This is a video review about a case I got to replace my old one.

This is a GIGABYTE 3D MARS all aluminum case with 2 120mm exhaust fans, 1 12cm intake fan, 2 80mm intake for hard drive cage cooling and cheap price compared to other aluminum cases.

  • Thanks for the review !

    How would you rate the noise of the case? With 5 fans I assume it wouldn't be on the quiet side?

    Is it possible to turn off the blue LED power-button light? (i think i'd find it distracting).

    Would have been great to get a good camera shot further back encompassing the entire case for a better overall view.

  • The 3 120mm fans are controlled by the motherboard and when on low speed you can barely hear the case and it is next to my bed, the other 2 80mm fans are connected to a molex and they are also quiet.

    You cant turn off the blue LED of the power buton or the fans.

    my room is small but you can probably find picture like that on newegg or gigabyte own website

  • I have been searching for a case for my new AMD build. My current PC is a dated P4 3.6GHz and I'm building a new AMD Phenom II X4 system. I saw Gigabyte's 3D Mars case on Newegg and wanted to look into it furthur before I purchased. You video review has been a lot of help and now I know htis is the case I'm going to buy. THANKS!

  • It's a nice case for it's money, the only thing bothered me is the expansion card latch can't close on big cards like the GTX 280, I had to use thumbscrews

see all

  • I have the same casing, face the same probleb with the auto screwless lock with my crossfire 4850 cards so what i did was that i removed the whole screwless mechanism. It's easy, just remove a screw from the back panel and the whole thing comes off. The casing provides lots of spare thumb screws so I used them to secure my cards, very handy :)

  • sub'd

    5/5

  • Thanks alot for your review i plan on buying the case as soon as i can afford it

    i do have a question. i plan on switching out the stock fans and putting in fans with a high rpm and all purple LEDS.

    My question is, does it look like its possible to switch out the front LEDS that light up the front panel?

    Great review

  • I have this case love it

  • Sounds good, cheers. I think i'm gonna get me one :)

  • Great vid nice case 5/5
