EVGA Introduces the Hadron Air Mini-ITX Enclosure

News
By published

EVGA has announced its Hadron Air Mini-ITX enclosure, which comes with a custom-tailored 500 W 80-Plus Gold PSU.

Lately, there seem to be many developments on the Mini-ITX front, and as a manufacturer, it's wise to focus on what's currently popular. As such, EVGA is releasing the Hadron Air enclosure, which is a Mini-ITX case.

The case also has its own built-in PSU -- a 500 W 80-Plus Gold unit, which is more than enough to power almost anything you'll mount in this enclosure.

EVGA has granted the case a three year manufacturer warranty, and slapped an MSRP price on it of $189.99. For a Micro-ATX case, it might be a bit much, but remember, it has a custom-tailored 500 W 80-Plus Gold PSU inside it. There was no word on availability.

    It kind of reminds me of an old Sony computer.

    It is a nice looking case imo.

    1) Price is way too high
    2) Since the PSU is custom made, u'll have a hard time getting replacement.

    The reference to the LHC cannot be missed, but I'm not sure what do they imply with that... That you can unleash a torrent of energy within the enclosure perhaps?

    As to #2, no, it won't be.

    Seasonic 500W 1U Gold PS with 40A on 12V rail
    As to #1, I wouldn't say it's exhorbinantly overpriced, but it is overpriced by probably $20 to $30 considering the price of the PSU involved. The case without the PSU should probably be in the $60 to $70 range, thus the inclusion of the PSU should kick it up to around $160 to $170.

    Like the article said, If you include the PSU, the price isn't that bad. $100 dollar case plus $90 gold rated PSU is what I'd go for on a desktop, why cheap out on a M-ITX?
