A while back, newcomer Bitfenix exploded onto the custom computer scene with an utterly unique chassis, the Colossus. We've already seen what they did with the follow-up to that case, the Survivor in a previous review (http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/frontpage/?q=bitfenix-survivor-review). Now they're back with a special edition of the Colossus - the Venom Edition. We didn't cover the original Colossus so let's get our hands dirty and get a real close-up look at this new Venom edition. Read on (http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/frontpage/?q=bitfenix-colossus-venom-review)...

Holy Carp :eek: that thing DEFINITELY lives up to it's name! Colossus is almost an understatement. :D
I think Hemi was thinking new kitty condo. :whistler:


Oh, by the way great review. :up:

Heh - she can't help herself - I think it might be the warmth from the lamps I use when taking the review photographs - every time I do a review shoot, she appears and has to have a good look.

it's neat and all, but I'm not a huge fan of the squiggly lights :think:

The cosmetic styling is definitely love it or hate it - I chose to disregard it because I don't think it's a valid "feature" for the purposes of the review. I personally can't quite make my mind up (which kinda puts the kybosh on the love it or hate it thing heh) but functionally, and from a build quality standpoint, there's almost no faulting it.

Hey, have you seen these things?

They're gi-norm-ous!


Why must you make ModCron feel so tiny??? lol

Lol... now ship it to SXR and have him replace the LEDs with RGBLEDs and wire them to a controller and we can have colossus rainbow edition!

it'd only take me a weekend :whistler:
