NZXT M59 Case Review

Introduction (Cont’d)

On the top panel there are two places for installing two 120- or 140 mm fans, as shown in Figure 4. According to the manufacturer you can also install a water cooler radiator inside the case under this space.

On M59 the power supply is installed on the bottom of the case, another feature that is usually only available on more expensive cases. What is really nice about M59 is that it comes with a washable dust filter on the bottom of the case, right below where the power supply fan is located (if you use a power supply with a fan on the bottom part). This filter is easily accessible from outside the case.

In Figure 6, you can see the rear panel from M59. The rear panel and the interior from this case are painted black, which gives a very professional looks to this case. The slot covers are meshed, which helps increasing the internal airflow – another feature normally only found on more expensive units. There is also a mesh with big holes above the slots, also helping the internal airflow. The case comes with a 120 mm fan here (42 cfm, 23 dB, standard peripheral power connector and small three-pin connector) and as mentioned the power supply is installed on the bottom part. M59 comes with two holes for water cooling systems on the top part.
