Features and Specifications
I just remembered that the case this Armor Revo is up against had a robot-mech-thing on it. I hope the knight’s sword has magical powers or something.
I didn’t make it very long being serious did i? Oh well, here are the features anyway, straight from Thermaltakeusa.com:

| Included Accessories |
Cable ties and such must not count as accessories. At 25 pounds this isn’t an especially light case, though it was far less than some I’ve reviewed. It doesn’t have a carrying handle like the Seiran does, but once loaded with parts it’d be too heavy for most people to carry with one hand anyway.
This case comes with a lot of big fans. It’s a very nice change from the more normal setup where the case supports a lot of fans and ships with two. Thank you, Thermaltake!
Onward to actually looking at this thing!
