Launching today, we have a bunch of new Raijintek products for your consideration. First up we have the Coeus TC Evo & Elite, a pair of new chassis designs, with aluminium construction and tempered glass exteriors. The Elite is Micro-ATX, with the Evo an Midi-Tower equivalent. Both cases feature front, roof and side panels made of tempered glass. The Elite comes with 3 x 120mm White LED Ring Fans installed, with up to 280mm radiators supported on the front & top. The Evo comes with 4 x 120mm White LED ring fans installed, with up to 360mm radiators on the front and 280mm radiators at the top. Both cases can support 350mm VGA cards and come with a USB3.0 Type C on the front I/O. These will be in stock within 7-10 days.

Next, we have the Paean M, which is a Micro-ATX version of the original Paean chassis. It includes many of the original Paeans features, such as an aluminium construction and tempered glass side panels. It can take an ATX PSU and supports a 280mm radiator as standard, with support for a 430mm VGA card. Stock will be arriving in 7-10 days.

Finally, we have the Paxx PCIe 16x Riser Card Cable + PCI Adapter Kit. This allows you to vertically mount a graphics card in most conventional tower cases. The cable supplied is the full speed Gen 3 model as to be expected, and comes with the adapters to fit the graphics card securely within your chassis. Once again, stock will be arriving in 7-10 days.

same in regards to the riser, checked google. couldn't find anything on how it integrates with other 'standard towers'. info appreciated.

edit: found this quote on bit tech which appears to require case modding if your tower does not have vertical slots.

"Raijintek was also proud of its PCI-E riser bracket and cable combo known as the Paxx. Supporting PCI-E 3.0, this set is said to be compatible with almost any tower case (space permitting), although if you don't have built-in vertical GPU mounts you may need to get creative. The cable is 200mm long and manufactured to be properly attached at both ends rather than just glued in place – tests will still need to verify its long-term effectiveness, of course."

fashion over function apparently :D

I like tempered glass, it doesn't scratch up and go "off" in the same way acrylic does. I mulled over a lot of cases and plumped for the Meshify C.

It's overall a great case, I do like the textured front mesh panel and the compact form when compared with some other mid towers. I agree with other reviewers that the tint is slightly too dark though.

Cooler Master have their new HAF case with a whopping acrylic front panel covering the fans. Not really high air flow then is it. Why they don't just try to do something cool with the mesh like Fractal have tried is beyond me.

These Raijintek cases look a bit different, I'd consider one. Particularly the m-atx case. But, again, why didn't they try some stylised mesh on the front to improve airflow? You'd still be able to show off the RGB case fans

I asked on their FB page and they sent me this.
Seems like it is going to push the GPU to the right by about 2-4cm, which means your case should have enough space on the drive bay areas/front for the GPU

i agree about the glass, i like it on the side but that about it, iv'e been struggling to replace the air 540 for ages now (not because i really need to but because 2-3 changes would have made it the perfect case i/e hard drive placement, potential for a vertical gpu mount, glass panel, gpu intake fan to name a few). The 740 is it? i think was a missed opportunity to get it perfect.
most of the glass front cases sacrifice massively on cooling for aesthetics, a FRONT side intake needs to be 2inch away from the glass to work adequately and most case manufacturers are not getting even that right.
why cant we get a glass side panel with fan mount to? seems all cases now are done for aesthetics and the ones that don't have silly design flaws. sorry rant over :D
