Today CHIEFTEC introduces the Scorpion 3 White Edition, an ATX Tower Gaming Case. Building on the trusted foundation of the Chieftec Scorpion 3, the new white version will offer gamers wanting a case to stand out from the crowd the ideal selection, without giving up on quality, functionality and compatibility of a fully compatible ATX case. 2x 3.5" HDD, 2x 2.5" SSD, long graphics cards support, top radiator support, as well as easy cable management are all features, which users can count on.

With the well-received aesthetics of 4x A-RGB pre-installed rainbow fans (Chieftec Tornado Fans) that can be controlled via M/B Sync thanks to the included controller hub or independently via remote control, as well as the tempered glass front and side panels, the Scorpion 3 White will offer an unmistakably unique style.



Available: October 2021. For more information, visit the product page.

For some reason, I was always partial to Chieftec. Going by the specs, they always seem just your average case. Yet somehow it always felt like they build things to last.
I know this is highly subjective, I have only owned one case (lasted me over 10 years, I still have it stashed away), but this is how I feel.

This particular case looks like one of Enermax cases launched few years back. Same factory or maybe a rebadge.

Well, it doesn't say "all white", it just says "white edition".

Key word, used to. I used to like them too, but this just looks naff.

You'll have to add me to the list. Although....I wouldn't give this current offering a second look.

At the initial glance, the first word that popped into my head?

Painful.

Best,

Liquid Cool
