be quiet! Shadow Base 800 FX Review
Packaging & Contents »Introduction
I would like to thank be quiet! for supplying the review sample.
The be quiet! Shadow Base 800 FX is the first of the Shadow Base series we are reviewing from the brand. As the model number entails, this chassis represents a spacious ATX tower, which sports the signature design elements that be quiet! has established for their enclosures. The FX refers to the fact that this chassis offers various RGB elements - both embedded into the front panel, and the pre-installed fans. The Shadow Base 800 FX is available in both black and white variants. We have the black one for review.
