Coolermaster are one of my all time favourite chassis manufacturers, they’ve made some of the most iconic chassis of several PC generations that include the ATCS & ATCS 840 with the slide out motherboard tray, the incredible HAF range and the titan god that is the Cosmos II. Yet while many people regard Coolermaster for their high performance products, they’re also great at making budget friendly models such as the N200 which we reviewed recently, a chassis that I think is the absolutely best budget small chassis ever made!
So with Coolermasters history and of course the new N200 review, I have high hopes for the N400 and I’d love to see a repeat performance of the N200 here today. As you can see from the specifications below it packs plenty of features, including some interesting cooling options, so let’s get straight to the good stuff and take a closer look at what Coolermaster and the N400 have to offer.

Fractal Design est une des rares marques à considérer le format Micro ATX pour ses boitiers. Aujourd'hui, nous allons donc vous proposer le test d'un tel modèle, avec le Arc Mini R2 ; un boitier qui devrait convaincre les derniers sceptiques de passer à ce format qui permet tant maintenant.

NZXT are one of the all time greatest chassis manufacturers and right now they have one of the most impressive product lines on the market that offers some seriously high end feature sets to the enthusiast market. Yet while all the attention may go towards their high end, high price solutions such as the Phantom 820 or the more recent H630, NZXT have not forgotten about the more budget friendly end of the market.
We recently reviewed the H630, a high performance product with some of the best build quality and sound proofing I’ve ever seen in a chassis design, easily one of the top 10 best chassis available to this date in my opinion. The chassis we are looking at today is effectively the little brother of that chassis and the H230 aims to offer a less expensive solution for those who want a stylish and silent mid tower chassis design, but still want the sleek styling that NZXT are renowned for in their higher end models.
Obviously I’m not expecting this to be as great as the H630, but it will be interesting to see just how much the H230 has to offer for £59.00 vs the H630 which costs £129.99.

While Cooler Master has been manufacturing various computer peripherals for many years, they are constantly looking at the market and designing new cases to fit various needs. Recently, they have introduced a new line of cases, the “N” series. So far there are three cases in this series, the N200, N400 and N600. Legit Review recently took a look at the N400, now we will be taking a look at the N600.

I have always been a fan of Corsair cases. Corsair just gets it, their cases are elegant and don’t have any of the extras that users will simply not use. The Obsidian Series is the top of the line case series from Corsair and today we are taking a look at the Obsidian Series 350D case. The idea of this case is simple, take all of the best parts of the very popular 800D and 900D cases and put that into a micro ATX case. Micro ATX builds are great as many micro ATX motherboards offer the same features as full sized ATX motherboards, yet take up less space. This means a smaller case to lug around to LAN parties. Is the Corsair Obsidian Series 350D case perfect for your next micro ATX build? Read on as we find out!

NZXT has dabbled in quiet cases before (Hush, H2). While I don’t personally have experience with those particular chassis, I’ve gathered the attempts in the past have left consumers wanting. It appears a revived Phantom line has also provided another opportunity for NZXT Technologies to tackle the “silent” segment once again – can NZXT bring the H series of chassis to new levels with the H630 Silent Ultra Tower Computer Case? Benchmark Reviews has a chance to answer this question.

We liked the Aerocool XPredator X3 chassis. It has a design that stands out from the crowd, without overdoing it. The shell-like vents on the top help the cooling, and look neat. It doesn't lack in features, the build quality and finish are good and the plastic is of decent quality. For this price point, the XPredator X3 provides everything you expect. The fan controllers are a nice extra, along with the external 2.5-inch dock.

We’re big fans of the Corsair Carbide series here at eTeknix, from the products we’ve seen in the range so far it seems that Corsair cannot put a foot wrong and their design team seem to be at the top of their game, producing one excellent product after another. This much seems to be true of much of the Corsair product range in recent years, taking a look at their Vengeance products you’ll find award winning memory modules, gaming mice and keyboards, their entire chassis range is full of high quality solutions and their CPU coolers are some of the most popular on the market, so I think its safe to say that I have high expectations for the 330R, it has a strong reputation to uphold.
Priced at around £75 the 330R isn’t exactly cheap, or at least that’s a higher than average price for a mid-tower and that means that we’ll be expecting premium quality to match the premium price tag, but with steel construction, sound proofing material pre-installed, two high quality pre-installed fans, USB 3.0 support and more it looks like Corsair might be able to deliver the premium features we are looking for.

Today for review I have a case or chassis from Cooler Master called the HAF XB. This is a smaller style case, what might be called a lanbox but it’s not just for gaming of course as you can use it for anything. What makes the HAF XB really special is the fact that it also doubles as a test bench. Me, being a reviewer, can very much appreciate a tech bench as it makes life easier for testing products. Just because it’s a test bench doesn’t mean that the average user can’t use it, in fact being a test bench allows you to fully open it up and get inside making installation of you system just that much easier. The HAF XB is small in size but it’s got a lot of room inside thanks to the excellent design of it. The HAF XB allows you to use even the largest video cards and you can easily fit three of them inside for a nice gaming system. The case comes with two fans pre-installed but there is room for more if you need more cooling, and the case can be used with liquid cooling as well or any combination thereof. It’s from Cooler Master so you know it’s a quality made case, and that HAF XB is that and more. The case is very well designed to maximize all of the available space and still make it easy to install even the highest end systems in it. So read on for a rather lengthy review of the HAF XB…

Das Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 PC-Gehäuse fällt nicht nur durch seine besondere Schlichtheit auf, sondern vor allem durch die großen Mesh Flächen auf der Oberseite und der Front, die für einen extrem hohen Airflow sorgen und dank Staubfilter sehr leicht gereinigt werden können.
Fractal Design liefert den Arc R2 Midi-Tower mit einem Acrylfenster, USB 3.0 Ports, drei leisen 140mm R2 Lüftern mit 3-stufiger Lüftersteuerung und das Gehäuse kann so umgebaut werden, daß ein Dual Radiator in dem Gehäuse Platz findet.
Der Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 Test wird zeigen, ob das Gehäuse in der Praxis überzeugen kann.
