14 DAY TRIAL // Eager to offer gamers and enthusiasts an enclosure large enough for any sort of desktop motherboards and graphics cards of any length, Aerocool is preparing the PGS B Series XPredator full tower.
With all the dual-slot and even triple-slot video boards that have been cropping up, especially with some of them having a PCB that is longer than what some cases can accommodate, it is quite tricky to set up multi-GPU configurations.
Basically, to successfully combine such boards, one needs a motherboard with sufficient PCI Express slots and enough distance between them.
This, by extension, implies that the casing of the system needs to be spacious enough, and Aerocool definitely delivered with the XPredator.
This chassis is made of steel and measures 600 (H) x 234 (W) x 555 (D) mm while also featuring various assets.
For instance, it has tool-free installation for the 5.25-inch and 2.5-inch drives, as well as for the PCI cards.
Secondly, a motherboard cut-out will let CPU coolers be easily set, although four pre-drilled holes will ensure that enthusiasts can resort to watercooling if they so desire.
Of course, for those that are fine with air cooling, multiple fans can be added, and Aerocool even went as far as to implement a fan controller capable of controlling up to six fans at once.
Two such fans are already included, one on the front and one at the back, both of which use orange LEDs, run at 750 RPM and measure 230 x 200 mm.
Furthermore, the company did not forget about the I/O panel, which is placed on the top and provides three USB 2.0 ports, eSATA, audio/mic and even a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 connector.
Set to start shipping this month in Europe, the PGS B series XPredator will be colored black on the inside and outside, for 139.90 Euro. There will also be a so-called Evil Black Edition, with a black/orange color scheme.
