Palo Alto Products ATCX Mid Tower/Desktop ATX

The Test

With the Palo Alto ATCX, we introduce AnandTech's new case testing methodology, which includes temperature and noise testing following your suggestions and requests. We've created a whole page with all the details of the method.

With the ATCX, there are three different purchase options as mentioned above - standard exhaust fan, horizontal fan assembly, and no fan. So we tested each configuration.

It's a little hard to tell here which configuration is best or even what's going on here, but don't worry, more graphs are to come on the next page.
