Meshify 3 XL E-ATX full tower

The Meshify 3 XL is a full-tower chassis built from steel with a black finish and a light-tinted tempered-glass side panel. It supports motherboards from Mini-ITX up to EE-ATX and SSI-EEB, making it suitable for high-end workstations or enthusiast gaming builds that need generous internal volume.

Suited for custom-loop builders

This case suits builders planning custom water-cooling loops thanks to support for 420 mm top radiators and 360 mm front and side radiators with removable brackets. It is less suited for users who need external 5.25-inch or 3.5-inch drive bays, or those wanting a compact footprint for limited desk space.

Three pre-installed 140 mm Momentum fans

Three 140 mm Momentum RGB PWM fans come fitted at the front, delivering immediate airflow. The front panel accepts three 120 or 140 mm fans or two 180 mm units, while the top, rear and side mounts add further cooling flexibility for air or liquid configurations.

Questions about this item

How often should the bottom dust filter be cleaned to maintain airflow?

The bottom dust filter is the only filter on the case; clean it whenever visible dust builds up to keep the three pre-installed 140 mm front fans and any additional fans feeding cool air into the chassis.

What is the maximum radiator length the top panel can accept before clearance becomes the limiting factor?

The top panel supports radiators up to 420 mm, so a 420 mm unit is the longest that will fit without interfering with motherboard components or the side panel.

How loud are the three included Momentum 14 RGB PWM fans when they run at full speed all day?

The three pre-installed 140 mm Momentum 14 RGB PWM fans are PWM controlled, so noise scales with speed; at maximum RPM they move more air but produce audible airflow noise typical of 140 mm PWM fans.
