The new AMK PC20 is the company's first all aluminum case
and in my opinion, the best AMK case to date. AMK Services was the first company
to offer an "overclocker's" case for general sales. Before then, the only way to
get an overclocker's case was to make it yourself. Since then, other
manufacturers has entered this market promising bigger and better performance.
AMK Services has always been able to stay a step ahead of the pack by offering
very innovative cases at a price that was lower than the competition. The new
PC20 continues that tradition.
Like all AMK cases, the numbers at the end of the name
tells the size and number of fans in the case. In this case, the PC20-333333 has
six high power 3" Sunon fans. The PC20-333333 is one good looking case. Its
dimensions are 17.5" high, 8.25" wide and 19.25" deep. For a mid size case, the
PC20 has incredible expansion room. There are four 5.25" drive bays and six
3.25" drive bays. Yes, you read that right, "SIX" 3.25" drive bays.
The PC20-333333 is one of the most user friendly cases
I've ever came across. This is a very good tweaker's case. Among its many unique
features are:
- Completely tool free entry
- Slide out motherboard tray
- 100% thumb screws usage
- Fan speed adjustment
- Removable drive tray
- Available in black or silver
The price of the PC20 starts at $140. This will give you
the bare case with two front fans and a rear exhaust fan. You will still need to
add the power supply. Our fully loaded test unit came with a 300 watt power
supply, two side fans and a chimney fan, bringing the price to $210. A bit on
the high side, yes, but cheap when compared to other all aluminum cases.
