BitFenix Pandora mATX Case Review - PAGE 1

BitFenix has taken another step in case design with the introduction of the Pandora series of micro-tower cases. Using brushed aluminum sides that curve around the front of the case, the Pandora presents the user with a modern looking design. These two curved aluminum side panels leave an opening in the front of the case for an transparent black plastic with no openings to disturb the clean styling.

What is not evident is that hidden behind the black front panel is another innovation from BitFenix dubbed the ICON. It is a 2.4” programmable TFT LCD that the user can use to display a unique graphic. This small footprint computer with styling can be used a media center that you won't be inclined to hide somewhere.

The Pandora series incorporates features such as cable management to keep cable clutter to a minimum, direct air flow to keep computer components cool, and easy to remove air filters to facilitate cleaning. Even with a slim design there is room to mount two 2.5” SSDs and three 3.5” HDDs out of the way while allowing for installation of graphic cards up to 350mm in length and even 240mm AIO water coolers.

BitFenix boasts the Pandora Micro-Tower case series as "Style Without Limits." If so, our experience with working with the case, installing computer components, and checking out the programmable ICON LCD should be fun and entertaining.
