Aigo has released the Yufeng W70 PC case, offering a budget-friendly entry into the 'aquarium' chassis market. This design removes the front A-pillar to showcase internal components, which appeals to builders who prioritize aesthetics over traditional structural framing. The move provides a low-cost option for users seeking a specific visual style without paying premium prices for high-end cases.
Budget chassis brings side-window aesthetics to compact builds
The chassis supports both M-ATX and ITX motherboards, making it versatile for compact builds. It measures 458x210x438mm, fitting a standard mid-tower footprint while maintaining a side-window focus. The design accommodates graphics cards up to 400mm in length and CPU coolers up to 165mm tall. These dimensions ensure compatibility with most modern high-performance components.
