Game Max Kamikaze Mid Tower Chassis Review
Peter Donnell / 6 years ago
Final Thoughts
How Much Does it Cost?
Amazingly, this chassis only costs £49.00. That’s quite literally one of the best deals we’ve seen this year. Yes, there are other chassis for this price, but with a fan controller, PSU shroud, fan controller, dust filters, water cooling support, etc? Yeah, good luck finding a better value for money chassis than this!
Overview
Game Max has absolutely knocked it right out of the park with the Kamikaze. Sure, it makes a few compromises with its design, but there are minor issues that are easily overlooked by the included features and price range. It’s little things though like the rear PCIe covers being a snap-off design, or the blocked off ports on the front I/O, or the acrylic not glass side panel. Can you look past them? I can and here’s why.
Added Value
The Kamikaze ticks a lot of boxes for those building a new gaming PC. Obviously, it’s cheap enough that you can afford to spend more on a new GPU vs a more expensive chassis. However, for your investment, you get a dust filtered design that also includes four high-quality LED fans. They’re not RGB, but the red does look great and matches the red trim of the front panel perfectly. There’s a simple but handy fan controller, allowing you to toggle between silence and performance with relative ease. Moving on, you also have six storage mounts, with four SSDs on display, and hidden bays for your ugly 3.5″ drives. Then there’s the PSU shroud, the cable routing grommets, excellent cable routing, removable HDD bay, plentiful cable routing space, etc.

Should I Buy One?
There are a lot of £50 chassis out there to choose from, and quite a few of them are good too. Game Max has long been a strong player when it comes to price vs performance. However, the Kamikaze may be their best features vs price combination to date. It makes a few minor compromises with design, but there in places that you can compromise. However, when it comes to the good stuff, it’s simply stunning how much value they’re offering here. Highly recommended, and possibly the best budget chassis of 2018!
