Why 8 New Miditower Cases Do Not Always Deliver

The Test Candidates In Detail

Aplus Xclio: Big Case, Small Display

Aplus would have trouble giving away the Xclio temperature display for free. The small display is not visible in places, since the opening on the front panel is too small. Although only unnecessary border areas are covered up, it still looks very primitive. The visible areas display only the temperature, transmitted by the sensor affixed in the case. The positioning of the sensor is also very unfortunate, because the cable only has a few centimeters of leeway. The integrated fan control is not controlled via the front panel and functions independently.

With the big case, the small display is completely lost.

Weak: is the display too big or is the opening too small?
