Fractal Design Shows Define XL Being ‘Bullet Proof’ By Shooting It w/ Shotgun

Fractal Design has uploaded an interesting video to YouTube this morning that shows how well constructed their cases are made. They want to rid the world of crappy cases, so they decided to take a shotgun and shoot the side panel of the Fractal Design Define XL (our review) case to show how it is damn near shotgun proof. They also take a competitors side panel out and shoot it as well. It was penetrated by just a single shot, while it took ten shots to get through the Define XL side panel. Sure, Fractal Design could have used buckshot and poked a hole right through the side panel, but that wasn’t the point. They used No. 7 birdshot for this demonstration and we think it drove the message home rather well.
