BitFenix Launches Ronin PC Chassis

BitFenix Launches Ronin PC Chassis

BitFenix is proud to reveal its latest ATX chassis creation - Ronin. Featuring enhanced cooling capabilities, DIY-friendly features, unique styling, and legendary BitFenix quality, Ronin represents a next-level chassis design that shows your opponents no mercy. Modern, stylish, and clean, with a menacing all-black finish, Ronin is the epitome of BitFenix design. 

The top and front panels, coated in BitFenix SofTouch Surface Treatment for excellent stain resistance and quality feel, are bordered by micro-mesh strips that not only perfectly compliment the matte black exterior, but also act as additional ventilation.

Moving to the side panel, users are greeted by a massive see-through acrylic window that allows enthusiasts to clearly see their hardware payload. Here, BitFenix innovates yet again with the Stealth Cover - an easy to install panel that effectively covers up optical drives, hard disks, power supply, and cabling for a clean and tidy look. The Stealth Cover, adorned in a micro-texture finish, looks incredible on its own, and enables an incredibly clean-looking build even for the most novice builders.

But the beauty of Ronin goes much beyond the surface. On top, Ronin accommodates two 140 mm fans or water cooling radiators up to 240 mm in length. Combined with two 120 mm fan locations in front, one on the bottom, and one on the back panel, Ronin offers tremendous cooling potential for air and water cooling enthusiasts alike. The included FlexCage is modular and removable, enabling direct airflow to the hottest hardware while allowing enough room for graphics cards up to 420 mm in length. Add to that two included 120 mm Spectre fans and space for up to six 3.5" hard disks or 2.5" SSDs, and Ronin makes a killer base for virtually any high-powered rig.

The road to vengeance can be a long one. To get you into battle as quickly as possible, Ronin comes fully loaded with a plethora of DIY-friendly features. Tool-free drive locking mechanisms make securing drives a snap, while plenty of cable management locations enable a clean and tidy build. The large CPU cutout enables swapping of CPU coolers without removing the motherboard, while filtered front intakes and a magnetic bottom filter keeps your system looking good, even on the inside.

And like any BitFenix product, Ronin is made with the same attention to detail and stringent quality checks that BitFenix fans have grown to know and love. With features like the fully coated black interior and all-black cabling, to the brushed aluminum BitFenix logo and mesh PCI slot covers, Ronin exemplifies the BitFenix experience.

BitFenix Ronin will be available on store shelves beginning mid July.

you don't need any, smooth as butter gaming already


It all boils to the display GtG response time and users biological capabilities.

If I had older IPS with GtG 35ms running 60Hz, then I would be very unlikely to notice one dropped frame or minor microstutter.
Then there are people who would not notice several dropped frames on 120Hz 2ms GtG screen.

I want no less than 240Hz screen capable to take 240Hz input and display it frame by frame. (not some interpolation mambo jumbo which gives huge lag)
While it's possible to get OLED screen to do this today, we do not have interface standard to give 1920x1080 240x per second from GA to monitor. Frequency limitation for 1080p is around 152Hz.

That is, btw, why 4k TVs are jokes, because at that resolution you can't get more than 38Hz input and most are limited to 30Hz.
And other nice thing is for those who are willing to compromise to 30Hz: required fill rate for 3840x2160@30Hz is exactly same as 1920x1080@120Hz.

I really wonder how much people with 1st gen 4k TVs will be pissed once 48Hz movies gets around as industrial standard. (they can always run them at 2560x1440)

Which brought me to last interesting point:
There is Chinese 4k TV with cheap electronics/firmware on which guys on HF.C managed to force 1280×720 @ 254Hz.
TV is 39" so it's apparently not Counterstrike competition friendly :)
But I guess 1280x720@254Hz 15" OLED can get good share from gaming market.

Will the new update be a Catalyst 13.x ? I need to replace 13.6 because that old issue with the black and white lines flickering across the screen (just during browsing or with no windows open; I don't use it for games) keeps coming back every time there's a new update.

Based on your limited specs I guess you have very old notebook with mobility x600/x700

If you have such old generation, then your issues are likely from using new drivers.

It's an HP Pavillion g6. I bought it two years ago, new (or so they told us) so I'm not sure.
