DeepCool CK560 Mid-Tower Case Review

Complete System

This is such an easy case to work with, likely because it’s mostly like a thousand others I’ve worked with. No big surprises, but hey, that just makes my life easier.

As I said, loads of room down here for stuffing extra cables out of the way.

No cable routing hole for the GPU cables though, which is a shame.

And there’s a little cut-away here so the screwdriver can easily reach the expansion slots; a little detail but I love it.

The GPU support bracket is great, just adjust the height, tighten it up, and bam, no more saggy GPU bottom.

Cable routing is decent too, I mean, it’s no Picasso, well… maybe one of his later works, but it’s good enough.

Once it’s all wired up though, it does look pretty smart. I do think some of the larger 4000 series Nvidia GPUs will be too big for this case though, but hey, that’s true of most cases.

Those large cable gromets are working great, and most cable runs are nice and short in here.

This one was easy to use, and not too small do deal with the thicker cables.

The RTX 2080 fits easily enough, but it’s a real shame about the path the GPU cables have to take.

Overall though, the end result looks absolutely stunning. The cable management looks neat, there’s good space around the hardware, and with four fans pre-installed the overall airflow and cooling is really excellent.

Plus, with ARGB lighting, you can really light up the case interior to show off your hardware.

Larger CPU coolers won’t be an issue either, the bigger coolers from DeepCool and even the Noctua D15S would fit in here just fine.

With the glass back in place, you can enjoy your lovely hardware on the interior. It’s a big sunny here today, so the glass is all glare, but it looks great in a darker room.

The fans are actually set quite far back in this case, so they give a more subdued lighting effect to the front panel.

But overall, I love this, as it lights up the case, but it doesn’t turn my office into a little disco.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
