Anidees AI-4 M-ATX Silenced Chassis Review

Exterior

The left side panel is held in place with a pair of thumb screws, features a Kensington lock-loop at the back, and a snazzy little Anidees logo in the bottom right corner.

The right side panel is just a plain black panel with two more thumb screws at the back.

One of the coolest and most interesting features of the Anidees is the front panel, a sleek-looking brushed aluminium coating on the door panel looks and feels superb.

Behind the door you’ll find two easy to remove 5.25″ drive bay covers with a little ventilation on the front of them, a pop-out / clip-in washable dust filter and a thick layer of sound dampening on the back of the front panel door. There are some vents to the left and right side of the aluminium panel on the front of the chassis (see above) to allow airflow to the fans without spoiling the clean looks.

Around the back you’ll find a top mounted PSU section, some snap-out routing hole covers, a pre-installed 120mm fan with option for an 80mm fan should you wish to change it and five expansion slots.

The top panel continues the theme of the front panel door with another lavishing of aluminium right across the central top panel.

The main I/O panel at the top front is also back with aluminium, while also featuring 2 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB, HD audio, power, reset and best of all, a fan speed control switch.

The underside isn’t anything fancy, just four strong rubber feet and a very slow ground clearance, both of which should help keep this case nice and steady.
