| Introduction
HTPC cases are generally designed to match the rest of the electronics found inside a modern high tech living room. But what if the user is a hardcore gamer wanting an eye catching design to draw the eye to their pride and joy? The latest case from NZXT, the Rogue SFF chassis is here to answer that call. The Rogue is a cubic-like SFF desktop case designed for LAN parties, but it is already one of the favorite cases of HTPC system builders due to its aluminum body.

Packaging and bundle
Since the Rogue is a cube-like case, the packaging is cubic as well. It feels strong and the case is well supported with soft Styrofoam pieces, so it would be almost impossible for it to get damaged during transportation. Bundled with the case you will find a small but useful manual, many necessary screws and stand-offs, a second PSU support bracket for longer PSUs and the carrying straps, which are extremely useful if you are going to attend LAN parties.
