“If we could describe the XLCIO A380, which is identical to the A+Case Twin Engine, with one word it would be: monstrous. Not because of looks, as it looks incredibly sleek. The case sports two huge 25 cm fans which light up and are a definitely a huge attraction at LAN parties. Big fans don’t have to be loud – the included fan controllers allow you to fine tune the fan speed and noise as needed. Even at maximum speed the fan noise of this $110 case is barely audible.”Here are some more Cases & Cooling reviews from around the web:

A quiet hurricane
techPowerUp reviews the full sized XLCIO A380, whose pair of 250mm fans move a lot of air very quietly. Combine that with the “toolless installation” that is becoming very common and a fairly low price tag, and you have the basis of a good gamming system that won’t drown out a vacuum cleaner.
