COUGAR DarkBlader X7 Midnight Green Case Review

Cougar continues to go from strength to strength with its fantastic range of PC cases. I recently reviewed the new Cougar MX440 MESH RGB, as well as the Cougar DarkBlader X5, and I absolutely loved them both. However, today, I’ll be taking a look at the Cougar DarkBlader X7. I have high expectations of it too, previous cases have all been stylish, well made, and competitively priced, and I’m expecting no less of the DarkBlader X7. However, the X7 has one truly unique feature; it’s green! Most cases are black, white or quite literally somewhere in between. However, I’ve noticed a growing trend on the horizon to step back from pure RGB themes and throw some real colour in the mix. Admittedly, Midnight Green isn’t a huge leap from black, but it’s the start of things to come, trust me.

COUGAR DarkBlader X7

It’s certainly a well-equipped PC case, offering impressive support for both air and liquid cooling. It’ll take up to a 360mm radiator and up to 7 fans in total. Furthermore, it comes with Cougar’s own VORTEX ARGB VK120 fans pre-installed, There’s room for up to an E-ATX motherboard, as well as room for a 400mm graphics card, large GPU coolers, and so much more, so without a doubt, you can get a pretty potent system inside the DarkBlader X7. Plus, it’s ticking a lot of other boxes too, such as an ARGB lighting controller, dust filters on all intakes, a PSU shroud, vertical GPU mounting, tempered glass window, and more!

Features

  • Superior Cooling: Water cooling radiator support; Air cooling support
  • Distinctive Style with Dazzling RGB Lighting Effect: DarkBlader X7 refined wedge-form and asymmetrical design bring a unique and modern style with ARGB strip to display amazing lighting effects.

Furthermore, we use metal frames, instead of drilling tempered glass with 4 holes in corners, which helps to upgrade the durability.
  • Vertical GPU Support: This revolutionary case is both about performance and aesthetics. To bring your system’s awesomeness to the limit, DarkBlader X7 supports vertical GPU installation.
