MSI MAG PANO 100R PZ ARGB ATX Black Mid Tower Case

The MSI MAG PANO 100R PZ is a mid-tower PC case designed for builders who want a visually striking enclosure without compromising on thermal headroom or build flexibility. Its defining feature is a sweeping 270-degree panoramic tempered glass surround — each 4 mm panel is precision-cut using a chamfering technique that minimises edge gaps for a seamless, polished finish. The panoramic side glass opens up the interior to full view, making it a natural showcase for ARGB lighting and custom cable work. Out of the box, the case ships with four pre-installed fans: three 120 mm ARGB reverse-blade fans mounted at the side and one 120 mm ARGB fan at the rear, all managed through an included 1-to-4 ARGB fan control board. This lets you synchronise lighting across all fans from a single header on a compatible MSI motherboard, eliminating the need for a separate controller during initial assembly. A key differentiator is native support for both standard and back-connect motherboard layouts — the PANO 100R PZ accepts regular ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX boards as well as the newer back-connect ATX and Micro-ATX designs that route power and data connectors to the rear of the PCB for a cleaner front-facing appearance. The unified (UNI) front panel cable further simplifies the build process by consolidating multiple front-panel connections into a single connector. Cooling potential is extensive: the top, side, and bottom each support radiators up to 360 mm, giving liquid-cooling enthusiasts multiple mounting options for an AIO or custom loop. Airflow management is aided by removable dust filters at the top, side, and bottom panels, each designed for tool-free removal and cleaning. Connectivity on the front I/O panel includes a USB 20Gbps Type-C port, two USB 5Gbps Type-A ports, a combined audio-out/mic-in jack, a power button, and an LED lighting toggle. — Verified Specifications — Form Factor: Mid Tower | Motherboard Support: ATX, Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX (standard); ATX, Micro-ATX (back-connect) | Pre-installed Fans: 3 × 120 mm ARGB reverse-blade (side) + 1 × 120 mm ARGB (rear) | Maximum GPU Length: 400 mm (source description) / 380 mm (merged attributes — flagged for review) | Maximum CPU Cooler Height: 166 mm | Maximum PSU Length: 200 mm | Expansion Slots: 8 | Drive Bays: 3 × 2.5-inch + 2 × 2.5-inch/3.5-inch combo | Radiator Support: 360/240/120 mm (top, side, bottom); 120 mm (rear) | Front I/O: 1 × USB 20Gbps Type-C, 2 × USB 5Gbps Type-A, audio combo | Tempered Glass Thickness: 4 mm | Dust Filters: Top, side, bottom | Warranty: 3 years
