MetallicGear is a sub-brand of Phanteks so you may have heard of them, but you'll most likely know Phanteks. Sub-brands are popular for a number of reasons, including expanding a market share, breaking out of a stereotype, research and development, or possibly an acquisition.

Anidees actively listen to feedback from enthusiasts, so, your idea may end up in a future product. Secondly, the AI5S chassis is a good example of the types of design they release.

We reviewed the Anidees AI8 last week and it’s a stellar chassis, excellent for water cooling or anything else you want to put into an unobstructed internal space. Also, what looks to be a genuine principle of end-user feedback to help and evolve Anidees product range, means if you pick these guys up and become a brand fan, you may end up with some class leading products in the not too distant future.

You may have seen it all before, but if you haven’t, there are a lot of computer chassis out there, so which one do you pick? Firstly, you need to forget about your mates, or the flamers and trollers. For the latter groups, they are right about everything, so no matter what you do, it’s wrong. So where does this leave you? Requirements, including budget and style preferences.

Today we have the Nanoxia CoolForce 2 chassis for review. We have already seen the Deep Silence 1 Rev.B chassis from Nanoxia and we recommended it, it’s a very high quality chassis. The CoolForce 2 is aimed at a similar audience, with a number of the Nanoxia design cue’s and features, it’s another enthusiast level chassis with the watercooler fan in mind.

The Cooltek CT GT-04 chassis is part of Cooltek’s gaming tower series of chassis. It comes with some features that some will love, a HDD/SSD caddie and a card reader for Micro-SD and SD cards built in. It also has a fan controller and a smoked window giving the GT-04 some good options out of the box.

Nanoxia are a name you should know, and their Deep Silence chassis already has a following out there in modders land. With that said, it’s hard for a designer and manufacturer of system chassis and other cooling components to make a name for themselves in the shadow of the mainstream corporations.

We are big fans of the mITX form factor, and big fans of the full ATX form factor, but for all those who fancy something a little in between, what about a mATX cube chassis? There are a couple around and the double width internal areas making for interesting system configurations, you'd be a fool to overlook them. Raijintek are a familiar name to most and they have sent over their Aeneas mATX Cube Chassis for review. Good timing, as we are reviewing the EASUS z170M Plus Motherboard and that's an mATX form factor.

We were looking around for a chassis for a gaming build we were thinking about and we figured we needed to think about the NZXT H440. We had picked this for a watercooling build but a change of mind pushed us down a different path on that one. So, we figured this would be perfect for the gaming build and something nice and high spec.

There are probably as many chassis designs and manufacturers out there as mice, surfaces and keyboard, so you would be forgiven if you struggle from time to time when trying to pick a new one. gone are the days of tall or small beige boxes and their horrid green or brown motherboards making PC's as interesting as keyboards used to be and not much more appealing. Now, we have the opposite situation with manufacturers catching up with modders, who to be honest, created the modern fashions along with the overclockers.

When you think of computer chassis you will almost always think of an enclosed chassis. Also, you will more than likely try and balance looks, features, size and air flow. Well, there are some chassis out there that turn the norm on its head, for example the MicroCool Banchetto 101.

Small form factor chassis are fast becoming the modders norm with a full range of well-designed and almost niche market chassis being released. Gone are the days of being exclusive to HTPCs and welcome the days of high powered mITX rigs and Steam Boxes.

Until recent years small form factor chassis have been exclusive to HTPC or small form factor with older small form factor motherboards aimed at office and HTPC users mainly. With the surge in high quality and gaming focused small form factor motherboards, there has been a growing need to design and release an adequate and acceptable counterpart.
