“NZXT’s Zero 2 is targeted towards budget minded consumers and as such meets its goal. It is very well suited for gamers on a budget and will definitely keep your internals cool, especially if you wish to run everything on air and want to stray away from liquid or advanced cooling.”

“Widely available online for around $90US, this chassis is a pretty good value for what you get. A full-tower case with excellent fit and finish like this is hard to come by for this kind of money.”

“The NZXT Zero 2 promises one thing: No-nonsense cooling. In this area, it certainly delivers, as the option to mount four 120mm fans on the side provides more than enough airflow, albeit with the attendant noise. Overall, the case was easy to work inside of, thanks to the ample room offered by a full-tower. It was also sturdy (and heavy) as heck, a result of the steel material. The Zero 2 turns out to be a functional and dependable case, definitely worthy of your attention especially if it can be had for a good price.”

Die Sternverteilung gestaltet sich wie folgt: Bei der Verarbeitung gibt es keine technischen Mängel, wobei Plastiks natürlich Plasik bleibt und der Staubmagnet namens Frontklappe nach dem regelmäßigen Einsatz von Putzutensilien schreit. Die Kühlleistung ist bis auf die HDD-Kühlung erstklassig, samt optionaler Seitenlüfter kann der Zero2 auch hitzige System bequem kühlen. Die Lüfter sind im Drehzahlkeller kaum zu hören, die beiden Atemlöcher für 80er Lüfter dürfen aber gern durch 120mm große ersetzt werden.

The NZXT Zero 2 PC case is very well made, with a lot of room for even the most powerful system out there, you’ll have plenty of room for hard drives and video cards in there. The included fans do an excellent job of cooling, and you’ve got the option of adding even more fans if you want even more cooling for your system.

NZXT has made some excellent cases in the past and the Zero 2 continues the trend. This well built steel case has plenty of room to accommodate the most feature rich system. With thirteen drive bays you will be hard pressed to fill them all. The supplied fans do an excellent job of cooling but additional fans can be added for more arctic conditions if required.

This case has a very sturdy design which could take a good beating. If you're looking for a full tower chassis without the full tower price then the NZXT Zero 2 is the way to go. Overall ThinkComputers awards the NZXT Zero 2 Full Tower Chassis a 9 out of 10 score and our Good Value Award!

I have to say NZXT does do a good job of giving you the best bang money can buy at that level. I personally enjoyed the build and I liked the completely screw-less rail design, that makes it that much easier to build and to swap out parts later. If you have an eye for this case and a budget in mind, I will say I would recommend you take a good look at the NZXT Zero 2.

This case is very impressive for its cost. The Thermaltake armor has a lot of room and extras but I think I am swapping out my Thermaltake Armor for this case I love the 4 120mm fans as opposed to my big 240mm fan that the armor currently has. You get a lot more cfm’s from 4 120mm’s than 1 240mm because the shear size of the fan makes it difficult to achieve higher rpm’s.

Overall, this case looks great from the outside, and does well inside. The ability to house seven 120mm fans is a huge bonus, but fans of the original Zero will be let down by the fact that it only comes with three. The front looks trendy, the blue lines against the black and smokey gloss make it look space-themed. Also, the USB, eSATA, and front audio are easily accessed thanks to them being located on the top. The case is plenty roomy, and easy to work in, especially thanks to the tool free drive bay devices. There are plenty of spots to run cable and also a few to hide them, which is nice for airflow and for cases with windows.
