Sigma is still a name that is probably not very recognizable to many, however, they are a "sister" company of Raidmax, which is very well known. Sigma is working hard to develop new innovative designs built with high quality standards. They have just released a new case for computer enthusiasts with airflow in mind. Today we will take a look at the Sigma WindStorm and see if it is indeed a WindStorm or just a mild breeze! ;)
First Impression:
This is how I like to receive a package, be it for review or one I have purchased. Double boxed is the way to go folks.
The inner box was also protected with thick foam
The retail box has a very appealing look to it with a nice large picture of he red version of the case on the front.
On the rear is another large picture of the red version of the case along with images and descriptions of special features and designs. The side shows the only other available version which is blue with a side panel window. The side also shows the specifications.
Opening the retail box up reveals the rear of the case and the fact that the case is encased in foam and wrapped in clear plastic to protect it.
Sliding the case out of the box we get a glimpse of the striking blue color accenting the black finish. In short the Sigma Windstorm's packaging is both aesthetically pleasing and protective.

I was looking to change the 2 top fans to blue LED''s with controllable rpm. do you know how they mount? i assume the screws come in from the top, but how do you get the meshing off the top so you can access them? thanks
