Arctic Xtender VG Chassis Review

The Xtender VG from Arctic marks the company’s first step into the PC case market. Let’s see how “cool” their new product really is, and whether it reflects the core values the brand is known for.

In May 2025, at Computex in Taipei, Arctic unveiled its first-ever chassis. Just a few months later, we have it on our desk for review, bringing equal parts excitement and curiosity. Arctic has built a strong reputation in cooling solutions, so entering a new product category comes with higher expectations. They’ll need to prove that their design standards and attention to detail carry over into this venture.

The Xtender VG is a substantial case, with 64 liters of internal volume. This translates into support for E-ATX motherboards, large PSUs, up to two 420mm radiators, and even the option to purchase it bundled with a vertical GPU solution. It ships with five Pro Series fans, offers generous storage support, and features several thoughtful touches, including an illuminated acrylic panel and filtered intakes.

The chassis is available in black or white, with the black version also offering an optional mirrored glass finish. Buyers can choose between the VG model, which includes a complete vertical GPU kit, or the standard model without it.

But the real question remains: does it live up to the Arctic name? Let’s find out.
