BitFenix Portal Mini ITX Chassis Review - Product Gallery

Right, first off my apologies. Our photo studio is all white, hence photographing white products is a bit of a nightmare. As you can see everything about the Portal is rounded and thus follows that curved trend and the design might hint towards a certain video game.

The chassis looks slick with some dark elements. There is no front door or bezel in place. This also means that there is no space for 5.25" devices like opticals. The big rounded black button obviously is for power.
 

On both sides you will notice air intakes and exhausts, despite its small size the airflow is pretty okay in this one. The Portal has one 120 mm fan fitted in the front and one 80 mm fan in the rear. This creates a push-pull airflow inside the system. 

At the right side we spot the panel I/O functionality. You get two USB 3.0 connectors. Located here are the microphone and audio jacks as well.

At the rear of the Portal we see openings for the I/O panel, power supply (SFX form factor) and two expansion slots. Judging from the looks the chassis seems to be made out of SECC Steel and some Plastic and aluminum paneling. Nearby to the I/O panel opening is a double 80mm exhaust fan (one fan can be moved upwards and downwards). Fairly identical to most modern enthusiast cases, the power supply is located in the bottom compartment, and ATX does not fit - you will need a small SFX from factor at a maximum 10 cm in length (100 x 125 x 63.5 mm).
