Front Plastic Cover a bit Flimsy, Rear Fan Not Included
Thin, slightly flimsy construction, Expansion card retention mechanism could use improvement, Expansion bay alignment issue, Slightly cramped interior, Needs more open ventilation, Door latch, More complete manual, please
No other fans included, No dust filter, Expensive, Plastic PCI slot locks, Motherboard tray not removable
Wish the inside was painted instead of the plain grey, Hard drives could be rotated towards the side panel
External USB connectors too close to one another, Expensive, Lacks external exhaust fan, Lack of speed control for 40cm fan
Doesnt include exhaust fan
Price might be a bit high, almost into full tower territory

For most of us, the shell of our high-end system is just as significant as the components inside, and we want a distinctive chassis that stands out among the other LAN-party builds. AeroCool’s AeroRacer Pro has plenty of useful features and...

The AeroRacer Pro is a tough case to give a final score to. I wasnt blown away by the AeroRacer Pro, however after testing it and having on the bench for a couple weeks it proved itself to be very functional. The AeroRacer Pro is most definitely...

The AeroCool AeroRacer Pro could be a great case for overclockers looking for good airflow, this thing will give you a huge amount of it. The AeroRacer is well made, and there’s a lot of room in it as well for most any system. The lack of intake...

The bottom line about this case is that well in all honesty despite all that we said about this case it is rather simple and plain, the only thing really making this case unique is that very large 400mm side intake fan and that over sized Start...

The AeroCool AeroRacer Pro is a nice looking case that stands out from the crowd due to its huge 40cm side panel fan. It has a few issues, but they are minor. This case would be ideally used for a server, where ventilation is paramount. The AeroRacer...

Aerocool has once again hit a homerun. The AeroPower Pro is not only very stylish but mostly screw less and provides tons of cooling. The 40CM fan was very quiet; spinning at only 400RPM it’s able to generate 250CFM of airflow. The front bezel is...

First I want to say a few general words about AeroCool’s products I have had a chance to check out. All the system cases are rather interesting and competitive in such a complex and densely populated market sector as the medium price range. Yes,...

The AeroRacer Pro captures the feel of a car very well. The case looks flashy, like how a sports car should look. It is however, plagued by a few drawbacks, like the USB ports being too close together and only coming with one fan (even though its...

The AeroRacer Pro from AeroCool is a nicely built case with the largest side panel fan I have ever seen in a production case....

One of our favorite areas to really talk about are the cases. I think a lot of it goes back to our modding roots, but a lot of it also touches on the fact that this is easily one of the larger decisions you'll make with building a computer. If...
