Final Thoughts and Conclusions
Enermax designed the new Ostrog GT gaming enclosure to be a fortress for all your PC gaming hardware. The Ostrog GT is a full-featured mid-tower case that provides numerous case cooling options and comes with three installed fans. It can easily accommodate extended VGA adapters (as long as you are willing to remove the upper HDD cage). The case offers lots of drive mounting space but does not come with any built in 3.5”/2.5” HDD hot-swap options. Overall the build quality is good, the case is easy to work with, and it is relatively affordable for a full-featured mid-tower gaming enclosure. The new Ostrog GT is a nice addition to Enermax’s case lineup.
The Enermax Ostrog GT Gaming case is currently available and typically sells for $74.99 USD (Newegg.com, April 2013).

• Good case cooling options with support for liquid cooling

Minor Weaknesses:
• No external hot-swap 3.5” HDD bays
