#BITFENIX ENSO PC#
For the average home PC builder, 5 bays is more than enough, easily. There is support for 3 of the former, and 2 of the latter (naturally you can use the 3.5'' bays as mounts for the smaller factor as well, should you so choose). Well, as is becoming somewhat expected, the Enzo Mesh supports more 2.5'' drives than 3.5'' ones.
What about the boring stuff, then? Drive support, fan/cooling support, and the rest. The difference now, being, that you can put higher TDP parts in the new iteration of the Enzo. Whilst Fractal's Define/Meshify cases are perhaps the most extreme example of a chassis shrink, cases like the Enzo are certainly not big by any standard, and yet will still happily fit high-end components should you so desire. The original Enzo (like this one) also continued the trend of releasing traditionally sized 'mid' tower chassis in progressively smaller and smaller footprints. The product page for this relatively new chassis can be found here. It would appear, in receiving this message, that Bitfenix has gone all out and beyond. Now Bitfenix has joined the party, likely because a sticking point in the original Enzo review was how much better the case could have been with even some front intake.
#BITFENIX ENSO SERIES#
We saw this with numerous & and popular series of cases, including (perhaps most famously) the Fractal Design Meshify series, as well as CoolerMaster's much-anticipated release of the 'HAF' H500 series that was so adored back in yesteryear. So, there begins the airflow revolution of 2017, with many popular chassis receiving 'meshed up' versions of their original designs. The original Enzo had a fundamental flaw in that its front airflow was almost entirely non-existent.
However, for those of us that liked cool and quiet running components, it presented a notable problem. For the looks conscious builder, it was ideal. For years prior, cases had been shipping with ever more and more closed off front panels, progressively blocking fresh front intake air all at the expense of an admittedly ever sleeker design aesthetic. well, for lack of a better term, a 'revolt' in the industry. Unfortunately, it released right in the middle of. The original Enzo released last year, in 2017. Bitfenix are no strangers to the PC hardware industry, largely dealing in power supplies and cases, as well as an increasing range of RGB daubed cooling fans. So, when Bitfenix contacted Hilbert offering their new Enso Mesh case for review, I jumped at the chance.
Perhaps I am just a sucker for Scandinavian design (well, I know I am), but low key and largely unassuming chassis are by far the most appealing to me. To this day, the Meshify C series from Fractal Design has remained my long-standing and firm favorite of any case released in the last 3 years or so. In my time at Guru3D, I have done 3 chassis reviews.
