MGE VIPER Gaming Case Review

Model:  VIPER

Manufacturer:  MGE

Provider:  Geeks

Reviewed By:  Tom

Review Date:  03/27/05

 

  I get to check out a lot of pre modified cases here at ExtremeMhz…so it takes a really unique case to catch me off guard and leave my jaw on the floor. Thanks to the Computer Geeks, I’ll be reviewing one of those rare cases – The MGE Viper. Spawned from MGE’s XG Gamer division the Viper boasts practically every modification a case has ever been subjected to. We’ll take a closer look and see if the Viper has any real strength under all that flash!

 

Packaging and Contents

 

**click to enlarge**


The Viper was shipped out to me double boxed and the inner box was in great shape. Make a note of this…it will be important later. The box itself has the most propaganda I’ve ever seen on a case, pre-mod or otherwise. There are some good little bits in there but you’ve got to dig. The chassis itself is packaged the standard way – two Styrofoam end caps and in a plastic bag.
