Inter-Tech Outs a Pair of Cubical Cases
Inter-Tech rolled out a pair of cube-shaped cases, the E-D3 Black, and the E-D5 Black, pictured below in that order. The two are built with 1.5 mm-thick brushed aluminium panels, which double up as its framework. The E-D3 Black is the more compact of the two, measuring 260 mm x 222 mm x 224 mm. It can hold mini-ITX motherboards, and offers two expansion slot bays. It offers a single 3.5-inch drive bay, which can hold a two 9 mm-thick 2.5-inch drives instead of a standard 3.5-inch one. Ventilation includes a 120 mm top exhaust, a 60 mm rear exhaust, and 120 mm side intake vents over the PSU bay.
The E-D5 Black, on the other hand, is roomier, measuring 285 mm x 222 mm x 270 mm. It can hold micro-ATX and mini-ITX motherboards, with four expansion slot bays on offer. There are two 3.5-inch drive bays, which can each hold up to two 9 mm-thick 2.5-inch drives instead of 3.5-inch ones. Ventilation includes a 120 mm top, a 60 mm rear exhaust, and vents over the PSU bay, much like on its sibling. Connectivity on both cases include USB 3.0 and USB 2.0/1.1 ports, HDA jacks, and holes for Wi-Fi antennae. Inter-Tech didn't reveal pricing.
