hey what's up Tech friends Elric here on the tech demo YouTube challenge to bring you guys an unboxing the first look at a really interesting case by the people over at bit Phoenix this is their new prodigy case it's a micro ATX case it has really cool features it's all white and supposedly has like some really nice rubber touches on the outside they're supposed to make it nice and soft and it's totally portable so beyond that let's just jump in and let's see what comes in the box first off I'll take my little army knife right here it's like a little helicopter knife take that go ahead make a quick little click make a incision here make the incision there make another incision here now let's just show you guys some of the stuff here let's sit the camera to zoom in show you guys from the box right here and wrap it around what you guys see the back of the box here is one of the nomenclatures he tells you this is the arctic white version then we have the specifications on the side here which we'll go over after we do the unboxing so let's pop it open case top pops open right on top and here we have the prodigy quick installation guide now if you guys remember this but in the 80s there was a band called prodigy and they were like one of the craziest bands I have ever seen they were all keyboards wild hair some crazy guys from England that's the first time I saw a project that's what it reminded me so I'll go ahead and set that off to the side then we'll bring the case out set it right here we're gonna have to go out a camera range for this one just go ahead and take it pull it out the box take the box and throw it at the cameraman all right now let's flip this bad boy around you guys can see it all comes completely sealed plastic wrap all that good stuff so let's start slowly taking it apart more stuff to throw at the cameraman you guys know how we love that one more to say that the cameraman alright then so this thing's pretty lightweight you go ahead and take it out of the bag now the unbagging of the case it's an unboxing slash unbagging I hate these bags cuz they get caught on everything in the case and just ended up ripping them off anyways alright then cop boom so let's start off let's flip it around to the front doubling so here's the front very very simple elegant a single Bay right here for your CD player everything else is all back behind see if there's anything else out here to take a look at all righty then toke the front of it that's it got you little bit peanuts logo flip to the top two handles so you can carry it around also on the top you see there's a grill right here there's a little switch right here you just switch that so you can remove this this is where you'd melt the top to 120 millimeter fans will show you now this side ruin nothing to that side go ahead and we will remove the side door Bay now this one's very easy some of the other ones that I've tried to get off were hard you guys have made some comments about that but these ones are little tiny little rubber little feet these particular hand screws are very easy to turn they have a big rubber base around them to grip on your finger and so they're very easy to remove I had no problem with that whatsoever I'll go ahead and remove the side of the case you see the inside completely white on white let me go ahead and just take that set that back to the back let's look inside of here here's our accessories little thing right here pop this open let me use the trusty knife one more little time over here here's the accessories package this has all the different stuff that you need to mount bands and stuff inside the case now one thing that's really tripped by those cases if they say that this is made so that you can use a water cooler now that's gonna be really interesting if you put a CD player in here on the top I don't believe you're gonna be able to use the water cooler here now we take a look at the interior of the case now inside the project you can see that you can mount a dual rad right here on top but there would be a drawback to that if you put the dual rad in here you're not gonna have a place for your CD player so if you don't care about having a CD player and some people don't you can put the dual right in you can have it completely enclosed water cooling system this little tiny thing all the bays easily pull out they're all type you just bend place your drive inside of it easy lock completely tool free slides back in you got there sliding stuff you can actually entire cage out of here the entire cage pulls out so you guys can see we can remove the cage additionally then when I move the cage we can see the front fan mounted right here on the Front's a little bit hard to see but you guys can see that there's the front fan that comes with it has an adoption if you want to use another one in there I don't know where you put it but that one should be enough you can see down here is where the power supply is going to mount it comes with all the screws and everything right here so you just put it in there now that close it you're good to go now we show you the rear of the case you can see there's a single rear fan here so the front ones gonna be bringing in air in this one's gonna be taking air out for airflow now we'll go ahead and remove the other side panel once again we see these little two thumb screws very easy to use now before I move the side panel I just want to swing it around I want to show you guys this here on the side we can see we have the power button the reset button the mic button headphone button and two USB 3.0 ports now let's go ahead and remove the side panel okay I was gonna try to remove the side panel which you can move I would not suggest it I don't know if the camera can get the camera inside there and see this but you can see that all those connections are wired in there so at this point there's really no reason for you to just pull this off I don't want to take a chance of taking the wires out but at least you guys can see that it's kind of a strange design to be on the side like that maybe it won't hurt anything later on so last but not least let's flip it around now let's talk about the features of this new little project case by a bit Phoenix now the materials the case is made of steel and plastic it comes in two different colors these are black black or white white it's dimensions are 250 by 404 by 359 millimeters it's mini ITX only it has one removable 5.2 Bay it has five 3.5 bays three plus two or modular it also has a his Explorer hard to believe but it says it has x 9 2.5 inch drive bays five plus two plus one plus one now as far as the cooling goes you get options it comes with a sink 120 millimeter fan but it has an option for an additional one as well cooling through the rear it includes a 120 millimeter fan but it also has an option for 140 millimeter as well on the top you get 120 millimeter but these are optional none come with the case PCI slots there are two the i/o is USB 3.0 by two HD audio the power supply supports ps2 ATX on the bottom it says multi-directional it also says it comes with a little bit of extras it comes with the fiber flex composite handles soft touch surface treatment filtered intake and tool free drive locking so that's it folks if you're really into small stuff and you want a case it's totally portable that's white you like that color this might be the thing for you now the only drawback I might see is if you want to do water cooling you will have to sacrifice that's right you'll have to sacrifice the CD player if you want to use a dual rad beyond that the little project is you case is nice there are no sharp edges in it whatsoever it's made nicely it's very easy to use I'm looking forward to building a system and checking it out further so see you guys back here in TECO tomorrow
