NZXT Khaos, Only Slightly Intimidating

nzxt_khaos_200.jpg

NZXT has earned itself a reputation for high quality cases and their Khaos chasses is no exception. It sports a sleek “stealthy” look which would be at home in any command center, or gaming den as it were. TweakTown has some thoughts on this beast of a case:

The front of the Khaos tells us right up front that this is no ordinary enclosure. Instead of the plastic bezel that is becoming more common all the time, the front side of this box is all about metal. The entire build was made with sheet aluminum, but don’t let that fool you. The aluminum used throughout this construction is 2mm – 3mm in thickness giving the Khaos a very solid base. On top of this, the joints in this enclosure are welded instead of riveted making it even sturdier.

Also of note is that this thing is BIG! It measures in at roughly 225mm x 615mm x 600mm, which equates to 9″ x 24″ x 23.5″. Compare this to what is commonplace and you will note a very large difference in overall size. This behemoth also weighs in at nearly 16Kg, which works out to roughly 35 pounds. Even with the aluminum construction, this thing is big and heavy… period.

An impressive case overall but it’s going to set you back a decent chunk of change, quality isn’t cheap.
