HEXUS.reviews :: NZXT Zero chassis

[Tarinder]

It's big, bold and has 'loads' of fans pre-installed. Find out if the NZXT Zero chassis makes for the perfect tower case this side of £100

I could swear the internals of this this exactly the same as my Gigabyte 3d Aurora...? Or am I just going crazy?

Edit: Except without the useful holes for water cooling tubes and with a couple of awkwardly placed fans.

I can't look at any inexpensive system case now without shuddering at the cheapness of the construction and looks. This means I am looking at a hefty £200 bill for my next chassis, probably a Silverstone.

(I still have a Chieftec Dragon full tower which is capable of surviving a nuclear blast, and I use a Silverstone TJ-05 for my main system.)

[Salazaar]

If it is, as I strongly suspect, a re-shelled Aurora then the internals, despite not having the 'best' layout and a few too many fans, are of excellent quality and definately worth £85.

Looks completely identical to my Aurora, even the tabs in the 5.25" bays are the same.

Again, an Aurora owner here, expressing my familiarity with that layout. I don't suffer from many of the problems mentioned though. Maybe they both source components from the same place, but Gigabyte just did a better job of positioning them.

Also my Aurora was £75 (£10 less) and has no cheap looking shiny plastic on it.

£85, with horrible looking plastics, poor internal layout and no water cooling ability... no thanks. At least the styling is ok!

It would be helpful if the review described what the case is made of: Aluminum, Steel or some combination?

"We find it hard to comprehend why some fans are shipped with appropriate filters in place and some aren't."


Doesn't it make sense that only the intake fans be filtered? I don't think I'd want filters on my exhaust fans.

It's made of aluminium.
