Benchmark Reviews


I would definitely recommend this enclosure especially for those on a budget.
The price isn't much higher than cases that have no real cooling options or tool less features.
Other cases try to get your attention with silly lights and cheesy side windows, but still have a very generic and cheap look.
The NV 690 NVIDIA edition makes a bit of a statement without a total generic look while providing good "out of the box" performance.The fans that are included are very quiet while providing decent airflow.

Final Score: 9.05 out of 10.
Excellence Achievement: Benchmark Reviews Golden Tachometer Award.
