    The internals look a lot like the Coolermaster CM-690 but without the toolless mounting options. At least in layout .

    If you can live with the styling it's about £20 cheaper than the Coolermaster and appears to have a more sensible MB tray. If the cooling is as good as the CM then they could well be on to a budget winner.

    It's got a blue illuminated mini spaceship dock! What's not to like?!!?? It's got shades of the Lamborghini Reventón about it...

    It may not be to everyone's taste but to have variety at that price point is impressive.

    Re: News - NZXT announces M59 gaming chassis

    Why stick that huge ugly lump of plastic on the front of what looks to be a well thoughtout case, what a shame. Sleek aesthetics you say...

    sleek aesthetics
    What?

    It's about as sleek as a tractor.
    I know looks aren't everything, but it's as if they went out of their way to make it ugly - some understated clean lines are all that's needed.

    Antec 900 fans are going to love it!

    They are both plain plastic ugly.

    I think NZXT are in competition with themselves to create the most vulgar case on the market.

    the features and insides looks quite good, but the front looks like something out of Tron...

    I actually like it, but i can't help wonder how high the price tag will be.

    Re: News - NZXT announces M59 gaming chassis

    pedant alert - in the picture provided it looks like the rear fan has actually been configured as an intake... :S

    I thought it was hideous at first, but it's starting to grow on me. It isn't going to replace my Lexa at any point, but still, it's decent enough. Agreed, however, that the styling will lose them a lot of customers.

    LOL.

    I do like the look of this, in a "Reventon" type of way (not a "arcade cabinet" type...). As one user said, it could "grow on me".

    However, I recently got a CM-690 and wouldn't swap it for this. Why? Coolermaster's case is tool-less. (See yet another user's post.)

    I think it's a valid addition to the marketplace, especially if the price was about £40.
