Love the concept, Hate the performance..... Shame

Nice to see the Ostrog updated. Unfortunately, the update included some poor performance numbers (especially temperatures.) Was the original just as bad in cooling?

This case looks nearly identical to my thermaltake S71, down to the internals. Rebrand perhaps?

Well, it's actually supposed to be red, but it's a bright red so it's closer to the orange scale than, say, barn red. And the LEDs are red too, they just "blew out" the photo. For a better color reference, see the images on the Ostrog ADV web page.

I don't know why the airflow out the back was so poor, but yes I checked it and yes it was low. You would think that the intake fans would boost it, but I have a feeling the positive pressure was just bypassing the CPU cooler and going out the top vent on the case. The original performed better.

Most case brands have limited to no manufacturing capability, and the chances of both coming from the same ODM are better than zero.
