NZXT Switch 810 Case Review
Conclusions
Contents
The NZXT Switch 810 is a decent full-tower case, allowing you to build a very high-end system. The LEDs on the rear panel is a great idea, making it easier for you to find the right connector after the computer is built and installed on its final place. However, we didn’t like the venting system available on the top panel. We can’t see when you would like to cover a fan. With the vents open, the whole top panel will be opened for collecting dust, especially when no additional fans are installed.
Strong Points
- Latching mechanism for the side panels
- Air filter for the power supply, front, and bottom fans
- LEDs with on/off switch on the rear panel
- Supports radiators from liquid cooling solutions up to 420 mm long and 90 mm tall
- Vented slot covers
- Nine expansion slots
- Expansion cards are fastened with thumbscrews
- Tool-less installation mechanisms for 5.25” and 3.5” devices
- Anti-vibration mechanisms for 3.5” devices
- A huge hole in the motherboard tray for accessing the backplate of the CPU cooler
- Holes protected with rubber covers for routing cables behind the motherboard tray
- Clips for fastening cables using cable ties
Weak Points
- No fan speed controllers
- Closing the top panel vents makes no sense
- Should have an air filter on the top panel
- Doesn’t support HPTX motherboards
