    Default Enermax Hoplite ST

    Enermax is known largely for their power supplies but they also have some solid gaming cases. Today I will be taking a look at the Hopslit-ST, which is Enermax’s newest mid tower case. If abstract looking pc cases aren’t your cup of tea then the new Hopslit-ST may be something that will intrigue you. The mid tower case from Enermax comes in to two different colors (white and black) and has a simple, classy looking exterior, which is sometimes hard to come by in a gaming case these days. This case has all the gaming features you could need, like tool-less drive bays, an external hard drive SATA port, a transparent side window, good cable management, an external fan controller and more. Yet it still retains a simple and elegant design. Let’s see if Enermax’s cases are as good as their power supplies, and see if perhaps this is the right case to house your next build. First, here is a litte more about the manufacturer.

    Not bad Chris. This looks better than anything ThermalTake has put on the market in the last two years. Probably less plastic too. Not a fan of the slitted window, but otherwise a well-rounded case.

    Great review not a bad looking case either, although I thought it was priced a bit high especially for a mid-tower

    Well done...

    Again, with fan locations obstructing main view through the window....

    "I would like a new window installed in my house, with view of the Lake, ....Can you also install a large fan directly in the middle to obstruct my view?... cause isn't that what everyone wants?"

    Lazy designers....

    This is why We get many inquiries for replacing these ventilated windows with normal windows
