NZXT Switch 810 Case Review

The Bottom and Rear Panels

The case has two air filters completely covering the bottom panel. The air filter for the power supply is removed from the back of the case, while the air filter for the optional bottom fans is removed from the front of the case.

The rear panel and the interior of the NZXT Switch 810 are painted white.

On the NZXT Switch 810, the power supply is installed at the bottom of the case.

The case comes with a 140 mm fan installed on its rear panel, connected to the “power hub” we mentioned before. This fan can be moved up or down, so you can place it exactly where you think it will do the best job. You can replace this fan with a 120 mm model, so the case is also compatible with sealed liquid cooling solutions that come with a 120 mm fan to be installed on the rear panel.

This case has nine expansion slots with vented covers, allowing you to install three or four dual-slot video cards, as long as your motherboard supports this configuration.

The NZXT Switch 810 has four holes using rubber covers for hoses of liquid cooling solutions. These holes are 1.1” (28 mm) in diameter.

The most unique feature of the Switch 810 is the presence of two LEDs on its rear panel, making it easy for you to find the proper connectors for installing cables after the computer is built and already installed on its final place (under your desk, for example). These LEDs are turned on or off through a button available on the front panel.

The removal of each side panel is done by pushing a latch that has a black thumbscrew attached to it.
