BitFenix has taken the frame of the Prodigy M and now offers its genes in the Phenom Micro-ATX chassis aiming to offer a clean, understated, but compact option to those who need storage drives and the ability to include potent hardware.

8.9 Rating but is TPU Highly Recommended?
 
I dunno if I'd knock it for no filter for the PSU exhaust. The air is being exhausted there, not sucked in. More than likely if there was a filter, it would get clogged in no time. Specially since all the air and dust would be getting drawn right into it from the other intakes.

Heck my filters get caked within a few days. Constantly having to blow them out. They also don't stop all the dust. Inside always has a layer of dust in it that has to be blown or sucked out.

Doesn't look like a full-tower case to me.
 
looks good
tight but still has more space inside
 
Thanks for the review ;)

Too bad there is no filter for the bottom input fans, too bad the stock fans are not 140mm.
I will be really interested in cooling performances of this case with "gaming" hardware installed. The graphic cards look a bit ... out of cold air flow. Guessing if they wont overheat :/
