A Closer Look
For starters the packaging Highlights some key features:
- 2x140mm fans (top mounted)
- 4x120mm fans (2 front, 1 rear, 1side)
- smoked acrylic window
- new wire routing
 Very straightforward on the inside. |
 No frills, No surprises |
 |
 I prefer cases with the power supply at the bottom. this case also has hose entry points for dual radiators. |
 |
 I like the look of this case, the exterior feels durable. |
As you can see the case comes with plenty of built in extras like water cooling holes, filtered front panels, a bottom mounted PSU, black interior and exterior and more. The dual front mounted light bars really add to the effect of the case.
Additional Features: (From NZXT’s Site)

You are correct it was a case review, not a instructional on computer installation. I appreciate the advice, in the future I will take that into consideration.
I am sorry but if this is the way you show how a computer is built I feel sad.
Especially the bottom area of the case with all those wires hanging. I know this is just a review but still does not make justice to show a photo like that when doing a review for a case.
