BitFenix Shinobi Window Case Review

Named after some of the most feared assassins of the modern age, Shinobi Window is the latest and greatest budget friendly enthusiast PC case from BitFenix. the company wanted to equip the Shinobi Window with the tools you need to get the job done without breaking the bank. Legit Reviews will put that design goal to the test today in our review of the Shinobi Window!

BitFenix's goal with the Shinobi Window was to address the budget minded gamer and provide a lot of high end features in a mid tower case. In my opinion they pulled this off brilliantly by packing thoughtful features and only making modest compromises. The fit and finish is fabulous and the case has a very solid feel with the exception of the fairly thin side panels. The soft touch finish gives the case a bit of class and combined with the nice recessed vent lines really makes a statement. Look out high priced PC case manufacturers, there is a new sheriff in town and he is gunning for you...

It aggravates me when cases have a bunch of fan mounts but they don't include a fan. Seriously if you're buying lots of 1K fans how much does that translate to the final product? $2 or $3 added to the cost of the case?

I do like the look of the case. I'm glad to see that BitFenix is getting it right so far.

And to the reviewer, sorry don't know who you are, excellent job with the Photoshoped arrows and graphics. Thumbs up, keep up the good work.

Thank you for the kind words. :partyman:

As far as extra fans go, you have a good point. However, this being a case targeted at the budget consumer I am guessing they were trying to keep the MSRP down. It actually has pretty decent airflow with just the two included fans if you are not planning on a major over clock. If I was using this as my main rig case I probably would only pop a single fan over the GPU.
