For a chassis under $100, Xigmatek packs a lot of bang for the buck into this mid tower named Midguard. The build went smooth, as expected, and I found most, but not all of the tool-less features to do a good job at what they are built to do. The i...
Nice looking, Prepared for watercooling, Well packed, No tools required
No SSD support, Side door doesnt fit perfect
I have to say this is a nice mid class case, you can pick it up for around 50$ which is quite reasonable to this type of case. The setup was easy to install in the case and I had no issues with the installation process. The case looks quite nice with a...
With an aggressive price and a feature list as long as my component wish list, the Midgard is well priced and decked out. It has its shortcomings, sure, but for one of the first attempts by Xigmatek to enter the chassis market, it's incredible. It loo...

There's a lot going for the Midgard and it's definitely a good first attempt at the case markets. For such an inexpensive case the feature-set is great. There are all the tool-less features, black frame, plenty of optional cooling possibilities an...

I have to admit, I was a bit sceptical when I was told that the Xigmatek Midgard will offer more "bang for your buck" at the given price point than any other chassis. Sure the case has a few shortcomings, like the inadequate locking mechanism for the e...
Abstract: We all know the name Xigmatek as being synonymous with high quality, high performance CPU and GPU cooling solutions. However, they have now released their first case called the Midgard which they hope will take on some of the best of the best in the $...
Le Midgard de Xigmatek profite d’une bonne qualité de fabrication. La finition est sans défaut tandis que son design marie à la fois un caractère sportif et discret. Ce boitier répond aux besoins d’un grand nombre de c...
A lissue de ce test, on peut dire que le Midgard dispose de solides atouts mais aussi de points faibles : Tout dabord, les moins : A mes yeux, le plus gros défaut de ce boitier est le manque notable de filtres à poussières, il en faudrait...
Design Sobre et Black, Fonctionnalités, Montage, Silence de fonctionnement, Régulation, Câble management, Compatible SSD, Finition, Prix
Performance juste en Low, Système sans vis CG
Nous pourrions la faire très courte pour cette conclusion, avec une phrase de jeuns qui donnerait "Cest de la bombe bébé, vas y fonce", mais ce nest pas notre style.Avec ce premier boitier, Xigmatek adresse un message fort en proposant, ...
Prix !, Intelligence de conception, Qualité de fabrication, Potentiomètre offert, Silencieux, Port eSATA en façade
Ventilation faible par défaut, Trop peu de filtres à poussière
Sil faut retenir une seule chose pour ce Midgard, cest son prix. Ses principaux concurrents sont le CM 690 de Cooler Master et le Three Undred de Antec, mais ces deux boîtiers disposent finalement de moins datouts, ils offrent moins de valeur ajout...
