Sharkoon Technologies is an international supplier of high-quality, high-performance PC components and peripherals. With the RGB Hex, Sharkoon is launching an ATX PC case that is optimized for airflow and has a front panel with a 3D hexagon design, from which the case gets its name. The case, with its conspicuous looks, offers an air-permeable front panel along with six pre-installed RGB LED fans that are all fully addressable. The case is complete with a side panel made of tempered glass and a modern USB Type-C port near the front panel on the top of the case.

The front panel of the RGB Hex not only has a striking design, but it also largely consists of an air-permeable mesh that should ensure a strong intake of cool air. Behind the front panel, three fans draw the air through the mesh grille into the case, while a fan on the rear panel and two on the top are intended to remove the warmed air out of the case. All these pre-installed 120-millimeter fans are equipped with addressable RGB LEDs. Meanwhile, the interior of the case is protected from dust by three dust filters. Anyone who prefers water cooling can install a radiator in the front or the top of the case. Behind the front panel, the radiator can be up to 360 millimeters and have a total height of 6.4 centimeters including the fans. Under the top panel, a radiator with up to 240 millimeters is possible with a total height, including the fans, of 5.5 centimeters.



Spacious Interior for Large Components
As usual for gaming cases, the RGB Hex has a side panel made of tempered glass, through which the user's installed hardware and its illumination can be admired. Accordingly, the ATX case should also offer enough space for powerful hardware components. The case has space for graphics cards up to 35 centimeters in length, CPU coolers up to 15.8 centimeters in height, and power supply units up to 21.5 centimeters in length. Furthermore, there is also space for the installation of up to two 3.5-inch hard drives and up to six SSDs.

Performance When Connecting
The manufacturer Sharkoon has paid attention to performance and ease of use when it comes to the connection options of the RGB Hex. In addition to two USB 3.0 ports, the I/O panel is also equipped with a USB Type-C 3.2 Gen 2 port that enables the use of mobile devices through the PC at a fast data transfer rate of 10 gigabits per second.

Price and Availability
The RGB Hex is now available at the manufacturer's suggested price of 84.90 euros.

Most people arent using hard drives these days unless it is in a NAS.
