Priced around $120, this case offers room for three 5.25" devices (one convertible to 3.5"), seven 3.5" drive bays and seven expansion slots. The interior seems to feature largely tool-free installation, as well as the usual cut-outs for cable management, holes for watercooling tubes, a cut-out for easy CPU cooler swapping, and dust filters.

Cooling is provided by two 120mm red LED front fans (with LED on/off switch), a 120mm rear fan, a 230mm side fan and a 120mm top fan. On top of that, the case also has room for two 120/140mm front fans on the HDD rack, an additional 120/140mm fan in the top, a 120/140mm bottom fan, and up to four 120mm fans in the side if you remove the 230mm fan.

The Armor Evolution supports graphics cards with a length of up to 369mm and CPU coolers with a height of up to 165mm. A top I/O panel provides two USB 3.0 ports, two USB 2.0 ports, and HD audio.
