BitFenix Enso RGB Tempered Glass Case Review
Peter Donnell / 6 years ago
A Closer Look – Exterior
Out of the box, the Enso is a great looking chassis. It features a crystal clear tempered glass panel on the left side, showing off the full interior. Of course, as you can see, there’s a full-size PSU shroud built-in too, helping hide some of the less attractive parts of your install.
The front panel is fixed in place, however, it offers plenty of airflow through some carefully placed edge gaps. Hiding in the side, you’ll find a pair of slide-out dust filters, making cleaning them super easy. The PSU gets some love too, with a slide-out filter on the left side of the chassis, easing your maintenance of the case.
Down the right side, things stay nice and simple. The side panel is made from metal, held in place with two thumbscrews for easy access.
The angular front panel looks pretty basic, but it hides many secrets. The design looks neat and tidy, and rather stealthy too I think.
However, there’s plenty of RGB lighting tucked all the way around each corner, which we’ll see in action shortly.
Speaking of RGB, there’s a built-in RGB controller too. The lighting can be changed using the front I/O button, or via AURA sync on a compatible motherboard; the choice is yours. Of course, you also get power controls, two USB 3.0 ports and audio ports.
More Filters!
Up on the top, you’ll find a magnetic dust filter to keep your airflow nice and clean.
It’s easily removed, allowing you to quickly clean it, as well as install any top mounted cooling.
What’s really neat is that if you want to close it up, another magnetic cover is included to close the vent. This will reduce noise levels from the chassis too, which is nice.
Around the back, there are no surprises. Everything is where it should be, with a 120mm fan mount at the top, reusable expansion slot covers, as well as an ATX PSU mount.
Finally, on the base, you’ll find plenty of clearance and airflow for the PSU. Again, the dust filter slides out from the side, so no need to pull your whole PC out just to remove it, which is fantastic.
