ENERMAX Introduces ENERMAXK8, a Sleek Mid-Tower ATX PC Case

btarunr · Mar 26, 2024

ENERMAX, an industry-leading force dedicated to designing high-performance computer hardware and cooling solutions, introduces its latest mid-tower ATX PC case series, ENERMAXK8, boasting a sleek and sophisticated design. Featuring a sophisticated front panel design and robust construction, the ENERMAXK8 exudes a contemporary aesthetic with its tempered glass front and side panels, offering a sleek showcase for the internal components of your build. Equipped with three pre-installed ARGB PWM fans and a built-in 6-port control hub, users can seamlessly synchronize their ARGB components with the system lighting effects using either motherboard ARGB software or the 21 built-in lighting presets.

ENERMAXK8 incorporates clever design elements for convenient system assembly. It features a built-in fan bracket within the front panel, allowing users to effortlessly install three 120 mm fans on one side of the bracket and a 360 mm radiator for an AIO cooler on the opposite side. The included thumb screws can further simplify the installation process. Front panel connectivity options are one USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type C port and one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A port.

ENERMAXK8 is available in both black and white versions. As part of our latest product launch campaign exclusively for the European market, customers can now purchase ENERMAXK8 from ALTERNATE and receive an additional CPU AIO cooler, the LIQMAXFLO series, at a special promotional price.

We are now in an era where a simple steel or aluminium case would be more innovative and "sophisticated".

Like those awesome Lian Li PC V1000 cases? Or the PC6077 with the removable tray?

Those cases I loved. Heck, even the tower chenbro cases or Tigerdirects Ultra brand cases were nice.

Silverstone had some unique cases that were nice but are either hard to get now, stupid expensive or can't get at all.

Nope, we are in an era where, with a few notable exceptions, all so-called "NEW" cases are practically identical, as in same-ole-same-same-lame-lame-boring AF-no-design-effort-whatsoever rectangular boxen from yesteryear...

You're welcome

Cutting off the cases biggest inlet with the fugly angled plastic piece was a terrible design choice. Apparently Enermax missed the memo about airflow=good.

*looks at front panel* Uh...ahem...Enermax...you probably shouldn't cover the front like that. Airflow GOOD!

Dear lawd, could you guys imagine - bear with me here -- a 4090 + 14900KS in this thing? Only good thing would be that it would make for an excellent air-fryer - whip yourself up some pizza rolls without even having to leave your desk! :roll:

I can, it doesn't take much imaginitive power, but it should be totally obvious, that not every single PC case is ideal for uber high-end hardware.

Not to mention that if you have dollars in thousands range for a CPU and GPU only, you'll have enough money (and brain power) to buy an adequate accomodation and cooling for them.
