This box is pretty good for the price, but for around twenty euros more you can get a much better quality product.
I was looking for a low cost housing for my new setup, and the Zalman I3 fits the bill perfectly. The case is well thought out. However, for watercooling, it will have to be installed on the front. Cable management is easy and the tower is well ventilated with its numerous fans. The speed of the fans can be adjusted directly on the tower by pressing the + or - buttons.
Be very careful with the transparent plastic plate: it scratches easily!
Acquisition of this case for a new configuration. Aesthetically beautiful with its 3 fans in front.
I took 2 stars off because my tower was stuck at the top, which made it difficult to install my motherboard. I had to straighten it without blowing out the rivets. One star less due to the fact that there was no passage for the CPU cables (I had two more); I had to pass the cables over the motherboard. Otherwise, the rest of the cables were well managed.
I'm not a fan of RGB, but the adjustable white LEDs on the fans and the glass make it easy to see when the PC is switched on. The case is quite light compared to my old one, I've already used it for several LANs.
Very good product I took this case for me silk less heavy following problem of cervical my big tower must too heavy therefore more practical for me it is very pretty except the lights that of the white my question ventilo it melts not of all noise as certain says it the most that I hear it are my ventilo of the graphic card and the proc that I control their speed which turns to bottom if not it is very well
The case is good overall but I find the fans a bit too noisy and a bit too expensive for plexiglass.
Otherwise the assembly is quite easy in this case
Bought this case to replace the aging Antec Nine Hundrer. The strong points are storage for cables to make a clean assembly, ventilation (4 fans quite quiet), quality/price ratio. The only drawback is that the plexiglass on the side is just a piece of plexiglass with holes in it, which makes the case look a bit cheap. I would have preferred a real panel with an integrated plexi. Apart from that, I'm happy with my choice.
Great box, the fans provided cooling very well, everything is perfect, very happy with the product, nothing to complain about!
This case is very good, first of all thanks to its 4 fans adjustable directly on the case, it's a pity that they are not the quietest but it's not very annoying (put at the maximum quite noisy) The installation of a watercooling type aio (120mm or 240mm) is possible on the front of the case Cable management easy thanks to the many possible passages Nice lighting of the fans which is not too much, just a pity that we can't change the colour of the leds
For 82? a tower that ventilates at the bottom and makes kikoo lights, I love it! The space (with its double bottom) is big enough to be comfortable.
