Stonerboy779 Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 Took me a sec to realize this wasn't the same as the Armour Revo you reviewed a few months back haha Styling is a bit strong for me and as such it holds no appeal but it does seem well featured and built another great review greg. Liking the use of zoomed sections to give context to some macro shots. Leg rotation pic was sweet too, you seem to keep on bringing something new and better with each review, glad we have you at OCC.

red1776 Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 Very Kind of you M, thanks for the feedback Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporX Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 I am curious, from a construction point of view the Revo had a weakness with the front panel. It was way to easy to pull off and the little latch pieces on the top panel were plastic and easy to break. Did they resolve this with the move to the smaller form factor?

I suppose only time will tell and many on/offs, but the there are six 1/2" diameter split posts that are rather beefy and hold firmly. Hard to tell how they will wear in the long run, but they look and feel the part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporX Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 What about where the front and the top interface, that is were I saw the weakness, the two little tables the pull the top into the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red1776 Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 They completely redesigned those tabs. They are shorter, in a different position, and need to bend mush less to release the top control panel. It's a much better system than the full tower case.

wevsspot Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 Great review, but that has got to be one of the worst looking cases I've ever seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renigade Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 Awesome Review and a Great looking Case (from my stand point) because everyone looks at things differently. When I look at the case I see great modding and painting fun. As most PC hardware, components, and cases these days are Dark its so easy to over look details that are camouflaged by lights. I love Sharp contrasts and starting with light colors I see a ton of potential with metallic and florescent paints as accents and highlights. My gaming PC has been in an Antec 900 for to long and this case has moved into my top 5 considerations. \ And the Price is nice too !

LOL Thanks d6 Like I said to Wev, there seems to be no in between on the opinion of styling for the Revo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
