The Raijintek Paean is an open-air chassis that may also act as a bench table. It allows you to install not only a wide range of potent components, but also larger liquid-cooling radiators. With its interesting mix of materials consisting of a 4 mm thick midsection and glass side panels, the Paean will surely turn more than a few heads.

I have this case since a while and agree with your conclusions. Will read the full review later and maybe share some.

Wow this might be a worthy successor to my HAF XB. Only thing is I dislike vertically mounted mobos.

It is not overly stated on their own papers nor in the reviews: this is a watercoooling ONLY case. It si prepared for it, and not for any sort of case fans.
Cable management can't be easier: all the nastie parts go behind in the second compartiment with the Hdd's.
With a LED/RGB mobo and the tinted glass it really shines and filters the brightness nicely. The photos of this review don't do it much justice, it is a beatifull to watch case, from many angles.

Dust is not a problem, never was in open cases: it just goes all to the fans on the rad! I installed a triple magnetic filter and clean it as needed. it just concentrates there :))))

A little detail: a sturdy metallic build like this, with 2 large 'bullet proof' glass-panels, plus lots of hardware, watercooling etc: weights quite a lot! not a lan-party box!
