"Other than the Enermax Uber Chakra Case not being aluminum, it's very impressive. The styling on this product is very well done and allows easy access to the many drive bays. There is also a very convenient on-top interface with power button, reset button, 2 USB ports, mic jack, headphone jack, and eSATA port. The included 250mm fan is outstanding since it moves a lot of air, but remains extremely quiet. There's even plenty of room to work on the inside. If you're budget conscious but still require a full size case, I would highly recommend this product. Watch the video to find out more and check out the bloopers at the end." ~3dGameMan.com

Overall, we have to say this is a very impressive case. This is one sturdy, heavy, and well built chassis. Everything from the overall weight to the general construction, and the subtle attention to detail just screams quality. It's also quite an attractive case, and one of the first we've ever seen to implement an eSATA port in its design.

Editor's Choice The Uber Chakra full-tower case from Enermax is an excellent purchase for anyone who needs extra room for their hardware, providing ample space with excellent airflow, well-designed access, and an eye-catching appearance.

"Enermax did a phenomenal job with the Uber Chakra. Had I not already modded my current Case for water cooling I would've transferred my main system into here in a heartbeat. A Full Tower, Tool-less Case with exceptional airflow is something I have been waiting to see for years. The 25CM fan is a monster capable of pushing 80+ CFM while remaining whisper quiet - this alone would make any overclocker drool at the possibilities. The motherboard would be cooled, chipset and plenty of airflow provided to the CPU and memory areas of the main board. I would also like to mention something about the quality of the Case. I see many Cases come through here, some feel flimsy, some are decent but plastic and others are just done right. The front of the Uber Chakra is solid, even the mesh drive covers are actually aluminum and not plastic."
Editor's Choice "The monstrous 25cm side fan included on the Enermax Uber-Chakra has proven itself to be very helpful in keeping temperatures down, lowering CPU temperatures as much as three degrees Celcius. Though this may not seem like much, any overclocker will tell you that three degrees can mean the difference between good performance and excellent performance."
Editor's Choice "This is a great case if your main concern is cooling. Featuring a giant 25 cm fan on its side panel, you definitely won’t have cooling problems with this case. We also liked the fact that there is a switch for reversing the airflow direction and another one to turn off the fan light."
Editor's Choice "I was very impressed by the 25cm (250mm) fan and control the user has on the fan. I’ve never had a fan that I can control which direction it blows air by the flick of a switch. I’m also very glad that the user is allowed to turn off the bright blue LEDs on the fan, because I know so many people that hate LEDs at night. The layout of this case is exactly the way I like my cases to be.
Overall, I couldn’t be happier with this case. Enermax can add this case to their high quality product line-up, because it provides optimal airflow, tons of space and cools down the components being used. If you decide to purchase this case, there is no doubt that you will surely be satisfied."

"Overall I found that the Enermax Uber Chakra is a well thought out case offering the end-user more than enough space for even those folks with dual high end video cards.So if you’re looking for a new case to house your new system and need a ton of room for those huge video cards, the Enermax Uber Chakra is worth taking a serious look at."

"If tall server cases are your thing, then by all means pick up the Enermax Uber Chakra. This enclosure is not bogged down with a lot of features, but the ones it does have are perfect for both the everyday user and hard core gamer or future watercooling, as there is plenty of room to install watercooling gear.. The large 250mm side fan really keeps the inside of the case cool and does it 17Dba, which is rather quiet compared to some 120mm fans that run at 30Dba."
