Upon removing the side panel, we are met by an all black interior which is a great feature for any case. The side panel is flimsy and consists of very thin metal, but this is forgivable if the other features are worthwhile. Only a single 120mm rear exhaust fan is supplied with the case.
The forward facing HDD drive cage can accept up to 4 3.5″ devices, 2 of which can be installed using pre-applied anti-vibration rubber mounts. The single 2.5″ SSD mount is located at the very bottom of the drive section and is nothing more than a flat surface with 4 screw holes meaning it has to be secured from underneath the case. 4 5.25″ devices can be installed, but only 3 have the possibility of being externally exposed. There are plenty of cable management holes adjacent to the 5.25″ and 3.5″ drive bays, perfect for routing SATA cables and connectors.
There is plenty of room for a lengthy ATX power supply such as the Corsair HX1050 which can safely sit on BitFenix’s rubber feet. Using a long power supply may result in the bottom 120mm fan mount being rendered inaccessible. This isn’t too much of a problem in our opinion. One negative point about these bottom vents is that neither of them features a dust filter. If you are using this case on the floor, be prepared for a weekly cleaning session just to avoid the power supply overheating and your internals filling up with dust.
The rear 120mm exhaust fan is positioned directly above the power supply. Above the fan are the 7 PCI slots, each of which are covered by a ventilated, non-replaceable metal shield. 2 rubber grommets are fitted giving you the possibility of using external water cooling with the Outlaw.
The roof of the case features mounting locations for 2 120mm fans. You could potentially mount a 240mm radiator in this location but due to the spacing between fan mounts, a little modding would be a requirement.
BitFenix chose to use non-replaceable 5.25″ bay covers which may irritate some people. The bottom 5.25″ bay cover doubles up as part of the mounting location for the upper 120mm front fan. Conveniently placed holes allow for easy front panel cable access, taking them directly into the case, but still managing to keep them hidden away in the 5.25″ drive bay area.
There is literally no room directly behind the motherboard tray; it basically touches the left side panel when it is in place. There is around 2 inches of room adjacent to the HDD cage which acts as a cable routing and storage area. BitFenix use this area very cleverly, using cable management holes which force your cables directly through this route. The large CPU cooler backplate cut-out is a welcomed feature primarily associated with higher priced offerings.
