It's not just PC power-supplies, ADATA is also taking a swing at the premium gaming case market with two new XPG branded ATX mid-tower cases, the XPG Battlecruiser and the XPG Invader. The Battlecruisier is clearly the more airy and 'revealing' of the two, with 4 mm-thick tempered glass making up the front, top, and left-side panels, large intake vents for the front fans, and a horizontal partition that can be collapsed in two parts for extra room to put your DIY liquid cooling components. The case has room for motherboards as long as E-ATX, add-on cards up to 40 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 17.5 cm in height. There are 7 expansion slots located conventionally, and two vertical slots so you can show off your graphics card better. Six 2.5-inch and three 3.5-inch drive mounts complete its storage area, while you get room for 360 mm (or smaller) radiators along the front and top panels. The front-panel I/O includes a USB type-C, which should be the hallmark of any good case launched after 2017.

The XPG Invader is the more compact case of the two, and has a more restrained styling. It comes in black and white+black color options. You only get tempered glass along the right-side panel, with the front being shrouded in metal, with side-vents for the intake fans. The top panel has a grille with a detachable magnetized dust filter. The motherboard tray has room for ATX (and smaller) motherboards, add-on cards up to 40 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 17 cm in height. Four 2.5-inch and two 3.5-inch bays make up the storage area. Ventilation includes three 120 mm intakes, two 120 mm top exhausts, and a 120 mm rear exhausts. Accordingly, you can mount 360 mm x 120 mm radiators up front, and 240 mm radiators up top. Front-panel I/O includes USB 3.0 and HDA, but no type-C ports here.
