BitFenix launches the new ENSO MESH Case
Same award-winning design - now available with a mesh front! Originally released this time last year, the BitFenix ENSO was dubbed an extremely stylish midi tower offering both tempered glass and fully integrated addressable RGB lighting at a fantastic price point. It's now back, with a fully redesigned MESH front panel and with increased fan capacity. The new MESH panel is perfect for builds featuring overclocked components which demand additional cooling support, but without the need to compromise on the sleek design. Featuring a quick release mechanism and magnetic lock, it's also hassle-free to keep clean.BitFenix ENSO MESH at a glance:

10 Comments on BitFenix launches the new ENSO MESH Case
I actually like the look of the case.
Glad to see them getting back into the game, but wish they would have looked far enough ahead to put USB-C on the front I/O panel :)
