with a subtle RGB light on the front. The RGB is connected to a molex connector and does not need a separate controller.

The power supply shroud is great, it hides the cables very well and gives the internals a clean look. I did not use a modular power supply and the end result looked clean. Well placed ports inside the case make cable management a breeze. The case comes with a 120mm fan and additional fans can be easily installed.

Well placed ports inside the case make cable management a breeze. The case comes with a 120mm fan and additional fans can be easily installed. The mesh at the top of the case is effective at catching dust and helping with airflow. I have installed an additional exhaust fan on the top of the case and I can feel the hot air being pumped out from the mesh. I'm using a Wraith spire for cooling and temps did not exceed 62c when the CPU was used at 100% for 5.5 hours with the two fans.

Access to the internals of the case is easy with screws that are attached by hand. Both sides of the case can be removed quickly when required. The glass side of the case looks good, make sure to have a micro fibre cloth on hand when removing the glass as fingerprints are very visible when case lighting is used in the PC.

Storage is good with space for SSD and HDDs, I did not need any additional mounting brackets to mount the drives (1 SSD and 2 HDD) and used the screws supplied with the case.

I would recommend this case for the price.

Great to fit my I5 machine into. Only problem with these days new cases they no longer have any 5.25” optical drive bays available. Looks like I'll have to go external and use USB.

Pretty dope case ngl
Tempered glass, a fair amount of room for cable management and room for up to six fans makes this case still pretty decent for even those with a higher budget
Kinda sucks that you can't put the brackets back on onc you remove them but if you really wanted you could just tape them back on
The RGB button can be a little sticky at times, but overall this is a pretty good case Pretty dope case ngl

Pros. Handsome case. Understated RGB. Appearance wise just nice all around.

Cons. Only comes with one fan, 120mm in exhaust. When considering the cost of adding 2 to 4 fans, this case isn't that cheap any more.
Cheap build quality. Metal is soft. PCIe covers are punch out.
Poor airflow. Despite what they say, very little air is making it in the front. I have 4 140mm fans in this case, and my GPU temp drops like 20c when I take the side panel off.
Bad front panel design. Removing the front panel takes a bit of effort, and the RGB wire is very short and fragile. I ended up having to solder the connector back together. The PCB they use als...view more Pros. Handsome case. Understated RGB. Appearance wise just nice all around.

Bad front panel design. Removing the front panel takes a bit of effort, and the RGB wire is very short and fragile. I ended up having to solder the connector back together. The PCB they use also interferes with possible fan placement in the front, but you'd get no airflow at all if you mounted the fans in the front panel anyway.
Riveted HDD cage. This made it very, very difficult to fit my older PSU. I upgraded with RTX 3000, and the newer one was much shorter. YMMV.

Once built, it is a perfectly functional and nice looking case, but I will be upgrading out of airflow concerns alone.

Bought one of these to get back into PC building. Hard to beat for the price. Easy to manage cables, and RGB isn't over the top.

Was impressed enough to go back for another one for a second build. Bought one of these to get back into PC building. Hard to beat for the price. Easy to manage cables, and RGB isn't over the top.

I just happened to have gigabyte components that was perfect for my build, The Gigabyte pc case is attractive and ideal for displaying Gigabyte hardware.

Good case with fair room for ATX motherboard. Good case with fair room for ATX motherboard.

well the reason i am giving this case 4 star is because of the front i mean if you want single sided rgb fans you will have to put them somewhere else otherwise you will not see the rgb unless you somehow take the front part of the case of other then that this is and excellent case if you building a pc or getting a prebuilt pc from pb tech! well the reason i am giving this case 4 star is because of the front i mean if you want single sided rgb fans you will have to put them somewhere else otherwise you will not see the rgb unless you somehow take the front part of the case of other then that this is and excellent case if you building a pc or getting a prebuilt pc from pb tech!
