Raidmax...a strong name for a company! Oddly enough the two cases being
reviewed today represent more of what a mainstream local computer shop would
offer, but why review something so "mainstream" on a website such as ClubOC? Well,
let me be the first to tell you that after thoroughly looking these cases over
in depth I find that Raidmax has performed an incredible job in regards to build
quality and design with their case line. When was the last time you could buy a
low budget case, and actually try and scratch the paint on it but couldn't?
Sound more like buying a new car with 30 clear coats for protection. Yes the
Raidmax finish quality is that good, no joke.
Other than the fit and finish I believe that there is some good design going
into the 2 cases we shall review today at ClubOC, but the fit and finish is so
incredible I figured I would get that out of the way first. Raidmax is also
courteous enough to not charge you an arm and a leg for these kind of cases,
which is precisely why they fit into their category of high-quality cases for
those on a budget. Or simply put for a starving web reviewer such as myself who
is looking for a good case to put together a cheap game server, and test box. :D
