Good new cases from an unusual source - Rosewill

Most of these have Instant Savings thru the end of July at Newegg/Chief Value.

This may come across as spam, but I just want to share what I've found with you. I have no financial interest in Newegg/Chief Value or Rosewill, except that I frequently buy stuff from Newegg/ChiefValue.

Full review of R5604 now posted here User Reviews

Rosewill has either got something figured out over there or all of this casitude is just accidental. We all should know that Rosewill is a packaging division of Newegg so I don't suppose you'll see much Rosewill other than at Newegg and ChiefValue and perhaps M&P shops or on eBay.

First they snap up some Yeong Yang cases (two color schemes of 5601 and one 5604) for rebadging and now they've got the R6Axx series with three styles.

The R6Axx series has rails for opticals, 0.8mm SECC steel chassis, grommets for HDDs (the HDD cage is the correct orientation), mostly toolless, will fit 120 f/r, the ports panel is not ALL the way at the bottom, and ridiculously cheap! These could be 3000B killers. They have front doors - a warning for those of you who don't like doors. Holy Crap! I just figured out who makes these - the same company that makes 'em for Antec and Compucase/HEC. Identical inside! Man, I thought those insides looked familiar (3000-B, Tsunami, 6A19, etc.). One is silver, one is black, and the third is black with a bit of blue bling on the front and swivel-out feet (a bit more for this one).

The R560x series also has HDD grommets in rails, sidesaddle HDD bays (work well for SATA and SCSI drives - not so well with a bunch of PATA drives), ports panel on top, 120 F/R, mostly toolless, has door. And the 5601 has a 270 degree opening door, so it can fold almost completely out of the way. Very good price with Instant Savings (thru the 31st of July. The R560x series is a bit higher priced than the R6Axx series.

None of these new Rosewill-rebadged boxes have side windows, but that's not hard to fix if you want.

Link to Rosewill Cases at Newegg.

They are all at Very Good prices for this level of case. Enjoy!

PS: Thanks for reminding me G-Y! None of them come with PSUs - which is just the way I like it (except for the Arctic Cooling Silentiums that come with Seasonic!)!

Thanks for the tip!

I think most people know the difference between a recommendation and spam.
