BitFenix today is showing of a new model codenamed Shadow. The chassis has a stylish front door, which opens to the left and has sports ventilation holes at the bottom. Under holes you can find special modding back-light, which can be turned to blue, red or just off. On gaming forums some players say that after installing red light glowing from their computer, they started to achieve better results in clan matches. In the end red color raises our blood pressure and gives more power to fight.
Behind the front door, we can find three 5.25" bays, where you can install a Blu-Ray burner, memory card reader, fan controller, reservoir for water cooling or even LCD display of temperatures inside the computer. Under 5.25" slots there is a place where you can slide in seven 3.5" HDD and one 2.5" SSD - all without using any tools. Inside BitFenix Shadow you can mount ATX, microATX and lately very popular Mini-ITX mainboards. The maximum graphic cards length inside the case is 320mm and a CPU cooler can have height of 165 mm.
At the top of the Shadow are located two high-speed USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports and Audio Out / In, so you will not have to go under or behind the desk anymore, every time you want to plug-in something more than a phone and pendrive only. BitFenix Shadow comes with two included 120mm fans, one at the front to intake cool air and one at the back to get rid of hot air from inside the computer. Of course at the front there is also removable anti dust filter, which prevents our valuable hardware to choke to death from the dust.
