The Cougar Panzer G is the more settled and understated version of the original Panzer. Thanks to the numerous glass panels instead of metal mesh, it also feels like it is of higher quality. Add to that the fact that none of the plastic feels cheap and you have a case that makes an incredibly solid and above-average impression when it comes to build quality.

On the interior, things are just as solid, but in stark contrast with the exterior as things are quite simple here. There are no drive bays, not even ones for hard drives. Instead, Cougar has chosen to utilize plates behind the motherboard tray and the shroud to allow you to add storage units to the chassis, with a total of six such placement possibilities. While this is a very solid number, some may find the limit of two 3.5" drives to be an issue.

Besides that, the Panzer G scores with its solid metal shroud, extremely clean look after assembly due to the offset motherboard, and hard drive plates. If there is one aspect that can be improved, it would be the addition of mounting holes for pumps or reservoirs so that users can really take advantage of all the liquid-cooling possibilities within the Cougar Panzer.

Overall, with a small price premium over the original Panzer variant, the Cougar Panzer G delivers great quality, excellent looks, a functional albeit simple interior, great cable management, and glass panels.
