GameMax Precision E-ATX Full-Tower Chassis Review

A Closer Look – Interior


Since this is an E-ATX chassis, it’s no surprise that the interior is vast. With room for massive motherboards, you’ll also find room for huge expansion cards, massive coolers, and a whole lot more. To help ease the installation process, you’ll find a huge CPU cooler cut-out behind the motherboard. Furthermore, there are 9 large rubber grommets around the outside of the motherboard, and 3 more on the PSU cover.

In the top of the chassis, you’ll find 120/140 fan mounting, with support for up to a 280/360mm radiator.

Towards the front, you’ll find the 5.25″ drive bays. These are cool to have, but they’re also fully removable. With them out, you can increase the front panel radiator support to handle a 420mm radiator! That’s a lot of water cooling hardware, should you want to go down that route.

Modular!

Need a lot of storage devices? Then do you need even more than that!? Awesome, as you’ll find three modular HDD cages located towards the front. Shockingly, there are three super sexy RGB fans between the front panel and these cages. However, you can’t bloody see them! I mean, you could if you take the HDD cages out, which we will, but seems odd to me as it is.

There’s another lovely RGB fan in the rear too. Of course, you can remove this, and add your own 120/140mm fan, or a radiator is you desire.

The PSU cover is a nice addition. You’ll still be able to see the PSU through the side panel though. However, it’ll help tuck away a lot of cable gore and keep things tidy regardless.

There are two more of those HDD cages under there too, giving us five in total.

Behind the motherboard, there’s a vast amount of room for cable routing. If you’re lazy, you could just cram all the cables back here, and I’m confident the side panel will drop into place with ease.

Towards the front, you’ll find the mounting holes for the HDD bays. While they’re all installed, they’re pretty much locked to one location. However, if you remove them, you can install them at any height you required. Of course, that’s handy if you only need one or two of them.

The built-in fan hub is good for up-top 10 fans, meaning you only need a single Molex to power your whole configuration. all four pre-installed fans come pre-wired. Furthermore, it also connects to the front panel, allowing you to control the fan speed.

  1. Hi, How do I control the fan colours? I can’t see where to connect the 2 pin header that comes from the front panel.
