A case may look ok from a brief observation but how does it fare with installing kit within its chassis? Since the Strike-X ST is an XL-ATX ready computer case we have installed an XL-ATX system within and as you can see from the pictures below this case deals with such a large setup very well.
Space between the top of the motherboard and the top of the chassis is very generous, as is space for CPU cooler and graphics card – more on this within the next section.
Lots of space, even with XL-ATX
Cable management is good
In order to get a HDD installed inside Strike-X ST the drive must be placed within a provided tray. These plastic trays will accommodate 2.5” and 3.5” drives. Screws simply slot into the bottom of the drive. These trays are actually quite robust for plastic.
