PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-25

Looks like a server case (tons of bays), tool-less install for HDs and DVD drives. Its a bit hard to use the tool-less but it works. Room for 3-4 dvd drives and 8-10 HDs.  It has 4 fans, that look well placed. Has speed controls for the big top and side fans. Power Supply fits on the bottom so its very stable. Lots of LED lights!!  Got some whistles from tech savvy friends as they looked in the case for the first time. It looks pretty good.

XClio Touch 787 PC Case
Both the noise levels and the limited availability are going to affect the final score, but they can always improve the amount of stock available for the Touch 787 over time, so don"t take that hit to the score into effect really. What we are left with, bottom line, is a super tower chassis that has a lot of the latest in features while adding a few new ones, packaging it in an aggressive looking facade, and delivering this chassis at a respectable price point. I have to say that Xclio offers everything basic and advanced users would want, and with the Newegg.com listing of $159.99, the Xclio Touch 787 is enough case to stand tall in a segment of cases that is heavily populated already.



 


 

PC CASE: XClio Touch 787 PC Case-2012-07-25

XClio Touch 787 PC Case
While I would have liked to have seen a USB 3.0 20-pin connection on this case, at least we do still get USB 3.0 in the front I/O, even if it does take up one from the rear I/O to do so. There weren"t any real fit issues, but I must say these door panels are some of the tightest fitting panels I have seen in a while. It really took some force to remove the panel, and when re-installing it, I had to really force them back in place as well. The only real downside that I can speak of, and I better do it with the case off, is the noise level of these included fans. I thought the Touch 320 was a bit loud for my tastes, double the fans, and you can imagine things don"t get any quieter. While the fan speed is adjustable, on high speed, the noise is too much for me to personally like it. If I were to use this chassis the fans wouldn"t make it past low speed. Even then the ten included fans offer plenty of air at low speeds to sufficiently cool the interior and my components.


 

PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Color PC Case-2012-07-25

XClio Nighthawk Color PC Case
Pros: Very sturdy
Fans are so quiet, you can run them on full and you won"t notice a difference.
The LED color change is awesome to have.
Fan/light control is great to have


Other Thoughts: Overall, this case doesn"t have any major problems, just little things that are easy enough to work around. If you have the know how, you can get past the HDD problem.



 

PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-25

Very good case, dust is easily cleaned, keeps all parts of the computer quite cool. Great looking case, plenty of room inside, pre mounted fans, great airflow, those XClio fans can really push air. Beautiful, spacious, incredibly cool and super quiet. This case has it all. Power supply mount at the bottom makes install and organization of components super easy. Lots of drive bays. 3 large fans keep it quite chilly inside. Perfect case for the hardcore gamer or home server build.


PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-25

Lots of fans; great aiflow. The LEDs look really cool.  I bought this case because I bought a second video card and my old case had poor airflow and would over heat with the two cards. This case completely fixed the problem, the airflow in this case is absolutly amazing. Great airflow, solid build quality, roomy inside, looks amazing.

PC CASE: XClio A380BK PC Case-2012-07-24

Pros: I"ve had this case for about 6-7 months now and I couldn"t be happier with it. Massive, whisper quiet fans keep this huge case very cool. If not for my CPU fan, I would barely hear anything at all. The rail system makes it easy to add or remove drives. Just snap the rails to the side of the HD or disk drive and it slides right in. 7 expansion slots on the back panel give you plenty of room for your graphics cards and more.


Other Thoughts: Make sure your cables are long enough. It can be quite a stretch to go from the top 5.25" bay to the connectors on your motherboard depending on where they are on the board.



 

PC CASE: XClio Windtunnel Advanced PC Case-2012-07-24

Pros: HUGE! You can fit anything you want in this baby and it will still have plenty of room. Sleek design and the cooling is beyond superb. One of the best cases you can get!


Cons: None so far!


Other Thoughts: Only reason to not get this case would be because its big, but then again thats the whole point.



 

PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-24


 


Excellent air management keeps the computer and video card very cool. Plenty of room for all my components. Looks pretty sharp, nice sleek design.  I purchased a new case to take care of some thermal problems I was having with my old case. This NightHawk does an excellent job of performing this task. Lovely case. The tool-less design is as promised.


 


 

PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-24

Looks like a mini server and could be one with all the available hd bays. great air flow. Lighted fans and the 4 corner blue led power/hd indicators are very cool on the all black mesh case. Bottom mount psu. Predrilled for h2o pipes. Enough room behind mobo to route cables for very clean build. filtered intakes. No sharp edges. Absolutely love it. Fans move mucho air, wires were long enough, connections were no brainers and the case got a positve review from my wife who sees computers as no different than any other tool.

This case is an amazing mid tower for the price. Everything in my system stay cool and was not cramped. I"ve had it for about 1 year and half now and it still holds up great. This is a great looking case which is a lot cheaper now than it was when I bought it. It features 3 fans , which are LED. The case is simple in design but very sleek. My case is ice cool all the time and hasn"t overheated once. It is definitely the best case you can buy for this price range; I wouldn"t hesitate to recommend it to anyone building their  PC.

This had the most desired attributes for the price, even though i don"t know what half of them do really. But its working great.

Pros: Smooth looking case, holds 8 hard drives which is always nice. plenty of room for fans*check cons on this one* easy to install everything touch fan controller is pretty sweet. Great all around case for a decent setup or media server that you want a lot of hds in check out cons but if i would have to buy this again knowing what i know i would have not and waited tell they released the fans for them.

PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-23

So happy with the first two I bought I bought two more! Air flow if the key to computer life....period.
With 3 fans each with speed control switch for this price like WOW! Bottom mount power supply. Rock solid build.
Blue lights on all fans if your in to cool blue! You can not do better for the price!


PC CASE: XClio Nighthawk Black-2012-07-23

Very sturdy construction, this case is rock solid. Airflow is good too, although the real test is in about 3 months when the temperature rises above 100. The LED"s are pretty bright, may or may not be a con, but everyone knows that the more blue lights you have, the faster your system is. The little doors that the front fan are mounted on are a really neat idea. Overall it"s a great case for the price. Comes with a lot of screws and stuff too.

Great case for the money. Cheap, Good Looking, Blue LED fans, Plenty of room + Great Airflow.  I needed to build a cheap gaming computer for my brother and I"ve always liked XClio. This case has great cable management, it"s sturdy, cheap, lots of cooling fans. Pretty spacious for a mid-size tower. Helped keep overall cost low.

PC CASE: XClio Touch 787 PC Case-2012-07-22

XClio Touch 787 PC Case
The touch series cases have now not only added simplicity with the touch controls for the power of the PC, the LED lighting, power of the fans, three various speeds, silencing the beep, and even locking the control panel are all just as easy as a soft touch for a second on the appropriate button. At first, what I thought was just going to be a larger rendition of the 320 we just looked at, I am pleasantly surprised to see that the ideas and implementation of those ideas are still coming from Xclio as they keep pace with other solutions, just in a different manner. Most cases in this price range offer some sort of removable hard drive racks, and Xclio does too. When the drive racks are in place, even then the orientation of the drives is just so natural to allow airflow and ease of access to then drives with just the release of a clip.

PC CASE: XClio Windtunnel PC Case-2012-07-22

Pros: Much larger and heavier than what I had imagined it to be! But, better bigger with a lot more space than small and cramped up!
Had plenty of room to fit everything that needed to go in the case! Haven"t had it on for too long yet, but seems to be holing it"s own as for now. Then fans look good and seem to be ventilating the insides pretty well.
Well, so for so good! If anything comes up it the future, will post!


Cons: None that I can think of which could be defined as a "Con"


Other Thoughts: Cable ties that were provided weren"t, either long enough in some instances, or not strong enough in a few others. But for most part was ok.


The front panel doesn"t come with USB 3.0. Though it was my fault that I didn"t pay too much attention when I was ordering it, but I think now a days, they should make it a standard feature!


A few more USB ports in the front panel would not hurt!


But, am happy with case in general!

Looks like a mini server and could be one with all the available hd bays. great air flow. Lighted fans and the 4 corner blue led power/hd indicators are very cool on the all black mesh case. Bottom mount psu. Predrilled for h2o pipes. Enough room behind mobo to route cables for very clean build. filtered intakes. No sharp edges. Absolutely love it. Fans move mucho air, wires were long enough, connections were no brainers and the case got a positve review from my wife who sees computers as no different than any other tool.

The case has so much room for customization, if you take out the HD bays you can have up to 9, 5.25 slots, you can move the front fans in any 3 slot configuration you want, both side panels remove so there is easy access to the back of the cpu it also leaves a .5 inch gap behind the motherboard mount for cable management.
