Hello everybody! Long time no see. Hope everyone is doing fantastic.

We've been doing a long time tradition of providing review samples of our new cases for the community, and Ronin will not be any different! Pretty soon, they'll be on the shelves, but once they do, I'd like to provide a sample to 2 people here on the forums for their leisure and for reviewing. I know a lot of long time members have found joy in doing these reviews , so lets keep the energy up!

So, how? Well like always, simply post below why you would like to receive a review sample. We'll choose 2 people randomly, and they'll have the following items to assist in their review:

1 x Ronin
1 x Alchemy Cable Set - Oh yeah, we've got mixed colored cables as well!
2 x 15cm Alchemy LED strip for your set up

Winners will be picked July 15th. Enjoy the rest your weekend!
 
I'd love to have another crack at a review, My Shinobi XL is going to be too big for the new place :(

I'll do what I did last time and tie it in with a new watercooled rig build I think.

My Girlfriends Prodigy is a bit too restrictive, so for me it's either going to be one of these Ronin's or an mATX Prodigy.
 
Id love to do you a review.

Im currently using a Prodigy ( see pics in the show us your cases section ) but am looking to move back to a full ATX system :)

Love the quality of the prodigy and want to have another of your cases :)
 
As always, thanks very much for hosting another great give away! :)

I would absolutely love to receive this case for the following reasons;


- looks like a very impressive upgrade from my current Bitfenix Raider case (which I am getting a bit bored of after 1+ year now! :p), I absolutely love the design and feature set of the Ronin and I am very curious to see if Bitfenix have solved the issues that I had with the Raider, also it is slightly smaller overall, which is a nice bonus

- I love reviewing products (would even review the two extras!) and would like to improve upon my reviewing skills/style even further with this case

- most importantly, you KNOW that I will provide a review without fail and in a timely manner i.e. less than 1 week for a very in depth review
 
Looks great and nice price point ! lots of potential, More than happy to review but low post count :(
 
Because I want to see how much you've improved on your previous effort the Raider, which I liked but it wasn't flawless.
 
I'm currently on the market for a new case. Would happily give an in-depth review if I got the chance to get in on this :)
 
I'd be up for a review of the Ronin. I quite like the look of the case and would enjoy the opportunity to test it, the cables and the led strip out.
 
It's a lovely looking case, and much prefer the outside having 'holes' within it rather than mesh - looks much easier to keep clean. Probably one of the best looking cases I've seen recently.

Would be more than happy to review the case! :cool:
 
I'd like to review it, I had the chance to review the previous case but I turned it down.

My spec is kinda "old" though - 775 mobo, 6870, 4gb ram etc
 
Why?

Well I've simply just upgraded to 2xGTX 760's in SLi...

They are currently housed in a Corsair 600T and even that is struggling to keep things nice and cool...so if BitFenix think this case is up to the task then send it my way and I'll gladly put it through it's paces!
 
I would definitely be up for this! Like I said on the announcement thread, I loved the look of the Shinobi but was put off by people saying it wouldn't fit a 240 rad. However, the Ronin looks just as good and meets said 240 rad requirement.* At the moment I'm currently using a Thermaltake Tsunami windowed case that's about 4-5 years old, with the design itself being closer to 8-9 years old! Cooling wise it has a top mounted PSU, single front and rear 120mm fans and a 92mm side fan directly over the CPU socket. Another design I like, but since I upgraded to an Fx8350 its starting to struggle with dumping the heat once I crank the voltages up.

I would like to be picked for a review as I would like to try something new (and by that I mean the reviewing, not the free case :p) and also I would like to give something back to the community here that consists of a bit more than just the odd news post or 'gut instinct' diagnosis. The Ronin is the same size as my tsunami +/-10mm and in the same price range (originally paid £69.99 for the tsunami), so if I were picked, I would do the review along the lines of 'How case designs have improved/evolved over the last 5-10 years'.

*I don't actually own any water cooling equipment. This is just typical me being picky should I ever get the money/courage to try it!

I would love to get this case because my brother needs a new case, because his old £15 case is getting a bit old, and the cable management is absolutely terrible. I would love it because I just got a new case from a competitor, so I could compare it with some other cases, such as the Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 and the Antec 300. I like this case and would love to replace my new case, if this is better!

I can also compare temperatures for GPU and CPU in both cases. I can also use the cable extensions to make it look great, and the extra length on the psu cables will test the cable management potential in all three cases. I also can try to make a very detailed review with my new amazing camera. This will definitely improve the reviews detail.
 
I'd love to do review your Bitfenix Ronin case.
I have done quite a few reviews so far, including couple of PC cases.
It will be a pleasure to do it for me.
 
I would also love to do a review of this case.

I currently have the Bit Fenix Shinobi non windowed version and my GPU can get pretty toasty at times so I would love to give the new Ronin a try as I have been looking into getting a new case recently. The Ronin has the looks that I love from the Shinobi but clearly has better air flow with the holes in the front of the chassis, I am also a massive fan of Bit Fenix products!
 
I would love to review this case, though i don't think i am the right person to do it...

Let me Explain my strengths first,

When it comes to analysing results and design features i am in my element, as im a design engineer by trade. I know my materials and finishes very well..

At performance my main concern is cooling, i would (if i could afford too) have a huge collection of CPU coolers and fans. I have to have the best airflow layout in my case..

So why am i not the right person?

I'm not an ATX person, I have always had mATX and always will do.. I know a lot about SFF mATX cases and how they compare against each other..

This may be a bit out of line but i think i'd be perfect to test and review the new Prodigy M.. :)

I will give an ATX case a try but i think that mATX and the Prodigy M inparticular is more my feild. :)
 
Having not been impressed with Bitfenix cases in the past, with the exception of the Prodigy, this would be a good opportunity to convince me other wise. Will also guarantee you an honest and impartial review. Having read some opinions on the Ronin, it does look like you may have stepped up, so it will be really interesting to find out for myself and put it to the test. Look forward to seeing who you choose to test out the cases.
