DeepCool Intros the Gamer Storm Genome II Chassis

btarunr · Oct 11, 2016

DeepCool expanded its Gamer Storm line of gamer-centric hardware with the new Genome II chassis with bundled liquid-cooling. This ATX mid-tower builds on the signature "double helix" liquid-cooling ornament in its front-panel that characterized the original Genome liquid-cooling case. The coolant channel of the bundled CPU AIO liquid-cooler, which features a Gamer Storm Captain pump+block assembly and a 360 mm x 120 mm radiator along the top, with three bundled 120 mm fans; passes through an LED-lit acrylic tube along the front-panel, in a double-helical column, which DeepCool refers to as the loop's reservoir. Compared to the original Genome, the Genome II features a more subdued front-door styling,

Inside, the Genome II features a horizontally-partitioned layout, with vast swathes of room for your gear. Its motherboard tray has room for graphics cards as long as 330 mm. The case features 7 expansion slots, and an additional 2 vertical slots with an included PCIe 3.0 x16 riser, for vertical VGA installation. Drive bays include two each of 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch. Besides the included CPU AIO cooler, you get a 240 mm x 120 mm front radiator mount, and a 120 mm rear exhaust. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Loved the looks of that reservoir on the previous model. Too expensive for me probably, and I like my Define R4 enough to not change from this.

This is ideal for Resident Evil themed case.

Loving the idea of the vertical Graphics card mount, allowing it to be displayed.

This case looks exactly like the Genome, I'd like to know what has been changed. The Genome has been on sale for quite a while, and has a reputation of leaking.

While I like this case, I don't like the fact that I am not able to add to the loop! Missed opportunity as 360mm rad is overkill for a simple cpu. being able to add a vga waterblock would make this case much more appealing.
