Gamemax Aurora Mid-Tower Chassis Review

Complete System


Building a system inside the Aurora was pretty easy, as everything is nicely spaced and the cable routing is pretty freaking excellent too. As you can see, the overall build looks neat and tidy, and those lovely RGB fans are doing their thing up top too. However, I still wish they threw in two more for the front panel too.

There’s loads of room here for airflow, and indeed enough room for a multi-GPU configuration if you desire also. A small cable routing hole for the vertical cable passthrough would be neat, but as it is, it works pretty great.

Neat and Tidy

The grommet placement is perfect, with minimal cable trail, and they weren’t obstructed by the motherboard either.

Even the ones above the motherboard are right on the money, while many chassis makers still located these behind the motherboard somehow.

Around the back, the screw guard keeps your cards securely installed. It’s just a shame those covers are snap-off, but I guess you can buy a few cheap covers on eBay if you wanted to plug the hole at a later date.

Colourful

The included remote can control the RGB fans. It’s easy to hit a colour or effect or leave them on their default colour cycle. You can adjust the RPM too, giving you total control over the system cooling and acoustic levels. Pictures speak a thousand words for RGB though, so enjoy the images below!

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
