AeroCool AeroRacer Pro PC Case Review

The Aerocool AeroRacer Pro

AeroCool has been designing cases since 2002, which just happens to make the company the same age as Legit Reviews. Over the past six years the engineering team over at AeroCool has focused on airflow as the center of design for their PC cases and the AeroRacer Pro PC case pictured above should clearly show that.

It seems that over the years fans have become larger and it looks like they have finally become the same size as the case dimensions themselves! The first thing that jumps out at you when looking at the AeroCool AeroRacer Pro case is the 40cm or 15.7 inch box fan strapped to the side. At 400mm in size the fan is nearly as tall as the 410mm chassis, which makes it look like a box fan strapped to the side of the computer. Back in the early days of LAN gaming people used to improve cooling by using a household box fan, so it looks like that cooling trick finally went mainstream and a 120V electrical connection isn’t needed. Chassis designers have finally caught up to what modders and gamers have been improvising on their own for years! Before we get too far let’s take a quick look at the features and specifications of the AeroRacer Pro.

Packing

The AeroRacer Pro comes in a nice sturdy box with all specs and features listed on the ends, and sports images of the two color versions of the case on the side. Today we will be looking at the black version.

Out of the box we can see the AeroRacer Pro comes packed in the usual way, foam end caps and wrapped in plastic.

The finish of the front bay door is protected by a plastic wrap. This easily peeled off and left no residue.
