Cougar Panzer MAX Full Tower Gaming Case Review

[@tamashiinochogokin]

i like this kind of review with comforting music, slow pace and rather quiet atmosphere...

[@xephh]

So awesome that you're getting more of a notice from bigger companies. Great achievement in such a short time! Congrats man, keep up the quality content.

[@Puntingmate]

I love how professional your reviews are. Better than most dedicated review channels.

[@SnakePoisonStudios]

Great job with the video. I always appreciate high quality content like yours.

[@gerrycrisostomo6571]

In my opinion, this is the best full tower case I have seen so far. It simply combines good looks, functionality, rigidity and overall quality into a great package. And it still has the option to install the optical drives.

[@DevastationSix]

I love how you're branching out more on your videos! Good work! Can't wait for more videos

[@ashscott6068]

The front and sides just open? Now where am I supposed to borrow screws from if I add an extra drive?

[@XOR_andOR]

I am extremely glad I found your channel. I am really enjoying the content. it's fantastic. I only wish you success man.

[@knuckles1006]

I am building a gaming PC using this awesome case. Is the power supply in your build drawing air from the top.Video is too dark to tell for sure. Also, did you leave the bottom tunnel cover off permanently? The bottom fan will pump some outside air down towards the power supply making me think that having the power supply draw air from the top is the better way to position the power supply, correct?

[@CJEXP]

So i am building with this case and everyone says it looks UGLY. I would have to say in this video yes but there is the inside parts making it look bad. I'm going to beauty mine up here in a week or so when I film the video. Can't wait!

[@canadianwildlifeservice8883]

Mesh front provides the best airflow and it easy to clean with just a swipe of a vacuum cleaner. No fabric filters to wash either. These types of cases are becoming rarer and rarer to find since everybody seems to like the look of the glass front covers these days.

[@GabrielRandandan]

Excellent review, do you know if I can put a 360mm watercooler on top?

[@Whazup4341]

Hey, just wondering. What exact are the specs of your computer you use mainly in your days?

[@canadianwildlifeservice8883]

I like the idea of a fan controller on the front panel, but don't most people just let the motherboard control the speed based on CPU/system temperature?

[@lunarie8622]

Hi Rocket Jump Ninja! You may know me from other comments Now ive tried some mice and I have to say the Razer Deathadder fits well with my tiny hand. I know of the infamous double clicking crap and sensor issues, my question is that is it a good buy still? Im not worried about the sensor (More of a casual gamer, Silver 4 RIP) just that the double clicking issue and how quick it happens.

[@Demimlg]

That only happened on the original deathadder from 2007 (The one with 1800dpi)

[@lunarie8622]

Thanks for replys, I do like the G502 but it's to heavy for me, does the G402 feel like a mini G502? Will be picking up a normal deathadder for casual gaming, if im going sweaty tryhard i'll use the logitech.

[@lunarie8622]

Demimlg What only happened in the 2007 version?

[@lunarie8622]

gLOWbal Thanks, how about the sensor though?

[@lunarie8622]

gLOWbal How about the deathadder?

[@superman-xs6tp]

Hey man thanks for the review, great job. I have the case with the LED fans. I have a question. Does your latching doors have a vibration noise? When my PC starts up on initial rev up the whole case rattles. any advice or maybe a suggestion about a seal i can purchase for the doors.

[@Mrdirtysanchezstick]

First attempt build. Bought this case about a month ago and its a beauty. Still buying parts but im super excited to start building. Anyone got any good guidelines to go by when starting the build? I used to work for an electrical company so cable management will be cake.... I hope lol

[@lilbullet158]

@Rocket Jump Ninja I'm hoping you could help me out with ? Just a question to help ease my concerns. Could you please tell me, would the following fit into this case ? ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING WIFI II AMD Ryzen AM4 ATX motherboard, Noctua NH-D15 chromax black Dual-Tower CPU cooler (140mm)

[@daniellara299]

I bought online the regular mid Tower cougar panzer it looks like this one but i want to put some rgb fans in the front but i see that the front Black dust filter Covers a lot so just wanted to know if if i will still see the rgb light well in the day or not so much ¿ thank u for your time

[@itisgore]

So it comes already built in are do you need to Buy it separately

[@marcusevonblade2804]

Where do the case button cables go (the ones at 2:03)? The ones near the sata led cable/ they are like little boxes with 2 pins inside. Dont know where these connect to.

[@dimitrioskaranasios40]

Can you put a 3.5" drive in the 5.25" drive bay with the converter tray?

[@kaywoodparsons5307]

Just got the same case. Can you explain wheere the two fans at front connect. Also there are two wires coming from the fan speed switch. Dont know how to connect . thanks

[@meatballman3919]

Is it possible for you to review the Logitech G Pro Mouse? You can pre-order it on their website. Thanks for the reviews :D

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Oh nice, it's official now. Thanks!

[@isaacmyron1692]

+Rocket Jump Ninja It looks really great just like a 303 but with a safer shape

[@isaacmyron1692]

+Rocket Jump Ninja It looks really great just like a 303 but with a safer shape

[@leef9834]

Also the Finalmouse TOURNAMENT PRO if you could please.

[@kaijiex3]

Does not ship to your location is what Zy got on amazon... I wanted to get that mouse too and same thing happened to me

[@twistedfantasyy]

Hey Zy! I know my comment may be a bit off-topic, but I was wondering if you could do a 5 minute video of you typing on the Logitech G810? I'm getting the Logitech G810 in 2 months (or a Cooler Master Masterkeys Pro S) and I was wondering how it'd be like. :)

[@dimitrioskaranasios40]

Can you add another 3.5" drive to the 5.25" drive bay using one of the converter bays?

[@rutger9745]

can you change the colors from the case or is that not possible?

[@nlmaster9811]

Can we expect a review on the new Logitech Pro mouse anytime soon? I have larger hands and I'm curious about how you think it performs.

[@hollowcrix1795]

does it bring everything for you to play video gams

[@calebconaway2675]

So does the LED lighting not come with it

[@tec_x_livid878]

Did the stuff come with the equipment

[@capitaldd5840]

I cant get the fan speed controller to work...? They just stay at low speed

[@capitaldd5840]

So, a year plus later update.. I had to return the case to Newegg. Newegg were great about the process..Cougar - never responded to any of my calls or emails. Cougar really left me high and dry on this situation. Worst customer service ever....I'll never buy another cougar component- why would I..? I've read a ton of reviews on their products where they are non responsive to customer problems. Will probably swap the case out soon anyways - it's physically huge. Probably too big For most home desk situations. Cheers

[@mmcallery]

do you think you'll ever get into full tech reviews? like LTT or jays two cents in terms of product coverage? i know id like to see it, i quite enjoy your review style

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Not sure yet, going to test some ideas while also being open to offers from the companies that are sending me products. It's up to them and also what seems to get popular on here. Sometimes you choose where to swim, other times you just let the current guide you. We'll see.

[@TheSupremeShogun]

Good to see you doing something different. Love your vids keep it up

[@metalftw75]

nice review man. I really am enjoying your channel. Was that a headphone hanger on the front of the case I saw?

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Thanks, and yep!

[@masquecenamarada945]

I bought the g302, I never had a good mouse before and it feels really good but the cable really fucks it all up, I tried many ways to put it, but with my desk It always ends up bieng annoying , I'm thinking about selling it

[@masquecenamarada945]

Zy, Is the SS 300 cable like the g302 ?

[@zingwilder9989]

Thank you for the great review! Should I build again, I'm considering this case.

[@darkojerinic5401]

I was just looking around for full tower cases I already own thermaltake chaser mk-I but would not mind little switch just to change scenary.Looks good case but flimsy door panel is a deal braker, shame I like the looks and drivebay storage in behind motherboard.

[@rahulfattahzulkarnain4609]

yo Zy, the logitech g pro is coming out. are you excited?

[@bolbolegypttuber]

please if you have any video talk about how to install Thermaltake Ultimate 3.0 in Panzermax ... please

[@joeker022]

Are you doing reviews for the Scream one and logitech g pro when they come out? looking for new mice and kinda interested in these two

[@RocketJumpNinja]

www.rocketjumpninja.com/2016/06/21/upcoming-reviews/

[@joeker022]

BTW you don't have a final mouse tourney pro review is it because the ergo basically the same ?

[@pagra90]

How heavy is the case? The one experiences anywhere.

[@RocketJumpNinja]

I said it in the review... I don't remember exactly, might have been 11kg.

[@UltimateGattai]

It feels heavy, especially when you use heavy parts (my PSU and mobo are both heavy on their own).

[@UltimateGattai]

Does anyone else find their window side of this case rattles easily? It's like one side of the top doesn't clip in or connect properly. Not a big issue, but it is annoying for me.

[@ameerioo4757]

I'm looking to buy what is the specs can it run games today in good quality pls help

[@baki1682]

This is just a case lol.

[@d00fin]

Logiteh G Pro Gaming Mouse inc??

[@drumiec]

Nice review, kinda expect, that you will show most pros ✔ and cons ✖ like You did with mouse/keyboards. Personally I'm waiting for some quake live videos, showing some cool tactics.

[@tashbennett3562]

Great review mate just ordered this case myself after watching.

[@Avareee.]

Is this case worth the price?

[@whalescience8831]

Gökhan Ö yes

[@nazarenofernandez2549]

Zy, what do you think about your ATH-M50x?

[@ImTarco]

Not sure if Zy will respond, but I have the m50x headphones, and I can say they're quite fantastic. Not exactly a "flat" sound signature, but definitely a really good one. The extra cables make the headphones work perfectly for home office use as well as on-the-go listening. They barely leak sound and let almost no sound in. I genuinely really enjoy using mine for music listening, movies, and gaming. :)

[@nazarenofernandez2549]

Wolfgangeth I know, I just wanted his opinion. Now that he has a lot more subscribers, is harder to reply.

[@RocketJumpNinja]

I'm also trying to get a heap of videos done before I move and start the next stage. I use the ATH-M50x for comparisons... I figure they're a good point of reference because they're kind of mid range for most of the headphones I'm testing. And I like them.

[@nazarenofernandez2549]

+Rocket Jump Ninja Cool, thanks for the reply!

[@joaquinnicolas2478]

I fall in love, appear an alternative to corsair... i like it

[@queefedworm]

can you send me an amazon link looking it up on amazon doesnt show me it

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Not available yet.

[@queefedworm]

+Rocket Jump Ninja alright I'll wait

[@lancel3933]

Zy can you also take a loock at the cougar qbx mini itx case ita beautiful

[@ferryansony2161]

the new Logitech mouse looks like a hybrid between G302 and G100s :D i think you'll love it Zy!

[@TheDuckseason]

Dude, Buying this one and going to mod some of it water cooled with the quake battlesuit logo airbrushed on the back and this will be for a stream machine. My primary Is going to be Quad damage logo I hope to find the new champions version image someplace making primary the cooler master Master Pro 5 case for that one I really like this panzer case. Going to start my own Tech channel no name yet but i will be up around oct , nov.

[@omenworks]

Good review but you should invest in better lighting. Hard shades and light glares are hard to watch.

[@GotsHank]

I'm in doubt between the EC1-a and the deathadder chroma

[@celestial5713]

You can't go wrong with either, both are great. It all comes up to if you want RGB lights and light switches with mushy side buttons for the amazing shape.

[@berdt4870]

Interesting looking case, i might consider it for the future.

[@MikeAnthonyPhoto]

Weird Question: Instead of a radiator on top bracket, can you install THREE 120mm Fans under the top bracket and TWO 140mm fans on top of the top bracket? So there will be 5 Blue LED fans on the top of the computer pushing air out. Fans on Both sides of the top bracket with both Blu-Ray drives still installed. Does the Blu-Ray drive bay have to come out in order to have a 3rd fan attached under the top bracket? Is so, then what about THREE 120mm Fans on top of the top bracket and TWO 140mm Fans under the top bracket ??

[@bognarattila5115]

Good video and this gaming case are the best now in the shops! 👍😎

[@jaja1818]

seems you got some cougar love!!lols..yeah this case is pretty nice for what you pay for..hope they do a matx-mItx version of it too..i've grown old enough to be more practical than showy with my system..and a small case that can fit a large gpu and matx case will do me just fine esp when i want to carry it somewhere for lan parties

[@djdoubx96000]

I hope you are going to build some custom PCs anytime in the future :D Great video as always RJN!

[@PsychoDuckTV9000]

Hope to see your opinion on Logitech G Pro Gaming Mouse asap!

[@rawkudo7441]

You should have over million subs !!!!

[@connorham8]

You've got beautiful hands. No homo. It's awesome seeing your channel grow. You've helped me out a lot, I'll always be a fan. Your music is good too. :)

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Haha thanks for all the kind words and support, definitely appreciated. :)

[@Terence.McKenna]

That thing is massive, and I thought my NZXT Phantom 530 was big!

[@givemeajackson]

i once lived in a corsair 900d for about two months...

[@justinvanilla9785]

Guys we got a quadruple threat. Amazing at video games and does case, mice, and keyboard reviews. :o

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Nice of you to say, but I won't be good at case reviews for a long while yet! Plus you forgot headsets and mouse pads. Just sayin'

[@justinvanilla9785]

+Rocket Jump Ninja Haha, I guess I did forget those. :) But I thought this case review was pretty in depth, and much better than most reviews out there and it was actually pretty good imo.

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Good to hear, thanks!

[@eatyofacen00b]

Hey man, Just thought I'd say. Nice review. Really enjoying your stuff. Keep it up.

[@Lerberuz]

Btw, Logitech G303 or Roccat Kone Pure Military? Small hands, uses palm grip and can use fingertip!". Thanks!

[@alanpereyra5503]

Both would be fine. 303 is cheaper i think

[@Hello-nx5yy]

ec 1a

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Depends how small, but I'd rather the Roccat Kone Pure... great features, higher quality mouse. But the G303 is a top choice so... either really.

[@Oncenplayer]

if i would be you i would take the roccat if your able to afford the optical version because it has the better ergonomics for moust hands and the sensors i mean most of the time you wont sense a real difference except you got some defekt one soo if you have the money and the will to spend it on a mouse get the roccat i think its the much saver choice because the logitech g303 is really hit or miss with its shape

[@quackers1796]

I got my Kone Pure Military for $15 on ebay. They usually go for less than $30 though really cheap and in my experience its better than the G303

[@s20081220]

Is dream machine dm1 pros review coming soon . :)

[@warr3ngon]

Great video, only thing is you need better lighting while filming the inside of the case. Other than that its a good case review.

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Thanks! Yeah I think the battery on the video light was going flat and I didn't notice until play back. Will definitely make sure it's right in the next one.

[@muhammadihyaulumuddin5881]

apex m800 review please?

[@higifnr]

I know this is your first ever case review but... There is nothing called Macro-ATX or L-ATX. There's Micro-ATX and XL-ATX. And the fan power connectors are called PWM connectors

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Ah that's a typo, I type "macro" a lot more due to photography stuff, slip of the fingers... thanks for pointing it out! Meant to be micro, added a note. Also I was just copying from this: cougargaming.com/products/cases/panzermax/ I have no clue about mother board sizes, not my area of expertise. As for what the fan power connectors are called... I said it in a way everyone can understand, so I stand by that one!

[@RocketJumpNinja]

The help is appreciated, thanks! I know I could've put more research into this case, but chances are I won't do many case reviews, so I'm just testing how things go. If there's a considerable supply and demand on them, then maybe, and then I'll put the time in to the research. At the moment, I'm thinking I should just focus on the things that really interest me... mice, of course, pads, keyboards... and I'm starting to really enjoy headsets too. I love gaming. I'm not that much of a tech enthusiast. Just give me stuff that helps me play better and have more fun! That said, I'll watch the video because now I'm curious.

[@higifnr]

Rocket Jump Ninja Nice! And here you go: I found an article that explains how ESD can damage the PSU ecmweb.com/content/electrostatic-discharge-causes-effects-and-solutions I may suggest you also check out the main channel for that guy in the video which is called LinusTechTips. He has pretty good intermediate and entry level tech content

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Interesting read... I knew about it while building PCs, didn't think it was an issue just running them on carpet though. Good to know this stuff. Thanks for that!

[@higifnr]

Rocket Jump Ninja Glad I helped mate!

[@garyvee6023]

Well done. For a first review, I think you did a good informative job. 1 thumbs up from me. :))

[@Lerberuz]

Keep up the great content!

[@mintlata]

Please review the Logitech G Pro :D

[@louisbdo]

you should do more would be awesome!

Someone got it :'( Can't get it here in Norway :'((

[@bassa69]

great video thanks for uploading the stock fans are horrible

[@huh1656]

you dont want to get better at cable management because that might mean that something keeps disconnecting ;)

[@barknburcu5766]

i just wanna see it when its working

[@matthewchu2734]

tempered glass panel version now available :D

[@mackymode8185]

Where are they being sold at, I can't find any.

[@syvus1307]

cables are not so great but its an amazing build none the less :D

[@syvus1307]

thats also a pretty neat jumper/sweater/whatever in Australia i doont know im british i know nothing about Australia

[@RocketJumpNinja]

True... I'm new to this whole "make a PC look awesome" thing. Mine sits under my desk and gets largely ignored. I'm more about what's happening on screen. #gamerlife And I call it a jacket. :D

[@hamada6719791]

Panzer MAX its nice case but big negative Door handle hide almost all ram so its bad choice for rgb and they have new case name evo look better in side door but dont have 5.5 disk so even Cougar Panzer MAX looks better i'm going to corsair 780t i hope Cougar see this comment please change place of door handle its almost kill all window or add place for cd disk in Panzer mid tower

[@AzNWontonz]

Zy u ca make case reviews if you want (i like how u only did peripherals) but promise me that you won't make any PC part reviews

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Why would I promise that... here's how this works: I'm trying to expand the channel. If you don't want to see a video about an item, then don't watch it. Leave the rest to me.

[@AzNWontonz]

ok ok

[@NinjaContravaniaManX]

Logitech G Pro review asap please! ;)

[@brandonkey181]

84-0 like to dislike ratio ATM. Wow!

[@pabloishere656]

Zy when are you gonna do a face reveal

[@RocketJumpNinja]

When I start doing make up tutorials.

[@OozyImp]

Logitech just announced a new mouse !

[@xpifpouf]

Cable management = nzxt s340

[@givemeajackson]

i have the s340, and while i agree that the idea with the cable management bracket thingy is absolutely brilliant and that it is a really well thought out case, the phanteks eclipse p400s is a better case in the same sort of category. they really pissed me off when they released it, i had rebuilt my system in the s340 like a month earlier...

[@xpifpouf]

+givemeajackson Same here XD , i have one prob with the s340 , i cant screw my 1070 gaming x in the pcie bracket ,there is like 2mm difference between the 2 hole 😕

[@givemeajackson]

theo marteil that's weird, i did't have any issues with the pci slots (inno3d gtx 980 airboss x4)

[@vpagliarini]

With all the minimalistic and small cases why would someone buy this one? Feels like im in 2012. Nvidia does even support 3/4 way sli anymore.

[@givemeajackson]

soundcards, raid cards, thunderbolt cards, usb cards, pcie ssds, wifi cards... there's still a lot one can do with pcie slots. also, 3/4 way crossfire still works. and some might be bored of the super clean minimalistic sleek cases.

[@vpagliarini]

givemeajackson A case doesnt need to be this big to support ATX mobos. If you are going such high end most current gen boards will some of these features, mATX might be enough, ATX will sure do the job, e-atx isnt even a thing anymore on current gen z170 and x99. I just think the time for unnecessarily big and plasticky cases that try to look like cars but look like toys has passed.

[@vpagliarini]

givemeajackson And if arent using a very high end LGA 2011v3 processor, you wont even have enough PCIe lanes for all of that.

[@MichaelDeVijlder]

While I agree with your comment about the big plasticky cases, there are definitely quite some e-ATX motherboards out there for X99 this generation

[@vpagliarini]

Michael De Vijlder yes, but you dont need them for all the features anymore, Asus z170 deluxe 2 dor example packs it all and its atx. Since im not into mobos that much anymore, could you tell me a lga 2011v3 eATX board that is anyhow compelling?

[@sweeetlow]

zy pls, i just wanna see the face that beautiful voice is coming from :(

[@kmah324]

LOGITECH GPRO MOUSE MY BODY IS READY

[@RocketJumpNinja]

Looks promising!

[@kmah324]

why is the cable braided though :/(I can either unbraid or even change the cable but still). The g pro looks extremely promising. I can't see from photos, apart from the cable(minor), anything wrong with it :). Too bad I can't get it on release though, as it will probably cost $$$$$$$$$$(Australian problems). There is also no(and I mean 0%) chance I can get the mouse for free even if I offer a review in return :( so rip my wallet.

[@kmah324]

SEPTEMBER 10th FOR REAL ;(

[@RocketJumpNinja]

That's not too long away.

[@kmah324]

25 days :(

[@TheSenseiKai]

I CAN'T FUCKING REMOVE THE MOTHERFUCKING PSU COVER. I REMOVED THE THUMBSCREWS AND TRIED THE MOTION OF THE IMAGE. THE DOWN PART DOESN'T MOVE.

[@higifnr]

Wait. Are you using that on a carpet?!?!?! Do you want to fry your components Dude?

[@RocketJumpNinja]

I used to always just put my PC on a wooden board... but this one is huge so I don't really have much choice. How serious a problem would it be, even with the filters in place?

[@higifnr]

Rocket Jump Ninja It's not about dust, it's about electrostatic discharges caused by your PSU's fans, if you can't put it anywhere else just flip the PSU. It will fry it at some point trust me

[@RocketJumpNinja]

I don't understand why the EM discharges would cause components to fry...

[@higifnr]

Rocket Jump Ninja It's the way electric components work, I can't really explain it since I haven't dug into it and everyone seems to treat it as a given thing. Oh and also, obviously if you have it super deep into the carpet it can block airflow. Sorry but I'll do more research on the matter and give you my findings

[@higifnr]

Rocket Jump Ninja Sorry for the typo as well, I meant ESD and not EMD

[@ghostfour5602]

Second :P

[@yoey8024]

first

Same!

[@MrMethadrine]

dammit this review is so depressing
