Rosewill, the company behind quality hardware and affordable cases, debuted the redesigned Thor-V2 case earlier this year and has since become one of the most recognized cases by enthusiasts. With its sleek design, jet-black paint and red LED intake fan, the Thor-V2 is very alluring from the outside. Rosewill engineers have made the Thor-V2 a competitive case with its innovated internal design, making it a customer’s choice award.

Thor-V2 comes in at an affordable price and well equipped to satisfy most needs of enthusiasts who are looking for an ATX full tower case. With abundance of features inside and out, it is a lustful case–especially if you are one who is particulate about clean cables and thorough ventilation topped off with an ‘icing-flavored’ outer design.

Browsing the internet the Thor-V2 featured the price tag averaging around an affordable price of $129.99 and available in a beautiful color scheme of white-on-black design for around $139.99. Thor-V2 shows vast desirability by those who currently own the case–satisfying affordability and enthusiasts’ requirements combined.

Online photos of the Thor-V2 certainly have not done it much justice, as its size is a tad deceiving—much larger than it appears (Objects in mirror are closer than they appear).
