The Nox Xtreme lanbx aims to combine portability with the ability to pack potent hardware. The result is a small system you can easily take with you. The lanbx looks bulky and quite menacing, like those nuclear launch-suite cases in modern action movies, and we give it a go to see whether it is more than just a movie prop.

Very interesting case, it seems like smaller mini-ITX form factor has allowed the case manufacturers to be more creative with layout and design of cases.

In the box and manuals it looks OK, so probab OEM mistake...

Are LAN parties still a thing? This case is ugly.

Without the plastic shell, it looks like a pretty mod friendly itx case.

There are not that many cases with LAN parties in mind. I mean sturdy handle that actually works. Three-four pop in my head right away:

Silverstone SG04:

NZXT Vulcan:

And Antec Lan Boy:

And may be Lian Li with their dentist case :):

So kuddos about the product. There are so many other options though. Still interesting thing to see.

It looks like a crate with a handle and doesn't look especially nice. I've seen much better looking portable cases, which also have better handles.. Not for me.

That NZXT case which lZKoce posted above is much nicer, for example.
