Today, we finally got our hands on a much anticipated chassis being released by BitFenix, the Colossus. BitFenix has plans on competing with the giants of the industry, such as Cooler Master, Lian Li, Silverstone, etc. BitFenix has created a massive case to say the least, weighing in at just under 40lbs. Hopefully this means solid construction with lots of features that we would not normally get. With the LED-lit front and side panels, this case is sure to catch plenty of attention from everyone who sees it. This case has one-of-a-kind written all over it and so far we have seen only the box. Enough writing from us, let’s dive into this beast and unwrap the mystery that is the BitFenix Colossus.

The aesthetics aren’t for everyone clearly, I personally like them a lot, as did The Duke.
Regarding not fitting an SR-2…to the commenter, are you in the market for $1800 worth of CPU’s and motherboard? Because I think 99.9% of the potential buyers for this case are not, therefore it’s a totally unimportant and unnecessary feature for them to have invested in.
This is one fugly case..
No side window, no space for radiators, takeoff of a HAF, gey lights, won’t fit a SR-2, … Try again.
Looks great….but I was hoping for better support for water cooling options as well. Oh well, nice start BetFenix…looking forward to more products from you
