XIGMATEK late last week unveiled the Perseus open-frame ATX case. With a polygonal chamber design that creates two rear-facing panels, and a tilted motherboard tray, the Perseus features a steel frame chassis with tempered glass panels along the sides. The design creates two 120 mm fan vents along the topmost panel, 120 mm exhausts along both rear-facing panels, and two 120 mm intakes along the front panel. The main chamber with the motherboard tray has room for graphics cards up to 40 cm in length, CPU coolers up to 17 cm in height, and the PSU compartment along the bottom can hold PSUs up to 18 cm in length.

Storage compartments on the XIGMATEK Perseus include a combo plate that holds onto either one 3.5-inch drive or two 2.5-inch ones, and an additional 2.5-inch mount behind the motherboard tray. You can mount a 240 mm x 120 mm radiator along the top panel, and 120 mm x 120 mm ones along the rear- and front-facing facets of the case. Front panel connectivity includes USB 3.x type-A and HDA jacks. The case measures 610 mm x 230 mm x 540 mm (LxWxH). The company didn't reveal pricing.

We get it, its supposed to give that naked bike feel. But I don't ride my case and we don't get airflow from going 180 kmph either...

Simply put... NEXT! Or as @notb so eloquently puts it... yeah. Spot on :)

Mouse ...most of them. Current favorite(s): G403, Roccat Kone AIMO, Roccat Tyon, Razer Lancehead, DA Elite
Keyboard ...yeah, bunch of these too. (Current favorite(s): Logitech G513 and G910, Roccat Vulcan AIMO 120).
...who is buying these? Why are they always so expensive? The tooling can't be that much for all the straight surfaces...?? I don't think I'm in the target demographic for these, they make no sense to me.

Are they just ridiculously profitable or something? Why does every manufacturer seem to have one?
