ADATA XPG Defender Pro, weiß, Glasfenster

If you look at the XPG Defender Pro review, you will notice that we critiqued the fact that a case of its price tag should come with a bit more I/O and more elaborate 2.5" hard-drive assembly engineering. On top of that, other offerings in that price range opt for a four-fan setup out of the box by at least providing three ARGB in the front and a basic non-ARGB fan in the rear. Lastly, the lack of a dedicated PCB for ARGB was also a topic.

Adata’s gaming team at XPG have really done a great job with this case. It’s not perfect, but honestly, I don’t think many cases are. The rear SSD mounts are a little tricky, but really that’s hardly a deal-breaker. They work, and typically, you’ll only need to install them once anyway. The ARGB controller doesn’t have a hub. It’s all on-cable stuff that can be a little messy to wire up, but again, it’s hidden out of sight anyway, so frankly… it’s not going to keep me up at night. Finally, I’d have liked a third fan in the front panel, at least at this price range, but again… it’s not the end of the world.

The XPG Defender Pro is marketed as a mid-tower chassis with exceptional airflow and a spacious internal compartment. Overall, it has excellent build quality and implements many modern features, including but not limited to the unique vertical GPU mounting posts, grommeted pass-through holes, fine-mesh intake filters, high-quality ARGB fans, and a great ARGB controller.
