MSI had done a nice job in making a simple looking and sleek designed case with MAG PYLON Case. This case will attract many PC builders looking for such clean designed tempered glass RGB case.
With many tempered glass case people have bleed air issue, where gap between side glass panel and case body allows air to bleed in or out of case effecting air flow and with this bleed air comes lot of dust too. MSI uses full border foam padding for side Tempered glass panels in MAG PYLON Case which eliminate this bleed air issue. Good one MSI.
So at conclusion, at a price tag of approx. Rs.10K, the MSI MAG PYLON Case is a very good option if you are looking for a tempered glass case with RGB lighting.
