Bitfenix Shinobi XL XL-ATX Gaming Case Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

[R3leaZ]

Oh my God... >.< you broke it! 6:47

[quagmire29]

That's what she said!

[DutchDukeMan]

my case fits 5x in it

[jman10nnsss]

Linus is getting buff

[F3lixb97]

@LinusTechTips Could you make an review of the Bitfenix Colossus?

[IRTEHHAX]

What the hell, just noticed 6:00.. people are saying "woaahh"?

[IRTEHHAX]

You guys need to remember to clean the lense!

[braydenmaine]

The NCIX Website layout is kinda crappy, i have a hard time navigating the site to find what im looking for. Someone should redesign it to be easier to access. I was on the bitfenix website, and it said that i could purchase at NCIX, so i clicked the link, and it showed me the standard Shinobi. The search function hardly works either. Its the only reason i dont buy from NCIX to be honest. But thats just my 2 cents.

[zanfromslovene]

Dude i think that it was for optical drive the thing at : 10:20 ;D

[whiteniggerspiderman]

he broke it. lol. 6:50

[FailedSnail]

"This thing is big, black, and sleek"

[Schmidty156]

"...A toooouch bigger" 09:37 giggled a bit there ;)

[MrSLY49]

LinusTechTips where we learn about foam lol

[iConorHD]

OMG I heard the camera man

[001NightHound]

@LinusTechTips - Where would u put the 2nd 360 radiator ? i only see space for one at the top .

[pcchip3]

I hope that Hello Kitty key is your wife's.

[Juubee5]

0:46 thats what she said ;)

[hX4r15]

linus dirty thech tips at the beginning.

[DarkAAProductions]

NOOOO i JUST GOT THE NORMAL SHINOBI!! FUUU***KK

[Axelsson]

did anyone got the penis references at the beginning?

[hX4r15]

@Axelsson yeah, i noticed your comment, and then i was laughing so hard when i watched the beginning/.

[0peppers]

@Axelsson Do you mean the one in the video or the one in the description? :))

[HellNo842]

One rad in the roof, one rad in the front.

[RsnRewind]

00:26 thats what she said

[LegionOfOnslaught]

very boring case my nzxt phantom 410 looks a hella lot better

[MW2watchyourback09]

@LegionOfOnslaught Its not a boring case. It looks more sophisticated (lol can a case be sophisticated?) and smart. Rather than the rough and fast look of the Phantom.

[LegionOfOnslaught]

@MW2watchyourback09 it looks like a large office pc the reason i like my phantom is because it looks like a gaming pc and is unique

[MW2watchyourback09]

@LegionOfOnslaught Nah the Phantom looks pretty cool. But some people want a sleek and smart PC. For instance, why do people buy a posh Mercedes when they can get a Ferrari?

[Wowmasta21]

@MW2watchyourback09 Because a Ferrari is $250k+ and a Mercedes is 35k+?

[LukesNewLife]

umm i love this fucking case...wonder if the "sodt-touch" would go all shitty if you cut a window.

[LukesNewLife]

ooohhh nooo

[CJBSLinker]

When the USB 4.0 comes it will be called ultraspeed.... or hyperspeed :D

[dedra506]

0:51 "and sometimes wider" LOL...so the case has a flexibility feature by its self??

[Shovinus]

6:40 - yes, yes, you did break it, you snapped two of the clips off on the mid right side section, Well done you.

[LandonHeat]

@Shovinus yeah he didnt remove the screws in the middle

[Shovinus]

@LandonHeat BitFenix don't screw their front and top panels on, the reason it broke was just because he pulled it off too aggressively, using a firm but slow pull would have removed the panel without any damage, to be honest it shouldn't really matter because the panel will still reattach fine, but it is just annoying when people don't take care of property.

[paaal92]

Linus, can you tell us if there is room for a 60mm radiator + fans in the top, without having problems with it hitting the motherboard?

[0saskatchewan]

and I thought I found a channel on YouTube that doesn't make dick jokes..

[shogrran]

@HeretixAevum and Linus put on his best poker face.

[smukipogi]

is it larger than LittleDevil?

[quickgroth]

00:30 - 00:55 Trying not to crack up xD

[Doougin1]

the 360 rad goes in the front. the bottom of the optical drive cage has a cutout for it.

[LukesNewLife]

I fucking like this alot

[shogrran]

06:50 did he really break the case? what are those two things in the middle of the screen? are those the clips?

[HeretixAevum]

@shogrran Yeah it looks like the plastic connector clips on that side broke off from simply removing the top. That has happened to me with other cases that use a similar clip system, they're extremely cheap and easy to snap off.

[Transfusiionz]

Linus! Maybe the rad goes in the front?

[Transfusiionz]

To anyone questioning buying a spectre fan, I have a Spectre 140mm as an exhaust in my case, good airflow and i cant hear it at all, i have to put my ear ALMOST to the fan to hear it. Very high quality.

[1BYEBYE1]

0 0

[----] <--FOAM FACE

[DjSuperSou1]

you should redo this video

[Zsavage1]

at the CA. link there is an option to get a window'd side pannel...very nice option .. and thanks for the review.. I did notice that you kept saying water cooled... I believe it's Liquid Cooled

Not trying to nit pick but for the noobs out there.. water is not a good idea for cooling incase there happens to be a leak while it's running :o The Liquid I use is non conductive so it gives you a chance to see and stop the leak befor damage .. Peace out

[winkiedink22]

FOAM FACE!!!!!!

[Jsak666]

you make emphasis on the cases water cooling capabilities and how it accomodates two rads but only show one spot??? seeing as it is a watercoolers case, you should have maybe put more emphasis on that

[hoofhearted44]

hey Linus. if you read these (esp one this far out of date) id love to see the Switch 810 case reviewed if possible. ive looked at other reviews, but i really like the points you go over! thanks in advance if you do it (whether it was because of me or not lol)

[4thNebula]

I just noticed NCIX is selling a window side for the Shinobi XL and Colossus. Great news!

[4thNebula]

Actually, Bitfenix, if you put a large window on the side I will buy it!

[4thNebula]

Nice case. I am concerned that there is no mesh along side the PCI slots in the back for those of us that intake at the top, front and bottom and exhaust out the back. However, the venting along all side might make up for that. This case also looks to be made for exhausting out the top (no filter there). Also is no window. Would be nice if someone would do a video sometime on how to install a window. Otherwise, this case would be on my list.

[loko95ftp]

hes gay 

[xG4m3rJ4m3z]

@loko95ftp Then why is he married to a woman?

[AdolphOttoEichmann]

@loko95ftp linus is not gay , hes a shemale

[sorewall]

0:26 thats what she said :)

[IVIRnathanreilly]

you should do an unboxing of the aerocool syclone 2!

[uxo68]

Will that foam survive Fed X /UPS throwing it over the front fence ??

[ChiefLeftenant]

The link is broken

[HendrikMedia]

The next case is a car!

[TheJustin574]

It's an ok case, but for 150 bucks I would like to see more aesthetic features.

[ctrlaltdisease]

:D

I noticed this today, really happy that you did a onboxing of this Linus. Definatley getting this thing.

[GoldenGamingHawk]

lol thats what she said 0.o to the description: This thing is big, black, and sleek.

[gurunaman]

India is opposite small area + large population , i don't know much about Canada most of the things i know i heard from robin on the "how i met your mother" show

[MrJokertime1]

Can this have a 360 push pull

[webgier]

haha penis



[cs16rlz]

2:02 poker face xD

OH MY F************* GOD THAT'S ONE BIG CASE XD jajaja

[eventfularse]

Does it support m-ATX?

[1337RaysoRb]

Bitfenix website says it's Mid Tower and doesn't support XL-ATX? :O

[BruckThatsMe]

@1337RaysoRb You might have seen the normal Shinobi. They look pretty much exactly the same.

[ExtremeBassRockers]

"This is the Shinobi XL this stands for Xtra Large..." ORLY!? °o°

[HeretixAevum]

This looks bloody brilliant. I can see myself doing my next build in this for sure.

[SApcGUY]

thumbs up if you think that linus has the best job in the world ;)

[piet10113]

This case is very similar to the Aerocool PGS B Evil black eddition, like fan sizes , build quality and design..

[YoungCapp]

Couldn't escape the double entendres in the opening seconds ay?

[stigwastaken]

now with twice the entendre.

[iToXiCzZHD]

2inches longer than your probably used to...

[frostin1990]

6:01 hear that lol?

[gatler05]

6:00 woah

[The2021083]

face at 2:20

[001NightHound]

@The2021083 - haha a smiley face box foam =)

[CustomPcTech]

This is a great case. It has just about everything you need. And it looks Awesome!!

[coolmyself]

If a system-wide lockup occurs, you can't bring up task manager, nor hitting power button would work - the only way to restart the computer is to push "Reset" button. So if a system lockup will occur, you will need to search for a pen (or something thin) to push "Reset" button with? As in: "my system froze, now how do I push a button?". This is extra idiotic.

And who would push "Reset" by accident anyway? Vast majority of people shut down computer though "Start" button.

[BruckThatsMe]

@coolmyself I don't think it's that recessed. Mine is recessed as in I can't push it like a normal button, but with a bit more pressure it works. I have a feeling it will be similar in this case.

[markothevrba]

@gnomebolt555 The two little knobs he hides with his hand, that's broken if I ever saw it

[JChan1026]

0:45 That's what HE said :P...

[Melee112expert]

Every time he said something about shape or size I thought to myself that's what she said XD

[sajten]

@gnomebolt555 What mark meant was the knobs that holds the front panel, not the front panel itself.

[markothevrba]

@gnomebolt555 You're just mad that you broke your case

[markothevrba]

@gnomebolt555 Bad news for you bro, you broke it too :P

[DavidoPolandSecond]

wow it's really big.. huh. ok. that's what... yeah... I said ? Wait... No... :| xD jiiiiized me pants of laughing :D

[zomgwtfbbqbagel]

FUCK I JUST LEARNED THAT THIS GUY IS CANADIAN!

[stetdawg]

@zomgwtfbbqbagel Is that bad or are you just an ignorant boy that thinks canadians are obscene from south park's description of them, due to the lack of skill to produce your own thoughts

[zomgwtfbbqbagel]

@stetdawg Well it seems someone has family issues... Nice jump to conclusions though.

[zomgwtfbbqbagel]

They're trying to hard not to laugh in the first 2 minutes of the video

[bitbloop]

2:02  [: 0]

[chiyusuru]

Guys please wipe the camera lens down. This is the 3rd time i've seen the camera suddenly go out of focus and the same 3 large spots on the lens appear. It's a simple fix to prevent that auto-focus mishap.

[prnfce]

@chiyusuru shut the fuck up

[chiyusuru]

@prnfce Wow I got under someones skin for asking the guys to wipe the lens? I wasn't even trolling this time, it was a simple criticism to make the video more professional.

[mortal4212]

that;s what she said 00:27

[Gamespflow]

no search results for us.

[To0t]

this is a very very nice case and this is coming from a corsair 650d user

[To0t]

@To0t in fact i'd pick this one over the Cm cosmos 2 because the looks are cleaner

[annata12]

You should get your hand on one of the Coolermaster Silencio series, they are very nice cases, for everyone who has a tight budget

[rthompson995]

lol yeah u broke it XD

[paul2786]

just fucking hilarious xD slick laughs so much that cant even hold the cam still

[NUUclearprotein]

I think the second 360 goes in the front after removing the 200mm

[Hobogoku1]

I'm pretty sure he's been asked this like a million times, but honestly, what does he do after he unboxes all these things?

[PCEnergyMonkeys]

@Hobogoku1 He works for a computer warehouse company,NCIX. I'm guessing they put them on display after this or use this for benchmarking or personal use.

[robboz85]

@PCEnergyMonkeys To add to this comment, They also sell some of the items. Go to LinusTechTips page and search for keyword Warehouse, and watch the first couple videos.

[marcellnl]

What's the price :p

[djbobmeister]

stop laughinf cameraman, u making linus laughing lol

[JakhCarme]

2:00 Happy, foam is happy

[enzudesign]

pretty decent case :)

[Lobomaster22]

The cameraman laughed lol

[TheChrisRain]

This video is full of that's what she said

[ameisenterrorist]

M E G A upload to me today

[nxxx33]

[1SlkRick]

@nicktheodorou9 Not a bad case, Still would prefer the 800D.

[MrJakewoodall]

i loves me some case pr0n

[Madawg65]

screws to open the case..it fails right there...800D rules over it just for that

[SavageSn1p3r5]

smiley face foam

[InternetSandman]

LINUS HAS A HELLO KITTY KEY? O.O

[crazy88boss]

Really needed side fan mounts.

[killerkristin041180]

This case is only show on the CA site currently. Maybe it will show on the US site once it's released. Very nice review and I like the case but I think it may be too big for my setup.

[aznboy60469]

HOW MUCH IS IT LINUS?

[theEGEshow]

Im building my first pc tomorow any tips ps i got a pro coming over to help

[Craseronline]

@theEGEshow USE STANDOFFS, for the motherboard this is the best thing u can do, as motherboards dont supply them u got to get them urself

[CHILLIANATOR]

@Craseronline all cases supply the standoffs and you have to use them

[Mickkazzie]

Can't you mount the rad fans in the top of the case in the plastic air cover and metal body? if you can i would!

[xnamkcor]

The entire time he's mentioning how long and wide it is, he's smiling like he's resisting the urge to say "That's what she said".

[DEKARONGAMER97]

It fits in my pocket (trollface)

[jtwarwick]

linus do you have a cs degree?

[Fatfatfat94]

that's what she sad



[MrJiYung]

2 inches longer and sometimes wider... hehe why you laughing, Linus? :3

[Irvini64]

240 on floor or 360 in front

[LibertyMaidens]

lololool "i said" instead of she said ^^ awesome

[dli7319]

someone should put a intel atom mini-itx motherboard in there

[iamnottomgreen]

I like dat big black booty!

[PSNAdmin]

@iamnottomgreen It's "That" not "dat" you nigger.

[markothevrba]

Yes, he breaks it at 6:44, but it's not his fault, it's the manufacturers fault for making it from shitty plastic :P

[TeamDriftKings]

@markothevrba nah lol he didnt notice XD that you have to pinch the the thing hold it down. Its common on most cases. i have 310 elite has that setup for front panel. and ya its cheap plastic



[marouanebenouzekri]

@markothevrba Corsair & Cooler Master rocks! <3

Thumbs up if you agree!

[Dantakurasaki]

@markothevrba lol, really? You obviously have never had a bitfenix product, they are all about quality mate :P

[markothevrba]

@Dantakurasaki Apparently not ALL ;)

[Lunixed]

Hey, could this work on any motherboard? also the US link is down.

[markothevrba]

2:02 The foam is happy to :D

[anorend]

my dad thought he used high quality rubber... :P

[Zeraan1337]

I can't tell what the price point is ...

[MrCaptainCoool]

@2:19 its planks brother :L

[fdsal0]

Super charge port lol just dl ai charger

[zamorakmage2010]

[AceStrife]

[Apple2134Gamer]

VVB (Very Very Big)

[Spartan117FS]

07:17, someone received an email/IM etc. on their Nokia phone : 3

Who has Nokia there Linus, WHO!?

[MecTecher]

I cringed when I heard the snap of the case at 6:46.....

[maxxikiller]

[Lyserberg]

[TednTin]

thumbs up so every one knows

[ktucker147]

Biggist case I ever seen
