Front to back hard drive orientation gives slightly poorer cable management than lateral mounting
The Bitfenix Shinobi surprised me. I just wasn’t sure what to expect after reading some reviews of the Colossus online. Sure the Colossus had been a unique design, but it really wasn’t my cup of tea. The clean and subtle styling impressed me more than...
Abstract: The BitFenix Shinobi Window is a standard mid-tower case that features a lot of standards like toolless installation, two fans, and top front USB and audio ports. There’s nothing very exciting about the case and that makes it perfect for modders who ha...
lack of 2.5″ (SSD) support, front panel connectors
Despite having couple flaws Shinobi Window edition is very high quality case. They could have possibly made it a bit more silent with some resonance absorbing foams etc. However it is currently one of the best midsized cases I’ve seen. Having stock in...
Great look, Nice feature set, Good toolfree features, Good cable management, Four USB 2.0 ports, Roomy, well organized interior, “SofTouch” coating,
Lackluster cooling performance, Only two fans included, No front panel USB 3.0 or eSATA,

There is a lot to like about the BitFenix Shinobi Window case. It looks great, has excellent cooling and cable management features, and doesn't break the bank. The SofTouch finish will tolerate fingerprints and minor daily grime better than glossy altern...
The BitFenix Shinobi leaves me of two minds at the end of this review. As far as assembly goes, I can't really argue with what BitFenix has done here: the Shinobi is just plain incredibly easy to build, among one of the easiest I've ever worked with. Noth...

The BitFeix Shinobi is a fantastic PC case for the budget minded gamer that wants great looks combined with user friendly features without breaking the bank. ...
The BitFenix Shinobi turned out to be a great little chassis, full of nice features. The Shinobi looks great with its brushed aluminum accents and clean lines. The smoked acrylic, uniquely cut, window and the SofTouch Surface Treatment also help keep ...
