Positives:
+ Edges folded neatly, little danger of cuts.
+ Space for more than three disks, a long graphics card and two optical drives - "squeeze" all without.
+ Many ways to install fans.
+ Cable guide on the back of the mainboard possible.
+ Power Supply can be installed with fan down (vacuum cleaner principle) or upwards (pointing into the housing).
+ White visor available as an option to hide black optical drives.
+ The included fan is very quiet (but not ball bearings)
Disadvantages:
- If you build the power supply to the ventilation down, remains straight times 1-2cm air under the housing to suck precisely this. The case must therefore necessarily (!) Be placed on a flat, plan and especially dust-free surface. Carpet does not work!
- To clean the lower ventilation grille, the housing must be completely entkabelt and flipped; must to clean the front fan grill always the front bezel, which is, however, attached with plastic clips. This goes some times good, but the service life of the housing is thus already limited from the outset on a few years or "cleaning cycles".
- The front USB sockets are placed very unfavorable at the top
- The A-button is sometimes hakelig
If you can live with the disadvantages and a low-priced chic Case studied in white, which does not have to hold for eternity, will be quite happy with the Shinobi.
Do not forget even choose the trim and a logo in the favorite color, there are many different colors.
Alternatives:
Significantly better quality in this segment has fractal design, but also to the corresponding charge.
