Nexus Prominent R Case Review

The Bottom and Rear Panels

The bottom panel is completely meshed, and comes with an air filter. The case supports the installation of one 120 mm or 140 mm fan on the bottom panel. A second fan can be installed if you remove the bottom hard drive cage. We will talk more about this later.

The rear panel and the interior of the Nexus Prominent R are painted black.

The power supply is installed on the bottom part of the case.

The Nexus Prominent R comes with another 120 mm fan installed on its rear panel, identical to the one used on the front panel. Again, the manufacturer doesn’t reveal its technical specifications.

Another highlight of the reviewed case is the presence of eight expansion slots, allowing you to install three or four dual-slot video cards, if your motherboard supports these configurations. Usually, cases come with seven expansion slots. All slot covers are vented.

This case has five holes for hoses of liquid cooling solutions, all using rubber covers. The three holes located at the top are 0.8” (20 mm) in diameter, while the two located at the bottom are 0.63” (16 mm) in diameter.
