Hi guys, I will be building a small gaming rig for college and was wondering what the differences are between the old Bitfenix Prodigy and the newer version that was released recently. I heard that the newer one has less room for water cooling?

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

From what I can see on mine, they changed the motherboard tray so that it's open at the end, and the tray kinda curves in at the end.

You can probably see the differences in some of the pics in my build log.

well bitfenix stills produces the original prodigy (mITX), last year made the

prodigy M (mATX case). newly released phenom (mITX) and phenom M (mATX).

so the phenom isn't a replacement, just another choice of appearances. as is

the colossus Mini-mITX/colossus micro-mATX. in mITX pretty much same innereds

as prodigy (some enhancements).
