Aerocool’s Strike-X series mid-tower PC cases have now begun selling in Europe where they will retail for prices starting at 34.99 EUR ($46 US), making them some of the most budget-friendly gaming PC enclosures around.

The series includes two models, the Strike-X One and Strike-X One Advance, both of these featuring a steel structure and black interiors.

In fact, most of the specs of Aerocool’s cases are identical, except from the front-panel port configuration and the number of pre-fitted fans.

The Strike-X One has an I/O panel with two USB 2.0 ports, and is equipped with one 120mm rear fan, while the Strike-X One Advance comes with two USB 3.0 ports, a 120mm rear fan, and a front 120mm fan with red LEDs.

If additional cooling is required, the Strike-X cases can be loaded with a maximum of 9 fans (120mm and/or 140mm) which are placed throughout the case.

In addition, both of these chassis can be fitted with water cooling systems thanks to a pair of pre-drilled holes placed in the back, while a 240mm radiator can be installed in the top of the case.

As far as storage is concerned, 10 drive bays are available. These are split into two drive cages, one holding up to four 5.25-inch ODDs or fan controllers, while the latter supports six 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch storage drives.

Other features include support for both micro-ATX and full-ATX motherboards, a pre-drilled hole for easy access to the CPU mounting bracket, cable management channels, a PSU dust filter, and support for GPUs up to 400mm (15.7-inch) in length.

Both the Strike-X One and the Strike-X One Advance should reach retails around Europe soon, Aerocool’s MSRPs being set at 34.99 EUR and 39.99 EUR ($46 and $53 US), respectively.
