Arctic Cooling is probably most well known for CPU and VGA coolers but a few years ago they started branching out into cases. The concept behind ACs case range has always been silent but effective cooling and this philosophy also extends to the PSUs that are bundled with each chassis. Today we are reviewing one of the newest additions to the Silentium range, the T3.

With plenty of good Cooler Master experiences behind us we were given the opportunity to review their latest budget case, the Centurion 590. We actually bought one of the original Centurions a few years back and it is a solid model which has proven to be hard wearing over years of heavy use.

NZXT is a company focused on the needs and desires of PC enthusiasts and gamers alike. Today, we are taking a look at their newest mid-tower case: the NZXT Tempest. While aesthetics, quality and price are important considerations for those purchasing a computer case; with this addition to their lineup, NZXT have set their focus on one core feature: cooling. The question posed is: Have NZXT created a quality case that can aptly be dubbed the 'Airflow King'?

One of the most challenging aspects of assembling a system is to hide the cables, making it look as clean and tidy as possible. Every enthusiast likes to have a good looking system and for modders this is considered a necessity. Ultra have always tried to satisfy modders, after all they are the company who first released modular PSUs. The m998 chassis we are looking at today is named after an old army vehicle and it is loaded with features, some of which are very useful.

GMC is a Korean based company who focus almost entirely on the design and production of HTPC cases. We had a look at several of their products in the past, each of them designed with a different purpose in mind. Today we will take a look at their latest HTPC case, the AVC-S7. The AVC-S7 is an elegant but very short case which is designed to match DVD players and other home theater equipment. Let us see if such a short case can be practical for housing modern home theater systems.

Many of the first generation mATX cases were very restrictive and therefore not very popular, however cubic mATX cases have, like much in the world of technology, evolved considerably since then. Today we will take a look at one of the most interesting cubic mATX cases available, the Ultra MicroFly SX6. The MicroFly has an Ultra XVS 600W modular PSU installed from the factory and is able to house full length video cards and optical drives ...

Usually the primary criteria when shopping for cases are the exterior design, thermal and acoustic performance and the number of features. A good case usually is a balanced combination of those criteria; a case without fans would be very silent but the thermal performance would be awful, while a case with extremely fast fans would offer extremely good thermal performance but the noise would make it intolerable for many people. With those criteria in mind NZXT designed the Hush, a case which can offer proper cooling and good looks but at the same time be entirely silent and comes at an affordable price. Perhaps one of the most balanced quality cases ever designed? We will soon find out.

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.

A couple of months ago we looked at Cooler Masters Cosmos 1000 case, a high end model in every way. From the size to the design, to the performance, the Cosmos excelled. The only downside to this product was the high premium, so it immediately rules out a large portion of the enthusiast market. All is not lost however, as Cooler Masters CM 690 (RC-690) is priced at a more affordable £50/$80. The 690 manages to pack in some excellent features with a well thought out design.

In my time as a hardware reviewer I have never actually reviewed an enthusiast orientated Cooler Master case; I have used them but never been in the position to take a proper look at one. Thinking back, one of the most impressive would have to be their Wave Master design which looked fantastic, specifically compared to other cases of its time. In addition to this it had a few good features which made using it as the basis for a review system easy. It would also appear that high end Cooler Master cases are well made because one of my friends still uses his Wave Master, 4 years after it was originally launched, and it is still in perfect condition.

The majority of Revoltec products consist of trendy looking cables, fans, input devices and USB peripherals. They are still not one of the most well known companies on the planet, but they are well respected by enthusiasts throughout Europe. Although most products Revoltec produce have been modding related equipment, they have recently begun to diversify more and moved on to cooling, enclosure and ATX case products.

In the past we have had the opportunity to review many of Antec’s products, including their computer enclosures and power supplies. Generally we have been extremely happy with the performance of these products, and today we will be reviewing one of their latest products from the “Veris” family. The Veris products are mainly products with the home digital market in mind. The Fusion Black 430 is just such a product aimed at the growing HTPC community.

GMC is a Korean company who focus entirely on computer chassis, mainly dealing with HTPC enclosures. We have reviewed several HTPC enclosures over the past few months in our labs and several of them have impressed us. It is common for GMC cases to combine good looks with high quality engineering, even in the value market segment. Today on review we have one of the best mid sized tower cases GMC produce, the X-22. The X-22 is designed to meet the requirements of a sturdy and spacious, yet elegant and appealing case for PC enthusiasts. Let's see if it makes the grade.

There may be thousands of computer cases on store shelves for sale, but if you think about it only a few are innovative. From a cheap 30$ value case up to a 300$ aluminum tower, the basic concept is more or less the same. It is rare to see a case that differs from the rest not only in size, number of features and appearance, but down to the very basic design. GMC have however designed a chassis very different from the rest which allows the optical drive to be placed facing upwards. This design has many downsides but also has some advantages which can prove to be useful. GMC is the only company who produces such a case at the time being and registered patents worldwide for it as well, so it is unlikely to see another manufacturer copying the design. GMC baptized this case R-2 “Toast”. Let us have a closer look at it.

GMC is perhaps the only manufacturer that focused entirely on HTPC cases during the past few years. A few weeks ago we had a look at the Noblesse AVC-S1 HTPC case from GMC, a very small and narrow case, meant to fit narrow spaces and match mini Hi-Fi systems. Today we will take a look at yet another HTPC case from GMC, the AVC-M1. The AVC-M1 is similar to the S1 but considerably taller and doesn’t need a proprietary PSU, a short cooler and does not limit the user to low profile expansion cards. Hopefully GMC didn’t repeat any of the other mistakes as well.

As computers become more and more versatile and advanced, home theater PCs are getting more popular by the day. We have been tracking the evolution of HTPCs ever since desktop cases morphed into their latest manifestation – computers which are easy to use with only a remote control and feature small TFT touch screens on the faceplate. By the looks of it the evolution won’t stop any time soon. GMC recently released a HTPC case, the AVC-S1, which packs a load of features but it is designed to suit narrow spaces, mainly matching mini-HiFi system. GMC managed to surprise us with several innovative and quality products in the past. Let us see if the Korean manufacturer managed to impress us again with this small desktop case.

CoolerMaster is a well-known company and has built a strong reputation for providing quality products for the PC Industry. Most anyone who’s worked on or around PCs for any length of time will be familiar with the CoolerMaster brand.
Since cooling is the main focus of CoolerMaster, it’s no surprise that the products they produce are made to make our PCs run with optimal cooling. Whether it’s air-cooled or water-cooled, they have a product to make it happen.
That brings us nicely to the CoolerMaster CM Media 281 HTPC Chassis which we have on our test bed today.

Not everyone has an endless wad of cash to spend on new hardware, so with this in mind, we have sourced one of the cheapest cases we can find for under 30 euros and taken it for a test drive. Is the chassis utterly useless, Grace aims to find out.

Back in the end of July -05 we had a look at a more or less revolutionary computer enclosure from Antec’s Performance One series; called the P180. It had some innovative features such as three layer sound dampening side doors with separated apartments for the Power Supply unit and the motherboard. We liked this case so when Antec contacted us about a new updated “Special Edition” version called the P182 SE (which only will be made in 5000 units), we couldn’t resist having a look at it.

ULTRA is really working hard these days to produce and provide quality components for the PC enthusiast. From Power Supply Units (PSU) to CPU coolers, RAM, and all the way up to full PC cases, ULTRA wants to be an overall supplier for the computer hobbyist. We’ve recently reviewed some really nice PSUs from ULTRA and given them some high awards here at Driver Heaven.
Today, we want to look at a newly released PC Case. It’s called the GRID. It’s an ATX Mid-Tower PC Case and comes packed with a wallop and loads of features. Included with the case is a 700W modular PSU. We’ll look first at the case and then consider the PSU.

Today we will take a look at another potential masterpiece from NZXT: the Adamas. The Adamas is not designed to be overly showy, or even very ergonomic. It is a very special kind of case, aiming exclusively towards hardcore enthusiasts. As you can pretty much guess from the name (which comes from the Greek word Adamant, which stands for unbreakable) it is supposed to be extremely durable. True enough even if the Adamas weights only 9kg, NZXT claims that it can support over 300lbs (>135Kgr), the weight of two average people! The Adamas is entirely made out of aluminum, front panel, frame and interior alike. And while most aluminum enclosures are barely 1mm thick, the Adamas has a 3mm thick frame and 2mm thick internal structure!

Home theater personal computers have faced an explosive growth during the past few years, at a faster rate than most other consumer electronics. The most common equipment for a modern living room is not a 32” plasma TV, a projector or a 1000W Hi-If system, but a computer to control everything. The introduction of media center computers has seen the return of the desktop case and now can include new technology such as wireless, dedicated home theater operating systems and remote controls to improve the whole experience. For the gamers amongst us sometimes smaller cases commonly used for theater PC’s do not cater for high end components or do not have room for expansion and so a larger chassis is required.
An answer to these problems comes from Korea and GMC, who released the first tower home theater case, the Muse K1. Loaded with more features than most desktop PC cases and able to house even the most powerful systems while remaining stylish enough to match other high-tech equipment, it arrives on the scene to cover the gap between a desktop HTPC case and enthusiast’s tower case. Many might think that GMC is a new company, but actually is one of the oldest case manufacturers in Korea, founded back in 1996. GMC specializes only in computer enclosures and power supply units, and their products lineup includes many fine desktop and tower cases. The Muse AVC-K1 was released only recently and is one of the best cases GMC has to offer.

“In Win” are a new name to us as we have never seen, or reviewed one of their products in the past. They recently emailed us with some marketing jargon for a new case which was more plastic than metal and featured quite a few unusual features such as an oval shape and a “one touch everything” design so we decided to give the product a test.

NZXT is most probably well known to our readers, although the company was established only 2 years ago. Every single case they have released since then became quickly popular because of their distinctive appearance and high quality. NZXT cases can be quite distinctive like the Nemesis or exceptionally elegant, like the Lexa. The Zero is marketed as the ‘perfect cooling solution’ by NZXT and is a simple but attractive case with a total of 8 fans pre-installed inside it with 7 of those fans being 120mm fans!

We recently reviewed the Antec SOLO case here at Driver heaven and weren’t disappointed with its performance and design. Today we are having a look at a completely different Antec case which not only differs in design it also has one of the longest names we’ve ever seen on a computer enclosure, ladies and gents meet the “Antec Nine Hundred Ultimate Gamer Case”

Imagine yourself a PC enclosure designer, charged with the responsibility of distinguishing your company’s product from a crowded field of competitors. Tough job, eh? Admittedly, cases have come a long way from the beige box days (for those of you who were alive back then), but they generally must adhere to a set formula…mount a motherboard, power supply, drives & peripherals.
Aside from purely aesthetic changes, one thing a case designer can do is take advantage of new technology to add features, an opportunity that presents itself rarely. There one is very ripe opportunity for case designers at the moment, though, and that opportunity comes from hot-swappable SATA technology. As we pointed out in a recent article here at DH, SATA drives are fighting their way out of internal, permanent drive bays and into the open, where one of their coolest features can be readily used.

NZXT while being rather new on the scene have released many fantastically designed chassis. The Nemesis and Nemesis Elite were fine examples of good looking “gamer” cases, the Trinity an excellent “budget” case and finally the Lexa, which we reviewed earlier this year and found it to be an excellent “designer” case. NZXT just recently released a case which is meant to continue this success, the Apollo, a mid range gamer case. Despite its good price, the Apollo is designed to easily accommodate a powerful system, while being of high build quality with appealing aesthetics.

Today we have the chance to look at a new and sexy all aluminum chassis from Cooler Master, the Mystique 631. This product has recently taken on a new name. It was previously known as the Wave Master II and our review sample is still carrying the original name. As with all the products we have looked at from Cooler Master their packaging is top notch, pretty much assuring a safe trip from the warehouse to our front door.

In the past we have reviewed several Antec products here on Driver Heaven and we have been very pleased with their high quality and top notch performance

As we know Cooler Master have been specializing in cooling for some time now but in recent years they have expanded their product range to appeal to a much wider sector of PC enthusiast. We know about their heatsinks and fans but now they offer great PC cases, power supplies that are SLI certified and anything from computer ducting, cold cathodes to front panel displays, cables and more. Today we get the chance to look at one of their mainstream PC cases, the Centurion 534.

Recently most HTPC cases have evolved to the point that many people could choose them over normal tower cases, even if they don’t really need them. Their thermal problems seem to be reduced to a minimum lately as well, through the continuous evolution of the HTPC chassis.
They are usually more feature-packed than tower cases and have a higher level of aesthetic appeal. These cases are designed for your living room and are not meant for normal everyday PCs, even though nothing keeps you from using them for that purpose. Today we will have a look at one of the most advanced HTPC cases available, the M-Station HT-1100 from 3R System. The M-Station is a very well built case which also features an integrated iMON VFD and remote control. The iMON has been very popular among HTPC enthusiasts so it is very nice to see it integrated in a HTPC case.

by Chaos | 17th February 2006
The Tech Station is made of nonconductive, scratch-resistant plastic. No metal screws or brackets are exposed in any of the sensitive areas. The motherboard sits on protective rubber standoffs, the top shelf has a neoprene surface, and the test bench sits on 4 rubber feet. These features provide testing without the worries of frying your hardware like if you were working on a metal bench, your bedroom floor or whereever else you decide to do your testing

For most home users, when it comes on deciding which high end computer case to buy, the greatest factor is most probably not the efficiency of the case but the innovation of its design. Today I have a pretty strange looking case for review from Newance.

It's time to look at the Thermaltake Kandalf Enhanced Aluminum Chassis Series, in the form of the VA9000 series aluminum chassis identified as the VA9000 SWA. You'll never lack for storage space with the Kandalf chassis or complain about cramped quarters. The versatility and cooling options abound with this particular product, which will be discussed in more detail below.

NZXT always had us used to cases that are innovative, practical and different from most of the competition. Always their cases were made with care, good quality components and were very promising to the users. They only recently expanded their products line with a new case, promising excellent performance and attractive design at the same time. This case is very elegant and aesthetically appealing by being completely symmetric, rather than featuring a complex design. Let us have a close look at this new, very promising case from NZXT, the Lexa.

We have reviewed several of XG's products before here on Driverheaven, two power supplies - the MGE Xtreme Gamer Vortec 500w and the XG Magnum 500w plus one case; the MGE XG Quantum.

The last Thermaltake case we looked at was the Tenor model aimed at Media Centre systems and it received the DH silver award. We understand however that the Tenor isn’t for everyone and it is also worth mentioning not everyone can afford a top of the range case costing over $100. So what do Thermaltake offer for the midrange user? Well one of their solutions is the Swing case which we will be reviewing today.

PC’s have become essential home devices and the need to be more aesthetically pleasing and easy to use has increased. The one area where aesthetics matter more than most is the use of a home theatre PC. There is nothing worse than seeing a beige box sitting beside your lovely silver Digibox and Plasma TV so its great news that Thermaltake have taken this requirement and created the Tenor case, lets take a look at it now…

PSP owners should all be familiar with the 32 MB memory stick that comes included with the purchase of the Sony PSP. This small amount of space is capable of holding all of your save game files, as well as a few songs or a few minutes of low-quality video. With the release of the 2.0 firmware recently, the PSP is becoming less of a gaming device and more of a multimedia device. It currently supports a variety of photo and music files and can even display video in 4:3 and 16:9. However, a lot of owners are missing out on these features because of their 32 MB restriction.

We have reviewed two cases from Antec in the last couple of months, but the one we received for review this week is the most anticipated so far; the Antec P180.
Hands down it is without a doubt one of the quietest case ive used. The three-layer side panel (aluminium, plastic, aluminium) does the job of blocking out any erroneous noise very well. The silicon cushions in the hard drive cages also do their job very well, in other cases I’ve always been able to hear my 10,000rpm raptor, and in the P180 it’s barely noticeable. Its this attention to detail that deserves high praise.

Negatives aside, have MGE managed to make a great product with the XG Quantum? I would reply with a resounding “yes”. I thoroughly enjoyed working with the Quantum, it is a very well built case except for the little complaint I had about the locking mechanism for the expansion cards which didn’t feel very secure. Fortunately it is possible to remove and use regular screws to secure the cards

by Aaron | 20th June 2005
It’s the mid-tower size; it supports either one 120mm fan or two 80mm fans in the front and rear. The case itself is really light weight at around 14 pounds but that isn’t necessarily a good thing. A lot of cheap steel cases are around .8mm thick, this case at its thickest is .6mm, so handle with extra care.

Antec's original Performance Series helped catalyze the "build-your-own" high-performance computing revolution in 1999. Performance TX is the third generation of this industry classic line of cases, redesigned to meet Intel's Thermally Advantaged Chassis (TAC) design guide and upgraded with ATX12V v2.01 power supplies.
I recently have had the pleasure to review another case from Antec, some of you may remember that I reviewed the Antec P160 case a couple of weeks ago and now it’s time to check one of their newer creations out: The Antec TX1050B.

We recently had the chance to look at one of Aspire’s (makers of the popular X-Dreamer II case) top of the line chassis, the X-Navigator ATXA8NW-AL/500. This case features a rich amount of features aside from its aluminum body. It includes a windowed side door with 120mm UV blue LED fan, changeable faceplates, front LCD temperature display and fan control, 500-watt power supply, four 80mm UV blue LED case fans and a whole lot more.

The SilverStone Temjin TJ03 is an extraordinary chassis, beautifully built with a solid structure it will be sure to appeal to a wide selection of enthusiast user. No other case ive used is comparable to the TJ03 with regards to quality and design. It is not an inexpensive case but is worth it; after all, if you are going to spend hundreds of dollars on a high-end system it only makes sense to house it in a worthy chassis. Cases are one of the few components, if not the only components which are not phased-out of the computer
|
by Asmoday | 26th May 2005
Well what do I have to say after using this case for a couple of days? Antec has managed to make one heck of product, it’s easy to work with, is aesthetically very pleasing and has good thermal capabilities, (the case temp never went over 5-6C above room temperature.). Other key points are the removable motherboard tray, a concept which should be more widely adapted by case manufacturers the world over.

Everyone should be familiar with the name Lian Li by now, they have been among the top case manufacturer's for years with their innovative and high quality aluminium cases, but quality comes with a price, Lian Li has never been known to be cheap and the PC-V1100 is no exception. With its price tag of a hefty 255 euro it is targeted for the high end market, but for those of you with deep pockets and the desire to have a stylish looking case with a very innovative internal design, this might just be the case for you.

Glossy Black, MS-Blue (matches Microsoft Blue tooth mouse), Glossy silver, glossy red and glossy white. The Gloss finish (called liquid gloss) on our model (black) is stunning, absolutely smooth and really head and shoulders above any finish I've seen on a PC case. Probably the best way of describing it is that its got a similar appearance to the skin of HR Giger's Alien when wet... very cool.

Chenbro have been makers of high quality cases for quite some time, they received critical acclaim and consumer success with their Xpider (PC61166) , this was a a favourite with Lan goers and gamers the world over. Never heard of it ? Perhaps you know it as the "gaming bomb", this was how it was marketed outside North America.
