BitFenix Colossus

Conclusion

The Colossus was not intended to be a LAN case. It dislikes being shifted around on a regular basis, but it’s something that you’d want to show off to your friends. It’s a laser disco that nobody’s invited to.

It’s cooling problems also mean that it doesn’t work amazingly well as a chassis for home gaming, but it might suffice as an overly snazzy case for a simple media PC, but then it’s too big/expensive for what it contains. It feels like the Colossus isn’t trying to be anything in particular and it’s managed to fail at doing anything at all.

From the day I first saw this case I wanted to own it because of how nice it looked, but in prac
ice it was kind of dire. Aesthetically, it’s beautiful and it does a great job of hiding cables, but that’s all.

When it comes down to it, I recommend this case for anyone who has the spare cash to flaunt on something shiny looking, but if you want a case for gaming then you may want to look into something with better cooling. It looks nice and it’s sturdy, but the price and inefficient cooling let it down.

Pros Cons
Flashy and good looking Loud
USB3.0 in the I/O panel Heavy
Built-in fan controller Not the greatest cooling
External/Internal cable management
