Hiper Osiris Mid-Tower Case Review

Interior Impressions

Once the side panel is unlatched and pulled free, we are greeted with a pretty spacious interior considering the Osiris is a mid-tower case. Instead of the usual drab grey interior we see with many enclosures on the market, Hiper has finished the drive bays a matte black while the motherboard tray is powder-coated a dull silver color. Overall, this makes the Osiris look quite stunning both inside and out.


The bottom of the case holds an opening covered by a filter for the power supply fan. In testing, this filter caught quite a bit of dust from going into the power supply and was easily cleaned with a wet rag. However, with many power supplies going towards massive 140mm fans, this intake is a bit on the small side even though it will not overly hinder airflow.

The drive bays have small slots in them which are made to accept the included thumb screws to secure the drives in place. The ones you see above are holding in the hard drive cage and the 3.5” drive bay. This is supposed to be a tool less installation but we found these thumbscrews were tightened a bit too much and needed to be removed with a screwdriver.


The expansion slot covers are not what one would expect since they are of the remove and throw out variety which means that once you remove them, they can’t be reinstalled. This is why Hiper has included a trio of extra covers just in case you go from something like a dual GPU solution to a single GPU.

Meanwhile, the drive cage is loaded with soft rubber rails so your drives can easily slide in and out without scratching their finish. This also works very well to absorb the vibrations of any disk drives. It is small, flawless touches like this that contribute to make this case reach for greatness in a crowded marketplace.


There are quite a few multicolored wires coming from the top panel and unfortunately there is no way to access the underside of it in order to remove some of the connectors. These cables and their blaze of colors can play havoc with clean black and grey color pallet inside of the Osiris even if they are routed with the utmost care. It would have been nice to see at least the SATA cable from the eSATA port finished black, but it was not meant to be.
