Auch im neuen Jahr wollen wir euch natürlich wieder extraordinäre Gehäuse vorstellen respektive testen und Fractal Design stand schon lange auf unserem Wunschzettel, nun hat es endlich geklappt. Dieses noch recht junge Unternehmen aus Schweden ist in Skandinavien seit 2007 sehr erfolgreich und hat im letzten Jahr den Sprung nach Deutschland und seinen heiß umkämpften Gehäuse-Markt gewagt. Fractal Design konnte dann 2010 einige Achtungserfolge mit ihren Produkten erzielen, darunter waren auch ausgesprochen funktionelle und erstklassig durchkonstruierte Gehäuse, insofern war unser Interesse eine logische Konsequenz.
Der neue Define XL Big-Tower ist in diesem Review unser Thema: das sehr geräumige und betont dezent designte Gehäuse möchte mit geräuscharmen Lüftern, gedämmten Gehäusepartien, hoher Alltagstauglichkeit, manigfaltiger Ausstattung, einer äußerst stabilen Statik und einem bezahlbaren Preis Punkte sammeln. Ob und vor allem wie dies in der Praxis gelungen ist, erfahrt ihr in unserem neuesten Gehäuse-Review, dazu wünschen wir euch viel Vergnügen...
Today we are going to look at the Fractal Design Define XL Case which is designed to keep noise to a minimum. The ‘XL’ part of the cases’ name is certainly reflective of the size of the case which is quite a lot larger than the other £100+ cases we’ve looked at recently.
Lian Li is a maker of super high quality aluminium PC chassis, for most these are considered too expensive for a gaming PC. Well Lian Li also make PC cases made of steel and plastic to the same high standards and also share their innovations and patents, but market them under the name Lancool. Recently Lancool launched three new cases in the First Knight series aimed at the gaming market and Benchmark Reviews has the Lancool First Knight PC-K63 computer chassis on hand for testing. The PC-K63 is entirely tool free and has a fully painted black interior, the motherboard standoffs come pre installed and thumbscrews are used where there is no tool free mechanism. Patented tool free solutions are; tool free PSU clamp, tool free HDD/SSD rubber mounting grommets and an excellent HDD/SSD mounting cage, tool free ODD latch mechanism and finally tool free PCI backplane clamps. The Lancool First Knight PC-K63 case has a massive transparent window and very! bright LED fans that light up the inside while they cool your components. In the back is a very good cable routing solution that will help advanced and novice PC builders alike to easily route cables out of sight...
Looking for a case that looks kinda like the leader of the Autobots? Look no further than the Optimus 1200 by Ikonik. It's got all the things you need to get your new rig going.
In many ways, computer cases are much like people. They come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors... Some are practical, while others are just about useless... And just like people, some cases are just plain ugly. This article is going to take a look at ten cases we've deemed to be at the top of the list when it comes to unattractive appearances.
A few weeks ago I received a random e-mail from a company I haven't heard from before, but I am always eager to look at what new companies can bring to the market. I was informed of this company named Coonix who has been, for a while now, building OEM components for well known manufacturers. They are based out of City of Industry, California. After a fair bit of time with the OEM business, Coonix developed their own branding. So let me cordially introduce them to the US market.
Zalman is no stranger to what PC enthusiasts want in a product. The Z9 Plus computer case aims to please with attractive features at an attractive price. Zalman has included such features as a 2 channel fan controller and temperature display built into the 4 USB front I/O panel. The Z9 Plus supports up to 7 system fans, as well as up to 290mm video cards for your convenience. Will this newest Mid-Tower ATX Case, the Z9 Plus live up to the Zalman name of performance and quality? Benchmark Reviews is pleased to have one of the first looks at this new chassis.
Back in 2008 Lian Li launched a new case with a unique design. The PC-X2000 was a full tower chassis with interesting design tweaks such as side mounted optical drives and multiple hot swap bays along the base of the system. Time and the market moves on though and their competitors have launched models with new design goals such as bottom mounted PSU, multiple USB 3.0 etc so it was time for a refresh from Lian Li. Today we have the result of that work on our test bench, the X2000F brings Lian Li's high end chassis right up to date while refining the design. Let's find out if it meets the needs of consumers in 2011.
Cooler Master's HAF 912 has proven to be a worthy addition to the HAF legacy, providing a budget, mid-tower chassis entry into the series with design elements and features seldom found in its price niche. While users will need to add a fan or two to make it live up to its “High Air Flow” moniker, the 912 is a very able chassis in other respects.
The LuxuRay from Enermax is an affordable mid-tower case with a really fancy front fan. Let's see if it is a good buy.
