Cubitek Tank XL-ATX Case Review

A Look Inside
When I took the side panel off I was surprised to see an all silver interior.  Almost every case we review now has a black interior, but it is nice to see the silver again.  There is a large support bar / VGA card holder in the center of the case.  This not only gives your case support, but also holds longer video cards in place.

There is quite a large hard drive cage on the Tank case.  It houses 6 hard drives and can be completely removed from the case itself.

The housing is very simple.  There is a section that will lift your power supply off the bottom of the case for ample airflow.  Above that you have the PCI slots, 8 total.  They are secured with thumbscrews and have ventilation holes on them.

Each of the three 140mm fans use a 3pin fan connector that is not that long.  Most motherboards do have 3pin fan connectors so connecting these fans to your motherboard should not be a problem.  Cubitek does include two 3pin extensions, one of which you can connect 2 fans to.

The 5.25-inch drive days are pretty basic.  You can see the 5.25-inch to 3.5-inch adapter in the bottom bay.  It can be removed so you can use the bay for a 5.25-inch drive.  If we take the opposite side panel off you can see there is quite a lot of room to hide cables behind the motherboard tray.  Also inside you will find the box of goodies which has all of your mounting hardware and accessories.
