Define XL R2
Define XL R2 is designed on the same successful principles of the acclaimed Define R4 chas-
sis; A stylish and understated design with a focus on providing the user with a silent computer
system, while offering flexibility and ease of use during installation and upgrades.
With an all-new interior layout, Define XL R2 accommodates a wider range of components,
such as E-ATX and XL-ATX motherboards, and multiple graphics card setups with access to
9 PCI expansion slots. In addition, the new layout allows for installation of the largest CPU
coolers, multiple hard drives as well as providing ample space for neatly organized cable rout-
ing in the back of the case. For those who are aiming to achieve maximum sound reduction,
installing water-cooling components are possible in both the front and top panel.
Finally, Define XL R2 carries on the Define Series legacy of minimalistic and stunning Scandi-
navian design combined with maximum functionality and sound reduction.
