Antec Intros CX200M RGB Elite Micro-ATX Tower with Pillarless Left Corner

Antec introduced the CX200M RGB Elite case. This is the third case release in the last 48 hours to feature a pillarless front-left corner, a design choice that enables a more unimpeded view of your build inside. It is a Micro-ATX tower that comes in two trims—black and white. A striking feature of this case is that Antec is including no less than five 120 mm ARGB LED fans with the case, which come pre-installed along the rear, the compartment partition, and the top exhaust. As with most other pillarless corner cases we've come across, the glasshouse only covers the upper compartment with the motherboard tray; the bottom compartment has perforated falls along the left and front; and is only accessible from the right panel.

The motherboard tray offers room for graphics cards up to 33 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 16.4 cm in height. Fan mounts include a 120 mm rear exhaust, two 120 mm top exhausts, and two additional mounts along the partition that divides the upper and lower compartments. Since the bottom compartment's panels have perforations, these fans essentially serve as intakes, guiding air through the drive cage. Radiator options include a 240 mm along the top panel, and a second 240 mm along the partition. The drive cage can hold a 3.5-inch drive, and two 2.5-inch mounts. Front panel connectivity includes two type-A USB 3.1 ports, and a 4-pole 3.5 mm headset jack. The case measures 210 mm x 350 mm x 392 mm (WxDxH), weighing about 4.5 kg. The company didn't reveal pricing.

One of 2 bottom fan is useless and there is no option for side intake fans like seen on most cases with front glass panel these days.

Another glass Case, similar to gazillions similar in the oversaturated glass panel PC cases, hopefully this horrendous trend will die someday.

It would make more sense if they flip those bottom 2 fans to actually blow air towards the gpu area.

Those bottom fans are probably reverse flow and these is a bunch of ventilation under them to feed the air to the GPU.

I think other than fan on rear panel others are optional, but 1 of the location for bottom fan sits on top of PSU and will be starved for any air to move.

Nope. According to the Antec product page the case comes with 5 preinstalled fans with fixed mode RGB. Proper Aliexpress spec

Neat. What other three-pillar cases like this are currently on the market?

Looks exactly like the Thermaltake View 270 TG.
