Xigmatek today rolled out the Glare 7A, an ATX mid-tower chassis featuring tempered glass chassis along the front and left side panel, characterized by its rounded-rectangle front glass panel. The case features a contemporary horizontal dual-compartment layout, with the upper compartment housing the motherboard tray with room for graphics cards up to 39 cm in length, and CPU coolers up to 16 cm in height. There's also room in this compartment for two 2.5-inch drives along the partition.

The bottom compartment of the Xigmatek Glare 7A houses the PSU, and two 3.5-inch drive trays (which can each hold 2.5-inch drives). Cooling includes three 120 mm front intakes, three 120 mm top exhausts, and a 120 mm rear exhaust. Xigmatek includes four red LED lit fans, three factory-fitted along the front intakes, and one along the rear exhaust. The four are plugged into the case's very own multi-channel fan-controller. The case measures 200 mm x 452 mm x 495 mm (WxDxH). Front panel connectivity includes two each of type-A USB 3.0 and USB 2.0/1.1 ports, and HDA audio jacks. The company didn't reveal pricing.

looks nice start but they miss the detail, thick plastic on front and top, why they make a hole on the shroud? it much better to put that behind the shroud, can they re-route the front cables behind something?
