Introduction:


Aerocool Aero Racer Pro Enclosure

    We’ve all heard of, or perhaps are lucky enough to even have, a full-fledged computer in a car. AeroCool chose to go to the other extreme and bring the car to the computer… or, in this case, the chassis. The AeroRacer series feature styling reminiscent of a race car. The particular model up for review today is the AeroRacer Pro, which is a mid-tower chassis. When it comes to versatility and ventilation, the AeroRacer Pro has no competition. The overall lines are styled like a race car, and it features both an enormous 400mm side intake fan (which reminds me of the large radiator cooling fans on a car) and an “Engine Start” button for powering up the computer. The massive intake fan has up to 250CFM of airflow for maximum ventilation, and an optional rear 120mm fan for advanced cooling. Tool-free assembly, convenient dual USB 2.0, microphone, and speaker ports, and easy-access power and reset buttons finish off this little beauty.

    That’s all well and good, I hear you say, but is it worth the money? Let’s take a closer look at the AeroCool AeroRacer Pro and see for ourselves.
 

About the Company:

In the beginning
AeroCool Advanced Technologies (AAT) was founded in 2001. At the earlier stage of operation we were committed to share our technical expertise and innovative design in providing total-solution for thermal management in industrial and personal computers.

Making progress
With our solid and innovative design experience in thermal engineering, AAT was the first company to adapt U-shape heat pipe and heat column (1” diameter heat pipe) technologies to CPU cooler design for desktop computer. These new applications became a trend and leading the market in heat pipe application in desktop computer industry. Our unique and innovative design also made “AEROCOOL” as one of the favorite brand name in over-clocking and PC DIY (Do-It-Yourself) market.

Expansion
With this successful experience in thermal products, AAT has expanded its product lines to computer peripherals such as computer case, fan, mutli-function control panel and power supply etc. With our creative thinking and innovative design, we had launched some successful PC cases and multi-function control panels (for example, we were the first company to introduce “Double-Bay” (2 standard 5-1/4” bay) front panel controller).

Customer cooperation
We have also developed new plans to OEM and ODM business worldwide. Our mission is to work closely with our partners and customers and to continue to manufacture the highest quality products to satisfy the market demand. We will continue to strive to achieve our goals and continue to improve our marketing and customer services through "e-business" and "e-marketing". We always welcome customer suggestions and recommendations.

Features

Enclosure protection

    Like many other enclosures I have reviewed, the item was shipped in the retail box with no protection. What AeroCool did was to wrap the retail box in some plastic wrap to protect the box. This simple and cheap action protects the retail box from the rigors of shipping. On the front and rear of the retail box is a picture of each color enclosure they offer, while the side panel has the features of the enclosure. Time for the inside, and we see that the AeroRacer Pro is wrapped in plastic and protected with preformed Styrofoam blocks - which is typical for enclosure protection.
