OrigenAE X15e HTPC ATX Case

Conclusion

With a price tag of around £499.95 at SpecialTech I was expecting something special from OrigenAE, and I’m pleased to say that is exactly what I got. The X15e is the Bentley of the HTPC enclosure world, and no other case I’ve ever seen or reviewed comes close to its attention to detail and craftsmanship.

OrigenAE have produced a case that fits in perfectly with even the most high-end of AV equipment, and wouldn’t look out of place in a superstar’s living room.

Functionality wise, the touchscreen display is amazing, making navigating around WindowsMCE a breeze. This coupled with the included remote controls, means that watching your favourite Video’s or TV shows requires no extra effort than your pre-HTPC days.
