NZXT lexa few questions for owners!!!

[danroyle]

hey guys looking at anew case and looking at the lexa nzxt case as 1st choice at the minute but was wondering if anyone owns one if they could answer a few q's for me

1,how does an 8800gts fit in there plenty of space or a little tight

2,whats the cooling like on it as better cooling is my secodn reason for case change

3, anyone got water cooling in one have a single rad and pump that go internally and external reservoir for it also need to know if it has holes at the back for it

4,whats the general build quality on it


thats about it cheers all

well, i had an NZXT Nemesis Elite.

The general build quality was... OK... Not the best for the money but its alright. The cooling on their cases are the same, mediocre, but good enough.

cheers for the info am not hugely fussed about super air cooling as i run h20 on the cpu so i just need to get enough running around to cool my gpu and have room inside for extra fans if i need them current case only takes 2x120mm fans

You should be alright then.

got it built and for anyone that wants watercooling with this case internal kit is not really an option i have had to go back to air cooling why i work out how to fit my water cooling kit in

yeah was a small error on my part my old case was a thermaltake shark so had loads of space to put just about anything in it but it had bad air cooling so went for h20 this case the airflow is much higher and am managing ot keep my gpu at 55c idle 60-65 load and cpu at 40 idle and 45 load

Have you looked at the Gigabyte 3D Aurora 570 case? A friend of mine has one.
Very nice looking case, its also a nice size - 205(w) x 522(H) x 570(D) mm

Its also water-cooling ready, 3x 120mm fans (which I find them to be silent), good built, aluminum and plenty of space.
Have a look here: http://www.gigabyte.eu/Products/Chas...ProductID=2322

I have also heard that Gigabyte have released a case with built-in Water-cooling!!!
Apparently its called the 3D Mercury.

I don't normally suggest ThermalTake cases, but the TT Mozart TX easily fits any full watercooling loop internally.
