GALAX Launches Metal Master Dark Guard PC Case

[Nomad76]

We spotted via IT Home a fresh PC case just released by GALAX under the name "Metal Master Dark Guard", a new case that works with both ATX and microATX (back connectors supported) motherboards. The case keeps the look of the Metal Master series, with clean lines and a nice beveled design. It also has a big tempered glass side panel that gives you a clear view of internal components. The case internal design shows special attention to cooling, as GALAX mentions that they put it through multiple airflow tests. It can fit up to eight 120 or 140 mm fans, and one 240/260/280 mm radiator which makes it great for high-end gaming PCs. The design has a smart air duct system to keep things cool, and there's plenty of room inside to make cable management easy. One cool thing about the design is that the USB 3.0, and Type-C connectors are placed at the front-bottom. This helps keep the overall look clean by hiding cables away from the user's eyes while keeping the airflow clean.

The case can fit the latest hardware components, including the new RTX 50 series graphics cards or any graphic card up to 400 mm long, and standard power supplies. GALAX has priced the Metal Master Dark Guard at 249 yuan about $35, at least that's the price on Asian markets. If it reaches Western markets around $50 it can be considered a viable option for those on a tight budget.

Oh I do so love those Asian brands and their naming. Metal Master Dark Guard. Sounds like a boss from a third-rate JRPG. Or a summonable creature in Yu-Gi-Oh.

That "Metal is master" printed makes me think of a song by the brazilian comedian metal band Massacration - Metal is the Law.

Well, look at it this way: Since they shot for bottom of the barrel this time, there shouldn't be anywhere for them to go but upwards, yes ?
