Introduction:

Last time we had a chance to review something from Tagan they provided us an amazing ITZ 1300 watt power supply that just simply is top of its class. Today we get to review a more affordable computer upgrade. Today Tagan has provided us the latest from their chassis lineup; the CS-EL Diablo BM mid-tower case. Though Tagan’s specialty is in the computer power supply market, they also source some custom computer cases and hard drive enclosures from third party manufacturers. The Diablo case has a lot of great features so let’s get to it!

The Tagan CS-EL Diablo case was sent to us in its retail packaging. This box was fairly large and was a bit too large for our photo booth. The case inside is surrounded by two large pieces of foam at the top and bottom of the case. The case is also surrounded in a plastic bag to prevent dust and scratches. Included with the case is a User’s Manual, an I/O Shield plate, an internal motherboard speaker, four plastic push-pin fan mounts, motherboard installation screws and nuts, and five sets of 5.25” drive bay rails.
