AeroCool AeroRacer Pro Case

Provider:  AeroCool
Manufacturer:  AeroCool






A Closer Look (Exterior):

This case has one rather unique feature. It feels awesome. I seriously spent a good 5 minutes just touching the case. It feels almost rubbery wherever it's painted red. The AeroRacer really does a nice job of capturing the car feel. The front door is a translucent black, meaning it will let some light through. This is nice if you have any drive bays that light up. The front power button has a nice blue LED surrounding it and the fact that it says engine start is just icing on the cake.

The first thing I thought when I saw the huge fan on the side was that it looked like something Flavor Flav would put a chain on and wear around his neck. The second thought was, "wow, that's a big fan." The fan unfortunately only has a 4 pin molex connector, which means unless you hook it up to a fan controller, you won't have any control over the speed of the fan.

One complaint I do have, is that the side USB ports are a little too close together and make it impossible to plug in two "fat" USB drives. I for one think that the front USB ports should be the most easily used, as they are usually the most accessible. They weren't really at a premium for side real estate either. This was definitely something they should have paid more attention to.
