GMC has obviously paid close attention to the aesthetics of this case and it seems to have paid off as they’ve created a case which really looks smart. But as soon as you start removing the side panels of the case you can immediately see that...

Looking at GMC X7 X-Station, it remind us their R4 Bulldozer which looks like a transformer case and X7 X-Station has the similar concept except without the vertical ODD insertion. X7 X-Station is the first gaming PC case from GMC and overall we are...

To conclude, I find that this case is more than capable of inspiring a midrange gamer and could hold a trove of gaming hardware. The cooling wouldn’t be an issue assuming that the builder knew what they were doing and could have the essential...

When I first saw a picture of the X-7 X-Station, I was not at all impressed. However, after I had removed it from its packaging I started to think it actually looked stylish. That is, if the current style is a futuristic, robotic look. Ripping the...

The X-7 X-Station is GMCs first gaming chassis and they tried to make it as affordable and appealing as possible. It is not a chassis you could compare against a very expensive high end aluminum model, but it would be a good product for those who are...

Looks are pretty futuristic Two power buttons Price is pretty good Not a lot of room No ways to hide your cables Has a front lcd for temperature monitoring Pretty basic chassis...
