More than decent box with a very good quality-price level...
The only problem is the noisy and not so nice fan... But nothing prevents from replacing it...
Not disappointed for the rest...
Rather plain and well laid out for cable management. A little light on ventilation.
The 3.5" hard disk racks are not very good.
Still a good value for money for a tower without power supply.
Nice case, but still a bit tight, and no possibility to put a dvd player.glass side window, not plastic
I bought this case to replace my old case which was getting old, I could only put one fan in 120mm and still this one was only held by one screw and was tight next to the motherboard. And the management cable I don't even mention it, a catastrophe, horrible for cleaning or just to remove the ram.
So, very happy with the new Zalman case, very well designed overall, we have dust filters, a very nice glass on the side.
You can easily put 2 fans in the front or 3 if you are good and a fan in the back. The case is wider than the old one, which allowed me to make cable management and have more space.
The only drawback is that I could only screw in 6 of the 7 key screws on the motherboard.
If you are looking for a good mid-range case for a configuration of less than 1000 euros, you can go with your eyes closed! But look carefully if the configuration is compatible with the case ;)
Very good, nothing to say. I'm very pleased with the service. I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product.
A good, sober and well designed case. No problems when assembling the PC. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the service.
I recommend it! Thank you!
I have assembled a configuration ordered in February 2022 I recommend this case very well for its price for the passage of cables nothing to say we have the possibility to make something clean I was for part satisfied with the system of fixing the hard disk 3.The only thing is that the sata plugs on the motherboard connect to the 3.5" hard drive. I recommend using a sata plug at 45 degrees, otherwise the sata plugs will come against the case's closure panel.
Excellent case for so "cheap", the tone of the case is very sober and pure, the tempered glass gives a real impression of quality.
A slight cable management has been done, good surprise when unpacking.
two things to note:
-The supplied fan, called "RBG" requires an adapter to be connected to a micro-ATX card, no problem for an ATX card though.
-The "RGB" of the fan is not adjustable, by this I mean that it is not possible to change the colours of the fan LEDs.
I advise!
The case was purchased for a basic PC without an expansion card.
It is practical for mounting and well thought out, especially for cable routing.
The only drawback is that the fan is not controlled by the motherboard and therefore runs at full speed all the time, which makes it a noisy case.
