Linus Tech Tips coverage of Computex 2013 is powered by Western Digital. Our
0:04
trusted gaming gear partner is Corsair Vengeance and our trusted retail partner
0:08
is ncx.com. Hey guys, we were just walking
0:12
around trying to check out some booths that we might not have heard of before. And we walked by John. I was interested
0:16
because their cases actually looked really, really nice and you can tell right away that there's a lot of
0:21
aluminium going on here. And after talking to the guy, I realized that
0:24
these guys have OEM stuff for Scythe and Fractal Design and are thinking of
0:28
possibly OEM OEMing stuff for Roseill. That is really interesting as we've done
0:33
videos in the past for Fractal and we've done tons of reviews for Fractal. So,
0:36
it's cool to see who is OEMing some of their products. This case is really,
0:40
really nice. It incorporates aluminum alloy and it incorporates steel. There's
0:44
a power supply up here actually as the power cable gets plugged in the back and
0:48
then gets passed through all the way along here through a fairly stealthy
0:51
cable then through to the back to this power supply which keeps the case very
0:55
very small and very very tight and good-looking. There's fan filters as he
0:59
just showed me on these fans down at the bottom which is great because fan
1:02
filters make cleaning and maintaining your case very very easy. Tons of space
1:06
down on the bottom, which is great if you're going to have a home theater system, something like that, where it's
1:10
very possibly going to be on the floor and you need intakes to be able to actually intake a lot of air. Some cases
1:14
that are sitting directly on the floor. The fans at the bottom are pretty much
1:18
not able to do anything. You can see there's actually a lot of room in this
1:22
fairly small case for big coolers. Like I said earlier, they OEM for scythe
1:25
sometimes. So, this is a massive scythe cooler. B-roll just hit me in the head
1:29
again. I'm going to have to get him back for that. So, this is just a very, very
1:32
cool case. And I really wanted to show you guys this because of how they OEM
1:36
for Fractal. If I can get B-roll. No, never mind. He's turning the case for me. This is the back of the case. I'm
1:41
going to turn it a little bit more. As you can see, they have nice mounting
1:44
spots for 2 and 12 in drives and a fairly good amount of cable room. This
1:48
is too small of a case and there's too many cables for me to really get the palm test going on, but there's
1:53
definitely a lot of room. You won't have any trouble with 24 pin cables as you
1:56
see right here. And because of the position of the hard drives, as you can
2:00
see, it's very, very easy to route your cables. They don't have SATA data cables
2:04
plugged in, but those will not be a big deal because you can route them through here and have them go up the side just
2:08
like they did. They've done a great job cable managing this and it is a very
2:12
easily cable manageable case. We're not going to check out all their stuff
2:15
because I don't want the video to get too long, but I just really wanted to show you guys this because it's very,
2:19
very interesting. Right. As I was about to leave, he showed me a very, very cool
2:22
feature that I couldn't leave without seeing. To take off the side panel, it
2:26
flips out like that on both sides. That looks so cool. That's a really
2:31
interesting way of taking off side panels. And as we normally have just the
2:34
normal kind of slide back one where sometimes you have problems fitting it
2:38
if there's too many cables or something. That slides in, clips in very nicely and
2:42
is a very cool way of putting on your side panel. So this time actually thank
