    Is this chassis better than its older brother?

    Full aluminium construction, true tool less design, spacious interiors, good cooling

    Expensive, not a full tower case

Design and Construction:





The size of the case is relatively similar to the PC-K62 and it also has a very similar styling from the outside with slight variations. This too, is a mid-tower chassis but unlike it's cheaper brother, this one is made entirely of aluminium with a brushed anodised aluminium finish seen throughout the casing. This not only makes it lighter but also more durable and prone to rust in the long run, which is important in a country like ours. The bottom is fitted with a red LED 120mm fan that spins at 1200RPM.





There's a very generous side panel window with a funky looking dragon on it. This window has an etching of the AMD badge on it and the dragon is embossed on the aluminium panel which means it will last longer. 





At the rear, we have a slightly faster spinning 120mm fan (1500RPM) for the exhaust. Below, we can see provision for water cooling and eight expansion bays.




After removing the top cover, we have two pre-installed 140mm red LED fans that spin at a much lower 1000RPM. These fans, like the rest, are easily removable by just sliding them over to one side and unhooking them. There's no need for a screwdriver for this as well. The brushed aluminium finish is generously applied to every nook and cranny of the chassis as well, which gives it a premium feel.
