Raidmax Iceberg Case Review

Newegg: $49.99

Introduction (Cont’d)

On Figure 4 you see the case top panel with its radiator-like shape, where you can find two 120-mm fans (that glow in blue when turned on). These fans, like the other two fans that come with this case, use a standard four-pin peripheral power plug, not allowing you to control or monitor their speed.

On the top panel you can also find a panel containing two USB ports, one Firewire (IEEE1394) port, mic in and headphones jacks, plus the power and reset switches and HDD and power LEDs. This case could offer one eSATA port in our opinion, but maybe Raidmax didn’t include one to keep its cost down (what in the end of the day was a good decision). The main problem with this panel is that the two USB ports are two close to each other, preventing you from using them at the same time if you have two “fat” devices – USB drives, for example.

Finally we have the rear panel on Figure 6. It uses the traditional ATX layout, with the power supply on the top and seven expansion slots. Here you can see the fourth 120-mm fan and also two holes for water cooling systems. These holes are protected by a rubber mechanism, so you won’t need to break anything on your case to make these holes available.

Let’s see how Iceberg looks like inside.
