Those of you concerned with case cooling will definitely find the following product interesting. Tweak News has just posted a review of the Xclio Propeller, a computer case with a humongous 360mm side fan.

Let’s see what they had to say:

“I should say here that the cooling is not horrible. In fact, it could be much worse. What I'm saying is that the 360mm fan gave me some lofty expectations that the Propeller wasn't able to deliver. In the final analysis, I would still consider the Propeller chassis a good value, but this determination is based more on price than performance. For a budget case, it's got better looks than most in its class, but the case has a few annoying little fit and finish issues and lacks a manual.”


So in the end, the huge fan is more or less a gimmick. Having said that, the case itself is pretty decent, and the price is reasonable. Therefore, if you like the exterior design, it’s worth a look.
