The Xigmatek Zest is one hefty chassis that throws RGBs at us in every possible way: by embedding them into two 200 mm fans, the company logo, and a third fan in the rear, just for good measure. It looks like a sleek and large case that promises to handle any hardware.

The Cooler Master Mastercase H500 represents the base mass-market model at the center of the H-series. With a price tag of around $100 versus $200 or more for the fancier variants, the classic H500 comes with a well-rounded set of features and retains the main design elements of the series very well. As such, you would never have to feel bad for having gone for the less elaborate option.

The Antec P101 Silent turns back the wheel of time a little bit by offering an old-school interior layout coupled with a modern feature set and compatibility.

The Masterbox Q500L is a compact chassis that still allows for a full-size ATX board. However, that is not what makes it unique.

The Aerocool Tor aims to deliver a pretty cool feature set for the gaming enthusiast.

The FSP CMT340 is not just a smaller version of the CMT510.

Fractal Design has finally joined the RGB craze with the Define S2 Vision.
