Introduction
I would like to thank
Chieftec for supplying the review sample.
The Stallion 3 is a spacious E-ATX chassis with embedded ARGB elements and a bit of an angled design. Clearly geared towards those who want some gaming DNA but also require lots of expansion space, the Stallion 3 is available in black, with four fans that may be remote controlled. Its side panel made of thick glass allows you to show off the internals of your system.

Packaging
The chassis ships in a brown cardboard box with an image of the enclosure on both the larger sides. On the smaller sides, there is some model and container information - that's it.
The Stallion 3 is held in place by two foam spacers which seem too big and meant for a different chassis, which is quite odd. On top of that, these are on the front and rear of the case which is somewhat unusual as well. A plastic bag protects the chassis from fingerprints and scratches.
