The latest addition to Thermaltake's Armor series of cases is a compact model targeted to high-end small form factor (SFF) computers. Let's see if the A30 is a good pick.
When you think of something hard and blue, what comes to mind? I wouldn't believe it if you said a computer chassis, but for the sake of this review, that is definitely what came to my mind. The part that always gets to me with computer cases is you never really know when you should replace one. Generally, it never wears out; the fans might, but those are cheap repairs. Due to the nature of it being made from steel (In many situations), it is also fairly durable. I guess one could argue that they need to upgrade to a larger case to put more components in, or they want a new look and feel for their computer. Nevertheless, computer chassis are a tricky one, because you can never really measure the case itself objectively, other than its physical dimensions, of course. It heavily depends on your personal preference. Are you looking for more room, better cooling, new look, or is it just some box to put your computer components into? I find that it is one of the most important aesthetic components to any computer, because the case can be individualized to a person; whereas, many of the internal components are not very aesthetically customizable. The Sentey Arvina GS-6400B is an interesting case -- this blue variant of the GS-6400 chassis has a nice sleek dark blue look, and comes with many notable features. Now, I'm not going to spoil the fun of telling you which exact features yet, as you will have to read on to find out all those juicy details!
Hopliten waren im antiken Griechenland schwerbewaffnete Krieger. Enermax hat eines seiner neusten Gehäuse ebenfalls als Hoplite benannt und möchte damit zum einen auf das robuste Erscheinungsbild, zum anderen aber auch auf die hochgerüstete Ausstattung verweisen. Das Hoplite kann gleich durch eine Reihe von beachtlichen Ausstattungsmerkmalen glänzen. Ob es wirklich der ideale Kampfgefährte für Gamer ist, soll unser Test aufzeigen.
USB 3.0 is the future and it’s here now, there’s no doubt it’s fast but there isn’t much yet in the way of pre-built hard drives on the market just yet that can take advantage of its speed. The solution of course is to get an aftermarket enclosure like the one I have today from Hornettek called the Viper. This enclosure is small and well made; I put it up against another USB 3.0 enclosure and found that it actually performs a bit better.
The 650D is the first mid-tower case within Corsair's Obsidian series - the other two models available, 700D and 800D, are full-tower cases.
We have another offering from Sentey and their “Extreme Division” line of cases today. This time we are going to take a look at their GS-6000 Optimus mid-tower case. Previously we looked at the Arvina GS-6400 which came away with top honors. With the Optimus, Sentey looks to be going for a budget version of the Arvina in the mid-tower size. The Optimus comes in two varieties, the GS-6000 which is all black and the GS-6000R with red highlights; we have the former on hand today.
The Enforcer is the latest case from CM Storm, Cooler Master's gaming division. Coming with an interesting look and affordable price, let's see if it is a good pick.
For those of you who lived under a rock last year and completely missed out on the BMW Group Designworks USA inspired Level 10, Let me bring you up to speed real quick. To understand this design, you have to first envision a thick, vertically mounted motherboard tray attached to a wide flat base. Unlike a typical chassis', there wasn't the "boxed" look with this chassis at all. In this design everything was mounted to the motherboard tray for support. In the front you had and optical bay rack that was in a separate compartment than the hard drive, and which each received their own slim covers. The top half of the motherboard used a small cover to go over the CPU cooler and PWM area of the motherboard, while yet another hinged compartment covered the expansion cards. This design is very unique, and was very impressive upon release. The biggest problem with the Level 10 I saw was the devastating price tag!
Wer früher Wert auf ein besonders leises Computergehäuse Wert legte, musste meistens selber Hand anlegen. Heute sieht das anders aus, viele Hersteller haben mindestens ein Modell im Portfolio, welches über spezielle schalldämmende Maßnahmen verfügt. Mit dem neuen H2 möchte NZXT nun ebenfalls ein besonders leises Gehäuse auf den Markt bringen.
Cubitek are a reasonably new kid on the block, but they’re making waves and not in the typical segments of the case market. Today is such an example, their mini-ITX chassis, the Mini Tank. Its got a distinctive look and an interesting internal construction.
