The Chenming ATX-602 Aluminium Case Review!

Dashken · 29th Sep 2004, 10:35 PM

What makes a good case? Build quality? Accessibility? Space? The enthusiast would probably choose all of those criteria. Of course, it should also be reasonably priced, for those of us not blessed with deep pockets!

This brings us to the Chenming ATX-602 Aluminium Case. It's certainly one of the cheaper all-aluminium case in the market. But is that its only advantage? We think not. Find out why this case impressed us so much that we gave it our Reviewer's Award!

Here are the updates:-

Added a mention about the detachable FP connectors (Page 7).
Added a picture and mention of paint loss around the rim of the side panel frame (Page 16).
