New case from Gigabyte - 3d Aurora
Has anyone seen this new case from Gigabyte?

Has kind of a nice look to it and uses three 120 mm fans; Also special pass-through ports on the back for watercooling. Might be interesting. Big opening on the side panel to let air in and noise out, though.

It looks very interesting. As for the side panel, that can easily be covered up with, say, acoustic dampening foam!
My only complaint is the front intake and how the cover for it juts out so much. Can cause noise to leak out, as the bigger vents are on the sides. If Gigabyte made the cover for the intake match the style of the door, then it would look better.

I like it. I wonder how the build quality is though.Anodyne wrote:Has anyone seen this new case from Gigabyte?

A bit large for my taste, though I can see using it as a workgroup server chassis. If you look this up on the Gigabyte website, it even includes a "Discretely located internal toolbox ideal for storage."
