Conclusion

In conclusion we can say that BitFenix ​​Aegis is a mid-tower PC case designed for those that aim to have a fresh rig compatible with all-in-one watercooling solutions as well as custom loops. BitFenix ​​decided to use a glossy plastic finish on this model, rather light and easy to scratch up. We would have prefered to see a different material treated in a better way in order to add a bit more value to the overall design of the product.

The available interior space is adeguate for a case compatible with micro-ATX motherboards and thanks to the extra space available behind every plastic cover, you can build push-pull watercooling setups without removing everything inside the case. Only the area dedicated to the power supply is a little bit under dimensioned and in the case of units of large dimensions it is necessary to remove one HDD cage. Since the cooling seems to be the key point of this case, BitFenix ​​also added a small three-way controller that can handle up to a maximum of four fans. Using the basic equipment of the case, which includes a 120mm fan at the rear of the chassis, we found that temperatures are at a reasonable level mostly due to thanks plenty of openings on the Aegis.

The amount of features available is interesting and we appreciate the small 2.8-inch TFT display placed on the front panel of the case, something we already seen on the Pandora. This feature increases the final cost of the case, however, BitFenix ​​offers two different versions with or without ICON Display. In addition, there are five different colors in order to meet the taste of each user and modder.

The final price of the BitFenix ​​Aegis with ICON display is about 94 euro on the price search engine Geizhals. In our opinion, the price is slightly higher and we would like to see at least one more fan in the package in order to reach a proper airflow. Overall, this case is a good solution for those who want a product suitable for watercooling solutions with support fo custom loops thanks to the two pump and reservoir supports available in the package. The build quality is good but we would like to see a different plastic with higher quality; but since there are quite a few things that could be improved we give the Bitfenix Aegis 4 out of 5 stars.
