GameMax unveils new Nex C51 and C31 panoramic-view cases

GameMax has officially announced the launch of the Nex C51 and Nex C31, two new additions to its chassis lineup that bring the popular “panoramic” aesthetic to a more accessible price point. These cases aim to offer the pillar-free, dual-tempered glass look typically reserved for premium enthusiast frames, at a starting price of just $49.99.

The Nex C51 serves as the full-sized ATX offering, designed for builds that require substantial internal volume. Despite its budget-friendly positioning, it supports flagship hardware, including graphics cards up to 410 mm in length and CPU air coolers up to 180 mm tall. Cooling support is equally robust, with the ability to house a 360 mm radiator on the top panel. Connectivity on the front I/O is surprisingly modern for this price bracket, featuring a 20 Gbps USB Type-C Gen 2×2 port to ensure compatibility with high-speed external storage. Additionally, the case includes three 120 mm ARGB fans, but there's space for a total of nine 120 mm fans.

For those looking for a more compact setup, the Nex C31 mirrors its larger sibling's design philosophy in a microATX form factor. It retains the pillar-free glass design and support for 360 mm top radiators, 180 mm tall CPU towers, and 410 mm long GPUs. Like the C51, it comes equipped with three pre-installed 120 mm ARGB fans (supporting up to nine), offering immediate out-of-the-box cooling and lighting without additional purchases.

The Nex C51 starts at $54.99 for the black version, while the white carries a $5 premium. The Nex C31 comes slightly cheaper at $49.99 but also carries the same $5 premium for its white variant.

KitGuru says: Offering a pillar-free, 270-degree view chassis with three ARGB fans and 20 Gbps USB-C for under $50 is mighty impressive.
