The prodigy M combines the mATX interior of the Phenom M with the portability of the original Prodigy. Doing so is no easy task as gamers would want to take advantage of all the interior features for multi-GPU setups, liquid cooling, or an external drive bay. We take a look at the green variant, but you may pick from among many different colors if this one is not to your liking.

I was considering the Prodigy for a mini-itx build but the Metis was only $35 at NCIX so I got that instead.

Why is this featured in latest reviews when its been done in 2014? Guess somebody is being paid for an add spot.

So? Last I check the domain ended in .com...which means commercial and the overall amount tpu pushes commerce is really on the low side. The review is good and I have built 3 rigs using those cases, all of which have been great to work with.

FYI, we didnt pay TPU anything... :p

No idea why the review showed up now, I guess the author was busy, and he probably thought the other cases he had for a review were more interesting?
Fair enough, since prodigy M is a re-launch with 4 new colors and window sidepanel, but not a brand new case :)

The original review was edited to include details of the Prodigy M.
That would have been sufficient to make it a new review.
Externally it looks good, but I cant see the point of the large side window if half of the internal view is obscured by the internal panel where hard drives can be mounted.
Surely that should have been left out and drives mounted behind the motherboard!
