Xclio is a fairly new computer hardware manufacturer, but if anyone has been on Bigbruin.com in the past few months they would notice many Xclio reviews ranging from computer cases to power supplies. I had the chance to review the first item from Xclio, the A380 Super Tower Case, and considering how impressive that case was I couldn't wait to review this latest unit.


Xclio sent over another full tower case for review, the "Wind Tunnel Extreme Cooling PC Case" (model number WTBK). This case has dual 25cm fans on the side panel for silent cooling as well as some other features and refinements not found on the A380. Before getting to the review of the Wind Tunnel, lets see what the Xclio website says about the product.

Packaging:

The box that the Xclio Wind Tunnel arrived in looked very much like the one the Xclio A380 Super Tower was packed in. There are lots of large graphics of the case, along with the corporate logo and slogan. On the side of the box are most of the key features and specifications, as well as some details on what makes this case stand out from an 'ordinary' case.
