Case Xigmatek Blast Case EATX 4 ARGB fans - EN46353

Are you looking for a spacious and well-ventilated case for your next build? The Xigmatek Blast EN46353 is a middle tower that accommodates motherboards from Mini ITX to Extended ATX and is aimed at mid-range to more serious configurations with large graphics cards and massive cooling. On the side, you have a tempered glass panel to see the hardware and ARGB effects. The package already includes 4 fans, so you have basic airflow right out of the box. A maximum graphics card length of 410 mm and a cooler height of up to 165 mm give you plenty of freedom in choosing components.

What you get: a chassis that easily accommodates larger E-ATX motherboards and does not struggle with cooling. Support for up to 3 x 120 mm or 2 x 140 mm fans on top, plus up to 3 x 120 mm to the MB panel, 2 x 120 mm on the PSU shroud, 1 x 120 mm at the bottom, and 1 x 120 mm at the back allows you to adjust airflow according to whether you are chasing silence or lower temperatures. The nine expansion slots are convenient if you are considering thicker GPUs with three slots, plus additional cards. Internally, you have separate slots for 1 x 3.5" and 1 x 2.5", which covers a standard scenario with one HDD for storage and one SSD for the system. On the front panel, you have 1 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0, and HD Audio, so your main peripherals are within easy reach.

• Middle tower form factor with support for ATX, Micro ATX, Mini ITX, and Extended ATX motherboards, providing flexibility from compact to more serious systems.
• Side panel made of tempered glass, allowing you to see the components and ARGB fans without sacrificing strength.
• 4 fans included, so you have a ready basic airflow without buying coolers right at assembly.
• Rich cooling options: up to 3 x 120 mm or 2 x 140 mm on top, up to 3 x 120 mm to the MB panel, 2 x 120 mm on the PSU shroud, 1 x 120 mm at the bottom, and 1 x 120 mm at the back for flexible air distribution.
• Maximum graphics card length of 410 mm and air cooler height of 165 mm, allowing installation of most modern, long GPUs and taller tower coolers.
• 9 expansion slots, convenient for thicker three-slot graphics cards, vertical mounts (with additional bracket), or additional expansion cards.
• Separate slots for 1 x 3.5" and 1 x 2.5", suitable for a standard combination of HDD for mass storage and SSD for operating system and games.
• Front panel with 1 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0, and HD Audio, for quick access to flash drives, headphones, and other peripherals.

Who it is suitable for: if you want a mid-tower case with space for an E-ATX motherboard, a long graphics card, and good ventilation with already included fans, this chassis is a quite logical choice. It is suitable for gaming configurations with a powerful GPU, a streaming setup, or a workstation that does not need many drives but values airflow and expansion cards. If you are chasing a large number of HDD/SSD or built-in power supply, you will be limited here – the case is without PSU and with a minimal number of drive slots.

The strongest feature of the Xigmatek Blast EN46353 is the combination of support for E-ATX, the many fan options, and the included 4 units, plus the glass panel for a clean, organized build with visible hardware. You get a stable base for a serious configuration without worrying about space and cooling.
