Today I will be taking a look at the BitFenix Comrade PC case/chassis. The Comrade is a budget option that comes in two colours, white and black and also comes in a standard version or a windowed version. It has support for most m-ITX, m-ATX and ATX motherboards and comes equipped with 120mm rear exhaust fan pre-installed. Being sort of a predecessor to the NEOS I previously reviewed it will be fun to see how the Comrade holds up.
Berfore we get into the specifications let’s have a look at what BitFenix have to say about the Comrade:
Aimed squarely at builders on a budget, Comrade delivers high-end features at an incredibly competitive price point. Available in two classic colors, Comrade brings a sleek, no-nonsense design that’s ideal for the first-time builder. Dedicated 3.5″ and 2.5″ drive racks offer ample expansion possibilities, as well as room for long graphics cards up to 30cm in length. Tool-free drive locking mechanisms make installing storage a breeze, while dual dust filters enable quick and easy cleanup. A high-speed USB 3.0 port has also been included to save you time during file transfers. Adorned with premium touches like a powder-coated interior and an aluminum-finish BitFenix badge, Comrade is a trusty mid-tower design and an unprecedented value.
