Rosewill recently announced a new Armor series case called the Armor Evolution. The new mid-tower chassis is constructed of SECC steel and measures 8.74” x 19” x 22.84.” The mid-tower case supports motherboards from micro-ATX to E-ATX in size. The front IO includes power and reset buttons, two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, and two audio jacks. Rosewill uses perforated metal for the ventilation panels on the sides of the case.
Rosewill packages the case with five fans, and the case supports a total of 9 fans. The pre-installed fans include:
- 2 x 120mm red LED-lit fans on the front panel
- 1 x 120mm top fan
- 1 x 120mm rear fan
- 1 x 230mm side fan (optional support for four 120mm fans on the side panel)
The case additionally supports:
- 2 x 120mm fans on hard drive rack
- 1 x 120mm fan on bottom of case
- 1 x 120mm fan on the top
Internally, the Armor Evolution supports seven 3.5” drives, three 5.25” drives, E-ATX motherboards, and up to seven PCI expansion slots. Additional features include a tool-less design, CPU cutout, cable management routing holes, a bottom-mounted PSU, and water cooling grommets on the rear of the case for routing tubes outside of the case to external radiators. The Armor Evolution supports graphics cards up to 14” and CPU heatsinks up to 6.5.” Rosewill has also included removable dust filters to cut down on dust buildup.
It looks like a decent case from Rosewill that offers plenty of cooling (both air and water cooling options), and it should be competitively priced. Unfortunately, there is no official word yet on pricing or availability for the Armor Evolution case.
