MSI Interceptor Nighhawk Military-Class Case Pictured
Unbeknownst to many, MSI took a plunge into gaming PC cases with its Interceptor series Nighthawk ATX mid-tower. This case bears the "Military Class" branding that MSI uses on some of its high-end PC motherboards. Measuring 180(W) x 475(L) x 448(H) mm, the Nighthawk is one of the more spacious mid-towers. It features four 5.25-inch drive bays (all tool-free), six 3.5-inch bays (five tool-free), and black interiors with a dash of deep blue.
It has a feature-rich front-panel, including a 12-in-1 multi-format memory card reader, audio, USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports. Cooling system includes a 120 mm blue LED-lit front-intake fan, a 200 mm opaque side-panel intake fan, and a 120 mm rear exhaust fan. There are provisions for two 120 mm top fans, three 120 mm side fans (replacing the 200 mm fan), and a 120 mm bottom intake. Backed by a 3 year warranty, the MSI Interceptor Nighhawk is priced at US $79.99. A full review of this case with more pictures can be read at the source.

If it was so "Military Grade" I should be able to toss it down the stairs and it be okay?:wtf:
Angry nerds proof
What's up with all that military crap in PC hardware nowadays? They (MSI) include dogtags with the case, install a magazine-lookalike heatsink on the BigBang mottherboard, and Gigabyte even uses a heatsik that looks like one half on a pistol!? I can see a lot of 13-year-olds going "Hey look, my mainboard's got guns! Its better than yours! Hehe!"
I expected reactive armor, or at least Kevlar... or not.
That's all.
Looks like a cheap hooker.
I'll be holding on to the lovely Fortress FT01 for a long time. Or at least until I'm willing to sell my soul for a TJ07.
Long answer: Generic rubbish that is expensive when compared to civilian-class generic rubbish.The lighting that is causing that color, I believe. I think it's a common plastic silver-painted button. :ohwell:
