Aerocool DS 200 Midi Tower PC Chassis

Aerocool introduces a new midi tower from its award-winning Dead Silence series. New DS 200 chassis has been fitted with a variety of refinement and features, making it an outstanding product in the market. Aerocool equipped both of the side-panels of the DS 200 with special insulation mats to reduce the noise coming from the inside of the PC. Additionally, one fan controller has been integrated and thicker 0,8 mm SECC material has been used for the whole structure.

One of the obvious highlights of the DS series is the rich color choice offered by Aerocool. The users can choose from total of six colors, including the classy black, black/white, red, orange, blue, and green. Another choice is the new value for money "Lite Edition". All DS 200 are equipped with a special top-cover, which can be removed and replaced by a mesh-style top-cover to boost the airflow capabilities. Aerocool offers an optional side panel with a window for those, who like to show-off the built-in components of their rig.

The DS 200 offers much space on the inside for latest hardware components and a tool-free mounting mechanisms for optical drives, hard drives and solid state disks. Up to five 3,5 inch HDD or seven 2,5 inch HDD or SSD can be installed. Common mainboard form-factors such as ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX are fully supported as well as VGA cards with a length of up to 29 centimeters, or even up to 41 centimeters after removing the center 3,5 inch HDD cage.

Much choice is offered when it comes to cooling: Both air-cooling and water-cooling fans will be satisfied. Big CPU coolers with a height of 17 centimeters can be mounted without hassle thanks to the special opening inside the mainboard-tray for back-plate based mounting systems. To further ease the cable management process, several pass-through openings with rubber-protections are located in the mainboard-tray. 240- or 280-millimeter water-cooling solutions can be mounted in the front or the top of the DS 200 chassis. Power supply units with a length of 22 centimeters can be installed easily as well.

Aerocool has put special effort into the silence capabilities of the DS 200 chassis. Both of the supplied side panels are equipped with special insulation mats, which has significant influence on noise-reduction. Anti-vibration shockproof rubber has been used for all 2,5 inch and 3,5 inch bays as well as the PSU. In addition, two silent case fans are supplied and pre-installed, providing steady airflow out of the box!

Lastly, the Lite Edition is introduced, aiming for users with slightly different focus. The value-for-money version of the DS 200 is supplied with standard side-panels (without insulation mats). Furthermore, both the center 3,5 inch cage and the auto-eject front-panel (for ODD) are not included in the package.
