Cougar Panzer Max Full-Tower Chassis Review

Introduction

Picking the right chassis can be a demanding task, with so many options on the market to choose from. However, if you’re looking for something for a high-end build, you know you’re going to want a lot of high-end features, such as room for a lot of storage, water/air cooling, huge graphics cards and often more than one of them, excellent cable routing and no doubt more. Cougar thinks that they have the answer, with their gaming-focused Panzer MAX, a full-fat, feature packed ATX full-tower that looks as aggressive as its specifications would suggest.

“Panzer MAX brings you unprecedented levels of freedom when designing your system. Its support for six different motherboard form factors and up to four double slot 390mm graphics cards allows you to install all the computing power you need, while the possibility to host up to six storage devices will provide plenty of space for your files.” – Cougar

“Cooling is a key factor for gamers, overclockers and PC enthusiasts in general, and PANZER MAX offers all they could ask for. With support for up to eight fans and four water cooling radiators, you will enjoy more than enough cooling horsepower to keep even the most advanced components safe from overheating. To complement this, its intelligent cable management system will keep all the cables behind the motherboard tray, allowing air to flow unobstructedly and dissipate the internal components’ heat.” – Cougar

With room for high-end E-ATX motherboards, multiple full-size graphics cards, plenty of storage bays, extensive cooling support, and more, the Panzer MAX certainly sounds good on paper, so let’s get it out of the box and take a closer look at what it has to offer.
