CONCLUSION

   For all the people who follow us in Facebook my opinion about the Cougar Evolution Full Tower is quite obvious since if it was bad in any way i simply wouldn't have chosen it to house one of our test rigs. I mean what is there not to like? The build quality of the unit is great, the design is very good (if you like a balance between elegance and aggressiveness), it comes with a wide range of features such as USB 3.0, Dual-Way fan controller for use with up to 6 fans, a total of 7 fan spots, top SATA HDD docking station, spacious interior and a total of 6 optical drive bays. I bet that is also the main reason behind the decision by Cougar to rightfully reclassify the product from midi to full tower.

   The Evolution Full Tower by Cougar is currently available at around USD100 inside the USA (Newegg) and at 110Euros inside the EU, a price range which is mostly filled with midi towers. Regardless of the price however the Evolution Full Tower has a single important drawback and that's the rather small drive cage which can only accommodate up to four 3.5"/2.5" disk drives. Personally i can't say that i need more for this particular test rig but many people may not like that small limitation. Granted you can get 5.25" to 3.5" adapters to mount more drives but it's just not the same not to mention the extra cost. Overall the Cougar Evolution Full Tower is a very good PC Case with great quality, balanced design, plenty of features and a very tempting price tag which is why it gets our Golden award.
