Conclusion

...offers lots of stylish tempered glass without breaking the bank and covers most of the essentials for a modern build.

Deepcool is a brand worth knowing about if you're hoping to shave a few pounds off the cost of your next PC build.

The Chinese manufacturer has a growing catalogue of cost-effective CPU coolers and PSUs, and its chassis portfolio will soon be expanded with the retail launch of the Matrexx 70.

Priced at £70, the firm's latest mid-tower offers lots of stylish tempered glass without breaking the bank and covers most of the essentials for a modern build. There's plenty of room to work with, the clean-looking PSU shroud is topped with an unusual sheet of glass, and despite its modest price tag, there's support for an E-ATX board and a couple of large radiators.

There is inevitably room for improvement - rubber grommets on the cable holes would have been nice, as would a rigid, easily-removable front filter - but as a pared-back foundation for a trendy PC, Matrexx 70 does enough to be in with a shout.

hello everyone, i am Tomek from Poland.


Hmmm, i am developer from 17 years. I would to help.
Not bad at all for the price. Been thinking about Deepcool Matrexx 55
Matrexx 55 I used for a couple of builds, very easy to pull apart to fit much needed fans to it, picked up at scan when on offer

Build quality ok, front facia a bit “plasticky” for my liking and does bend at edges so be careful when prising off and on to fit fans

included RGB strip on front a nice touch, front IO panel looks cheap and nasty but for the price does the job
