The XPG Defender uses the same body as the Pro variant, but ships with a metal mesh front and non-ARGB fans. More affordable thus, pricing aligns with what you get in regards to the I/O and 2.5" hard-drive mounting methods. You actually end up with a lot of case for the money, especially as an E-ATX user.
The teenage engineering computer-1 is not meant to be a detached chassis. Instead, with its unique flat-packed design and the need to bend and build it yourself, the result is a fused, single unit that provides the functionality you need, and after going through the whole experience of unpacking and building it, the result is mesmerizing.
The Cruiser is a more affordable "Super Mid-Tower" chassis from XPG. Even so, it still offers that super-sized space and bulk, three retail-grade ARGB fans, and a refreshing focus on solid engineering on the outside and down-to-earth and useful functionality on the inside to ensure your build will cruise along without a hiccup.
The InWin Airforce is the flat-packed vision of an ATX chassis from InWin. While available in a more subtle "Phantom Black," the colorful "Justice White" variant really brings home that modular aspect and results in a functional and spacious, albeit slightly simple chassis that could just be worth the whole assembly experience in the end.
The InWin Explorer comes flat-packed, requiring assembly, which makes for a unique unboxing and fun "hands-on" experience. Available in two equally unique color options, it is clearly not aimed at the traditional gamer, but may just be a memorable build for young teens gifted their first gaming PC.
The SilverStone SETA Q1 features a uniquely shaped front panel that acts as a "sound maze" to reduce noise, while employing sound damping materials all around. With its big dimensions, it can hold large motherboards and all major air coolers, PSUs, or graphics cards without breaking a sweat, or should we say while staying cool and calm?
The Cooler Master NR200P has already managed to make its mark, spawning the Max variant due to its success. With that, Cooler Master has released four consumer-voted color options of the NR200P to add that splash of extravagance to what turns out to be an already excellent ITX chassis.
The Thermaltake Divider 300 TG Air takes the first launched case of the Divider line and replaces the front with a vented steel panel and simpler fan configuration. Also featuring the signature split side panel design, it uses exactly the same body as the original and is available in white, too.
The Sharkoon Elite Shark CA700 is the biggest and most elaborate of the entire Elite Shark series. Considered Sharkoon's take on a premium case where uniqueness is front and center, the Elite Shark CA700 hopes to impress with a high part count, elaborate design, and functionality worthy of the highest-end components.
The Thermaltake Divider 200 TG Air is the airflow version of the Divider 200 TG. It replaces the glass front with a uniquely designed, vented steel panel. While an mATX chassis for the Divider family, it looks vastly different from the 300 or 500 series due to its uniquely stacked internal layout and cube shape.
The Deepcool CG560 is a clean, wide, and spacious chassis. With its vented front and four-fan loadout, it aims to provide ample airflow out of the box, and its cool green USB 3.0 ports and few unique tooling elements make it stand out, but does it deliver where it counts?
The Montech Air 1000 Lite is a really interesting chassis since the brand is known for pushing the price-performance barrier while including new engineering and keeping functionality in mind. Let's see if the Air 1000 Lite manages to impress or is nothing but hot air.
The Thermaltake Divider 200 TG fills the mATX gap in the Divider family of enclosures, but looks vastly different from the 300 or 500 series. With its stacked internal layout and cube shape in combination with the Divider's design elements, the Divider 200 TG is rather unique right out of the gate.
The Antec Draco 10 is an mATX chassis aiming to deliver cool looks and a clean design with a bit of ARGB bling for those on a tight budget. While affordably priced, it still provides dual USB 3.0 as well as very good liquid-cooling capabilities, so it does seem to have a few aces up its sleeve.
The Thermaltake Core series is a fairly unique enclosure family. Belonging to it, the Core P6 aims to provide users with everything possible. Having room for up to nine storage drives, four radiators, and the biggest hardware components, as well as the flair of being wall-mountable or an open-air frame, it has it all.
The SilverStone Alta G1M allows for an mATX board while offering enough room for a 360 mm radiator or potent air-cooling setup alongside a long graphics card. With its unique layout and compact shape, you should have no issues placing the chassis on your desk the same as you would much smaller cases out there.
Do you like the functional and spacious layout of the Divider 500 with its split window design, but also care about airflow? The Divider 500 TG Air will fit that bill perfectly. Alongside the unique core design, the metal panel's vent shape is not only different, but also surprisingly good-looking.
The NZXT H510 Flow is based on the original H510, but offers a re-engineered front panel to solve the issue of airflow and thermal performance that was the Achilles heel of the original variant. Besides that, the case stays true to the same design and tooling, giving us a little blast from the past with hopes of remaining relevant today—two years later.
The Lian Li Q58 is the company's take on a modern ITX enclosure. Aiming to walk the line between ventilation and providing windows to view your hardware, the Q58 features split panels that swing open. On top of that, you may opt for large AIO cooling or an ATX PSU as well, making the Q58 a beautiful and versatile option.
The ITX-sized Cooler Master NR200P MAX is a slightly larger version of the NR200P. The additional room is used to house a 280 mm AIO, while also including an 850W SFX power supply. This makes the NR200P MAX one of few ITX enclosures that takes the guesswork of getting the best-possible cooling setup out of the equation.
The Lian Li O11 Air Mini is not simply a vented version of the original O11 Dynamic Mini. Instead, Lian Li has taken the opportunity to tweak the case to offer better PSU support, more storage options, and a wider body for greater radiator support. All this makes the new Lian Li O11 Air Mini somewhat of a successor in many ways.
The Hyte Revolt 3 is a compact ITX chassis with a handle, and a holder for your headphone. Even though small, the internal layout centers around the ability to hold a 280 mm AIO as well as a long, beefy GPU, making this both a unique and interesting choice for those looking to build a compact high-performance gaming rig.
The Fractal Design Torrent is an all-new chassis with a unique internal layout and the ability to easily hold even the largest air coolers out there. Add plenty of space for custom loops and five intake fans, two of which are 180 mm, and the Torrent could be the breeze of fresh air Fractal Design needs.
The Montech X3 Mesh comes with a whopping six LED-illuminated fans pre-installed. With its compact dimensions, all black or white color choices, and interesting price point, the X3 Mesh could be the go-to case for those looking for an affordable high airflow chassis.
G.Skill's entry into the ITX chassis market looks rather unique with the tapered front. While not the first to offer bent glass, the Z5i sports quite the tight bending radius with its panels being the core design element. Read on to find out how the G.Skill Z5i enclosure fares against all the established brands out there.
