Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Review: Azza Hurrican 2000”.
Hey whats up guys mkbhd here with a long-awaited high-definition video review of the as a hurricane, 2000 full tower ATX case. This is a computer case that is definitely going to be used by a lot of enthusiasts who are building their own pcs. Like me – and this was actually one of my top choices when it came to picking a case, so let me first give you guys a hardware tour of it. First, we can go ahead and check out the top here I’ll zoom in a little bit.
You have one two, three, four five and a quarter inch hard drive bays. Then we go ahead and zoom down and behind these two fans on the right hand, side here, you have one two, three four five and you can’t see the sixth one at the bottom. Six hot-swappable hard drive bays, those are all the hard drive bays and they all have a module behind them.
So you can go ahead and release today, just by pulling it to this side and taking it out, and you can see these are all sturdy. Babes are all made of a nice carbon and plastic composite, so this will be great for any baby plan to install in here. I’Ll put the top of the case. We have a couple of other things.
I need to show you on the left hand, side you have two USB 2.0 ports audio in and out a USB 3.0 port and an e SATA port at the top. You also have your power and reset switch. This case is called a hurricane 2004, its extreme air moving abilities. This case happens to move a lot of air, and that is thanks in part to this side panel, which causes two huge 230 millimeter fans as part of the cooling system.
Sure that does make the two windows a little bit smaller for looking into your case, but this isn’t really a showcase. This is really for moving a lot of air and you can see that this is fully enclosed in its own separate enclosure, which is really nice for a side panel. Taking a look inside the case itself, you can see the drive bays at the top there and moving down to the bottom. You see all your hot swappable drive modules, including the two bottom ones which I figured out, are not actually hot swappable.
You solve a lot of room for hard drives, though those are your rainbow tables that are coming from the front io ports, which have your USB three pointer to point o and all those two things that are all house right there and they are used utilizing these Cable management holes that are at the top over here there right there and there so there’s a lot of room for having your cables behind the motherboard tray. To give you a lot of room for airflow through this case, you also have a lot more stuff for air cooling. You can see at the top. There are these spins that sort of jet out the case like this and those house to 200 millimeter fans at the top, which is a lot of top exhaust for any full tower case over on the left-hand side. Here you have a hundred twenty meter, 120 millimeter, going out the back and one hundred and forty millimeter going out that side, the case which I’ll show you in a minute. You also have your motherboard standoffs, which are already on the case, and you have seven PCI expansion slots for your graphics cards, sound cards, USB cars and things like that at the bottom.
You have your power tray, which are. You can obviously mount your power supply on. There’S these four rubber grommets: they can keep your power supply, elevated and that’s especially good. If you’re mounting this something a case like this on a carpet or floor, you need a little bit of room for the fans to blow out.
The interior of this case is also a really nice black. They did a good job with making the whole case black. So if you have a nice black and brown setup going on like I do, is definitely going to match your setup and really stays neutral in an office like this. With the case turned around to the back, you can see their rubber feet that it stands on. The bottom mounted power supply to order cooling grommets on the right which I’ve air cooling holes around them. The seven PCI expansion slots. Next to it, there’s the place where your motherboard I oshio, will go and the place where the back facing fan is, and these two are the two fan controls for the 2 200 millimeter fans at the top. I wish those were in a more accessible place, but it’s still nice to have and then at the top you have more cooling and another water, cool and gromit.
The entire side of the case behind the motherboard tray is nicely protruded, so you have enough room to hide a lot of cables behind there. Even if you do have you know a lot of graphics cards and all the things you need to write back there. There’S enough room in that side of the as a hurricane 2000 k, so you’ll have plenty of room for cables and you won’t have to worry about having cables in the way of your airflow.
Still, looking at the back of the case here, you can get a good idea of the airflow that you’re going to get with a case like this, with the fins pointing out the back and still pointing a whole lot of air right out. The top of the case – that’s all the hot air coming off the top, and it’s really nicely directed by these fins above the case. That also add to the style of it, which look really good.
Looking from behind into the front of the case here, you can also see that there are four of the hot swappable drive, so any of the drives you put in those four will be hot swappable long as you connect them with those SATA and power cables properly And the other that are below those hot swappable drive bays are just permanent days, so you won’t be able to take them out. I personally don’t use hot swapping that often I typically leave a solid state drive in and two solid, a regular hard drive for storage. But this is always a nice feature to have, and I definitely do appreciate as including it a case with this many fans and this much air cooling is definitely always a really nice thing to see air filters or dust filters on large fans like this, and those Are definitely present both on the power supply tray in the bottom and over here in the front five and a quarter inch base with the mesh on the front.
You also have dust filters, so it’s really nice that, as it includes these with all via the mesh and see through parts of the case, they’ll all have dust filters. So you won’t get anything nasty in there. Overall, the hurricane 2000 cakes by as oh really did, impress me an is one of my favorite full tower cases as it does have support for all types of motherboard sizes and things like that and I really did enjoy it. So the pros of this case I’ll start off with the pros it does have a lot of airflow, almost excessive airflow. So if you’re, using hot parts like the high-end i7 or the higher-end AMD chips, you’re going to want to use these or if you have a really hot graphics card, and things like that, this case is definitely going to be beneficial for you and the cons of The case: well, if you look up the dimensions, it is a pretty big case. So if you don’t have enough room for this in your setup, you might want to look for a smaller mid tower case or even a smaller size, full tower case, but make sure you have enough room for your parts.
So if you really don’t have a size limit and you really want to go all out with a high airflow high performance case, then may I suggest the as a hurricane 2000. This is an mkbhd with a high-definition video review. I’Ll talk to you guys in the next one, thanks for watching peace. .
