(TS) – Cougar has introduced a high-end mini gaming tower PC casing, the Cougar Spike, which aims to deliver expansion capabilities in a micro-ATX space-saving design.

Indeed, the Spike uses a screw-less hardware installation system, which is convenient when installing HDDs, SSDs or ODDs.

But we digress. We should first say what type of enclosure Cougar has released, and then proceed from there.

The Spike is a mini-tower which, nonetheless, has enough room inside for graphics cards of 330 mm in length (12.99 inches).

That said, micro-ATX motherboard should fit inside just fine, but anything larger will need a different enclosure.

Then again, micro-ATX motherboards do a good job of providing all the features of full-size mainboards, with the number of PCI Express and memory slots being the only real differences.

That is the main reason that Cougar expects good sales. The other reasons, besides the tool-less construction, are the standard features: a 120 mm rear fan, support for three more spinners (80-120 mm). The bottom area for 2.5-inch SSDs is the last and unusual bonus.

Finally, the COUGAR SPIKE Mini Gaming Tower PC Case has a front I/o panel with audio jacks, an USB 2.0 port and one USB 3.0 connector, plus the obligatory Power and Reset buttons (blue LEDs).

All in all, Cougar may have actually done a good job justifying the price of $39.99 / 30-39.99 Euro. We’ve embedded the video below, for your convenience, but further information can be found on the product page. Shipments should already be underway. If they are not, they will start soon, within a week or so.
