Hello,  I was just wonder if its worth it to go with the Luxe  compared to the Pro.  I personally think the luxe looks a lot better in white than the pro does and like the idea of having the fans that can be mounted on the top of the case under the removable grill filter.  Other than that, what are the differences?  Do you guys think it is worth the extra $$ ?

Idk if it's worth the extra $ cause I haven't used a pro but I have the luxe and it's a great case. It was super easy to make room for my super thick rad cause of the screws you can just remove whatever you don't need and I loved it. The side panel is the biggest piece of poo ever though. I literally haven't touched it with my fingers once, but have rubbed it with a micro fiber cloth and it is dirt as hell. It looks like it has finger prints all over it but I have literally never touched it with my fingers. It is a garbage piece of acrylic. Only downside I can think of from my experience. I believe the pro also has that problem too though.

Yes,  I'm pretty sure that they use the same type/quality acrylic.

It is metal instead of plastic, and the lights

Yes, the Luxe is absolutely worth it. I own the Pro, and while you can't go wrong with either Chassis, I do wish that I sprung for the Luxe namely for the extra mounting room for the fans on the top of the case.

 

The 2nd SSD Bracket, and outside LED is nice too, but the extra fan space is what really sells it for me.
