G.SKILL is best known for its memory products, but the company has sent out a reminder that it makes cases, too.
Announced today by the manufacturer is the MD2 mid-tower PC case, a new “stylish ATX case designed for high-performance builds” that features a sleek front panel design, support for versatile cooling options, a spacious interior, and a 4-mm-thick tempered-glass side panel.
The case will be available in white or black, as indicated in the feature photo and gallery images below.
The MD2’s highlights, per G.SKILL’s press release:
- Stylish Front Intake Panel
- The MD2 case front panel design is inspired by the S-curves of race tracks and incorporates side vents for improved airflow to keep internal components cool. The front panel RGB lighting is designed with a spring-loaded contact, in place of wiring, for easy removal and easy access during front fan installation or cleaning the front magnetic filter.
- Versatile Cooling Options
- The roomy interior of the MD2 case offers a multitude of cooling configuration options to help keep internal components stay cool, with space for up to 7 case fans along the front, top, and rear of the case, or simultaneously up to two 360mm water-cooling radiators.
- Spacious Interior Design
- Designed to accommodate high-end hardware components, the MD2 case supports graphics cards of up to 395mm in length and supports CPU air coolers of up to 170mm in height. The MD2 case also offers ample storage drive installation options with up to two 2.5” SSD mounts and two convertible 2.5”/3.5” drive bays.

Join Discussion →Other than an aesthetic that matches their RAM, it looks like any other similar offering on the market. That's my first impression of it anyway.
Same thoughts here. I swear every midtower has the same "design" inside. This looks just like the H7 flow I got except that GSkill changed the front of the case to make it their own, which also doesn't look very good for air flow.
To be fair, I've seen this at every point in time since I got into computers in the mid-1990's. Back then, the bezel changed but most mid-towers were all the same inside. In the early 2000's the Chieftech Dragon, Antec (whatever it was called) etc. all shared the same internal design and even the same bezel. Only the logo changed. Now, everything follows the same basic design as this G.Skill case does.
Yes that's about the same time I got into PC's and there were fairly cookie cutter cases back then as well.
Well back then it was sheet metal box - 5 1/4” bays, maybe a 3 1/2” bay — color beige.
At least until the iMac kinda shook things up
