I did not plan to buy an ATX case initially as size was the main factor for my build.
Unfortunately, the ITX board I wanted (X470 Chipset) was out of stock for quite some time and it was killing me. So I did some research on Micro ATX and ATX cases that are of the smalles possible size, now again the chipset I was looking for (X470) was not available in Micro ATX at this time of writing - From ASUS brand exclusively. So I was left with full ATX option only.
After doing some research I came to this case and it really caught my attention. I figured out everything I wanted for my built and pulled the trigger. And I'm happy that I did so. Here is what I put in this case.
Ryzen 7 2700X with Wraith Prism Cooler (It fits well with still some gap above for the airflow).
ASUS ROG Strix X470-F Gaming MotherBoard.
ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 8GB ROG STRIX Graphics Card
CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB 32GB (2x16GB) 3200 MHz DDR4 RAM.
Corsair SF600 High-Performance SFX PSU.
Two Extra Cooler Master MasterFan Pro 120 Air Balance RGB Fans.
1 X Samsung 970 EVO NVMe M.2 drive + 1X Samsung Fircuda 2tb SSHD
Note that you can place 3 Fans in this case. This case comes with two fans pre-installed at the front which I removed and replaced with Corsair RGB Fan and placed third at the GPU side vent.
This case is well ventilated that allows for plenty of airflows. And most of all, it is compact for the size of ATX!
The only issue that you will face is cable management, but with some carefully laid out wires, you can make it little less messy and better.
I'm using this case in laid flat/horizontal orientation. The case comes with Four Rubber Pads so you can stick them on all four corners on the side and lay the case flat. But my case came with only two of them. And I cannot use just two pads to lay it flat. For now, I'm just using some temporary adjustment to place the case until I find some alternative at some hardware store. But it doesn't bother me much.
Highly recommended if you want a compact case.

Only complaint is lack of more drive bays, especially for smaller drives like SSDs. (I ended up putting in three drives, even though there are only spaces for two) and all of the wiring for drive bays is right up against the power supply, so wire management gets a bit messy in that space.
Speaking of wire management... there is none. Seems like they couldn't made some accommodations for wiring behind the motherboard, but it really is not possible. I was able to get a little creative though and overall airflow seems fine with space for three 120mm fans.
There's approximately 0 cable management. The back panel is completely flush, so everything goes in front. The biggest issue though, is the front panel can be finicky. It has the power button (and reset) on the removable part. If you don't get it lined up exactly your power button will feel broken, and not work. Also.. if you have a larger newer graphics card, it will sit very close to the side panel. If you have an older thinner card, like a single slot or a true double slot, that won't be an issue. Many new cards are 2.5 or larger width. With all of the cables in the main compartment, air flow suffers and there's no good place to put an exhaust fan, so you probably want to avoid high heat components. But... yeah it's a bit thinner, with a flipped window. That's about the only features of this case. If that's what you need (like it was for me) then this case will work.

A few odds and ends:
Trouble arose when I had to add a second Ironwolf. The drive couldn't be installed because there is a little lip at the back of the drive cage that prevents the drive from being inserted fully. Most drives don't stay square all the way to the end like the Ironwolfs so they will fit. I suppose I will have to figure something out.
The also wish this was all aluminum or even all steel. It is okay look wise with consumer grade equipment in the stand but sticks out badly if your stuff is brushed aluminum. The filters on the top and bottom are okay and the front grill is metal; at least as nice as an old Sansui component. The plastic frame to the front is not so nice. This sat off to the side in shadow so it wasn't an issue.
The front removes quite easily and looks like it will be fairly durable. I'm not sure about the drive mounts. They require quite a bit of bending to get the drive on and off and I always worry they will break.
I found the case fans to be quiet at my listening distance of about 8'.
The case sides would appear to be switchable but they aren't. They could be, but there isn't enough clearance in the back for the window.
That's about it.
I chose this case for some very specific reasons:
I was building a new PC that I could place horizontally in my TV stand, based around the newly released AMD components, namely the Ryzen 5 3600 and the Radeon RX 5700. Because of my CPU choice, I needed a motherboard that would support it, but the X570 boards are all too expensive. I decided on a B450 board, however these boards need a bios update to be compatible, and the only way to update the bios without a previous gen CPU, is with Bios Flashback. MSI has bios flashback on only their ATX sized boards, so therefore I needed an ATX board and a case that could accommodate it, while still being compact enough to fit the space. That's where the Core G3 comes in
This case ticked all the right boxes: Support for a full size ATX board, reference size GPU (aka the RX 5700), and a 240mm radiator with fans for CPU cooling (I could have used the included cooler, but I got a deal on an RGB AIO, and it would have cost me to buy some extra case fans anyway - the two included fans work just fine as well)
I made sure to check all the measurements to make sure everything would fit. It was at this time I read reviews about how unreliable the included PCIe riser cable was. Even with this in mind, it was the case I wanted and would work with what I had, so I made sure to factor in the cost of a new PCIe cable.
I built the system with zero issues, and tried the included cable first. The system booted a few times, and I managed to install Windows, but as soon as I installed the drivers, the whole system came crashing down, requiring system restore. I repeated the process several times to be sure, and got the same results. I chucked the cable, and immediately ordered a new EZDIY one. This one seemed to work better, but I got some hard crashes and failed boots after the GPU drivers were installed. I changed the PCIe bus to 2.0 (from 3.0) and the system finally worked properly. PCIe 2.0 x16 is enough to run the RX 5700 without performance loss. I ran benchmarks, and everything seemed fine, but then one of my games started to experience some graphical bugs, and the video would freeze on occasion.
Today, after much more research, I bit the bullet and ordered a new LINKUP PCIe 3.0 x16 twinaxial shielded cable. You can spot this type by the separately shielded cables, as opposed to a full width ribbon cable. These do cost more (about twice the price of a ribbon cable), so keep that in mind. This one is even rated at PCIe 4.0 ready.
I installed the cable, reset it to PCIe 3.0 as it should be, and the system has been working perfectly ever since.
Sorry for the long story, but suffice it to say, this IS a good case, and I can recommend it for a similar type build, as long as you are aware of what you are getting, and you factor in the price of the riser cable.
Other things I like about the case:
Can support performance parts, even water cooling with multiple rads
A proper front panel with 2x USB 3.0 and 2x USB 2.0
4 separate dust filers (3 of them magnetic)
See through panel (only plastic, but does the job)
A decent price even with the added riser cable cost
Downsides:
You need to buy another riser cable
Only supports small form factor (SFX) power supplies
Few anchor points for cable management
Cons:
I had trouble finding the right screws (supplied) to attach the MB and ended up stripping one of the mounts and now the screw can't be removed! or at least not without some really invasive methods! There is only an opening at the back of the case for the video card. Therefore MB PCIE slots can't be used with cards having external outputs i.e. I wanted to add e-sata port via PCIE, but can't find a way to do it.
Could be a great case if:
1. The steel sheet is a bit thicker
2. Offer expansion slot in the space right above CPU
3. Offer low profile mounting options
Update:
1. The front USB 3.0 ports has strong interference with USB 2.0 ports. My Logitech nano receiver could not function while any 3.0 device is plugged in.
2. my example started developing issues in the pcie raiser cable. Getting bluescreens complaining VIDEO_INTERNAL_SCHEDULER error. And my graphics card was running at PCIE 3.0 x16, not PCIE 4.0. Replacing the cable seems to fix the issue. So something to be aware of.

PROS:
- Enough of space to play with adding a water cooler
- Fairly easy to setup and take apart (front panel comes off easily)
- Slim form factor for ATX
CONS:
- Power button is EXTREMELY SENSITIVE! (less than 1mm actuation), and you can power it off by accident easily, I am going to have to modify it.
- Filters all seem to work fine and are flat for the most part, however they tend to slide off easily.
- The PCI-e extension is less flexible than expected.
- Thinner metal than expected
- Few troubles with the screws as they were poor quality and had trouble removing a couple that had been cross threaded.
- No space for cables to go behind the board
