Very good case for the budget conscious

I bought this case because I wanted to send my old Cooler Master Elite 330 in pension. But since I do not want to necessarily 100 or more to spend on a computer case, I have informed me extensively on the internet and I came across the BitFenix ​​Shinobi, which could convince in virtually all test reports and performed with just 60 as price / performance tip was , So I ordered it to me in order to convince myself whether it is as good as claimed.

And in fact, I am thrilled with this case. It looks very simple, but noble and high quality. And that's it. The build quality is really excellent and the soft-touch finish just feels great, even if it unfortunately attracts fingerprints (which did not bother me). In addition me the paint seems to have been applied very thinly to be (at one point I'm slightly off thrust and because it has already been solved). What I also liked is that the sidewalls do not act like thin sheet (that has bothered me at my old housing), but also make a very solid impression.

In particular, the cable management like that for existing openings are thoughtfully placed. However, the housing has not enough space for it to place all cables, so you have to try around a bit until you get out there as far as that the lid can be close again. Here, however, provides probably a modular power supply Remedy.

In addition, the housing provides ample mounting space for fans. I have a front mounted which sucks the air, a back (which was included) and a top that together blow the air out. And that was really worth it, because the temperatures under load now are 10 ° C lower than before and the PC leibt pleasantly quiet.

But what is the same, I noticed very negative, far too bright power LED, which is good rather than incandescent bulbs replacement in darkened rooms was. Therefore I did not even connected to the motherboard.

All in all I can only recommend this case and it would also buy immediately.
