CONCLUSION
ABKONCORE may not be a familiar name in the PC industry but they do have a wide range of PC cases some of which not only look great and have ample interior space but also carry quite a few interesting features. The CRONOS 710S may not be the top of the line model but it does look good and has plenty of interior space for its size including room for E-ATX sized mainboards, 7 drives, 8 fans and/or 2 radiators, 165mm tall CPU air coolers, 390mm long graphics cards and 205mm long power supply units. Of course it’s not perfect so we would like to see a more impressive fascia (the bottom LED strip looks nice but it’s somewhat limited), extra RGB fans (just the rear one feels too little) and more space for PSUs (205mm is hardly enough) but like we said the CRONOS 710S is nowhere near to being the top of the line model.
Currently the CRONOS 710S Mid-Tower by ABKONCORE retails for just USD59.99 inside the USA (Newegg.com) and for 51.48Euros inside the EU (Amazon.de) a price tag which is extremely balanced for this particular case. So even though competition at around that price range is rather fierce the CRONOS 710S does hold its own and since we feel it delivers on everything people on tight budgets are looking for, we’re giving it our Golden Award.
