THE VIPER GX EXTERIOR

I don't know if the Viper GX looks like a viper or a spacecraft, all i know is that it looks great. Both the top and rear of the tower are covered with glossy plastic.

Raidmax has placed a small clear window on the left side panel.

Quality-wise the glossy plastic used at the front of the Viper GX could be better but it looks very nice so not all is bad.

At the top of the fascia we see the 2.5" hot-swap drive port which is covered with a dust cover.

One slight problem aside quality is that the front door doesn't open all the way which is not very convenient especially if you're sitting on its left.

All three 5.25" bays feature easy-removable covers.

A single 120mm LED fan is placed at the bottom right behind lower end of the fascia (you can also use a 2nd one here).

The I/O is placed at the top and includes the on/off power switch, reset switch, HDD activity LED, power LED, two USB 3.0 ports and the typical headphones and microphone ports.

Room for two more 120mm fans or a 240mm radiator exists beneath the top cover as you can see from the above picture.

Another 120mm fan is placed at the rear along with two rubber grommets, 7 PCI expansion slot covers (plastic/removable), two handles attached to the side panels for easier removal and the PSU area.

Rubber coated thumbscrews keep the side panels secured in place.

At the bottom we see four round rubber feet, room for yet another 120mm fan and two removable air filters.
