NZXT has updated the Lexa series with a more affordable Blackline versions. The steel cases can be had with either blue or red lighting effects and feature all the bells and whistles of the original Lexa, but with an all black color. Aside from the awesome outside looks the Lexa features a clean interiour which has lots of space, even for the biggest video cards. An LCD display with three sensors completes the package.

NZXT has become the new word for "sexy". This is my third case I have received from them and each time the styling gets better and better! This particular model is black with blue lighting in the front which makes for a nice contrast. The case is also available with a silver finish for those who are not into black. The front of the case is made of plastic but NZXT gave it the look of brushed aluminum which is very nice. The sides of the case, as well as the chassis, are made of a thin, sturdy steel. Overall the case is fairly lightweight and is easy to move around. The Front Blue led is securely mounted inside the door; if you give your case some loving abuse, you don't have to worry about this case falling apart.

NZXT has just introduced the NZXT Lexa Blackline just in time for summer, with newly modified design and a menacing Black and Red theme. The Blackline comes equipped with two red 120mm LED fans running at 23dba and a top 80mm exhaust fan. The front bezel is piano black to match the gloss black finish everywhere else. The Blackline chassis is reinforced by an 1mm steel chassis, and comes pre-drilled for external water-cooling and screwless installation of expansion cards. Benchmark Reviews is the very first site on the scene offering you an excellent first-look at the latest NZXT offering.

The Hush has some of that elegance the Lexa had, but at the same time it has a little space-age design in it as well. The thing that the Hush has over the Lexa and all the other cases from NZXT is that it is aimed at the silent PC crowd. Granted this is obviously where it gets its name from. With silence as one of the main features of this case a few other things one would look for would be pricing, size and manageability. And the Hush has all of this and more. Now that I have talked up the Hush lets move on to the review and some pictures.

To put it simply, the NZXT Precise 1200W Power Supply is superb. The voltage regulation is way above par, the overall build quality is very good, and it has a simple understated design without any gawdy extras. Anyone who has a huge, power hungry computer may be interested in this unit, but unless your middle name is "Overkill", then it will honestly be a lot more power than you could possibly need.

Introducing the NZXT HUSH, a chassis designed from grounds up to be quiet while having ample cooling. Game and work without all the noise, thanks to the sound dampening foam that is used on the top, side, and bottom panels of the case. The HUSH is equipped with two 120mm fans running at low speeds while still achieving high levels of air flow. High-end gaming requires faster hard drives and power supplies, so we've installed rubber padding near fans and hard drives to further reduce the sound level. The HUSH also ships with USB 2.0, Firewire, and HD audio support. Benchmark Reviews proves that you can compute in peace, with the HUSH Classic Series Silent Computer Chassis.

NZXT wowed ThinkComputers with its top-of-the-line "Adamas" aluminum chassis last November, earning an Editor's Choice Award. NZXT's newest offering is the HUSH, a chassis which the Taiwanese manufacturer says is silent but still offers premium airflow at a very affordable price. Will the HUSH impress us as much as the Adamas? Read on for the review of the NZXT HUSH.

The NZXT Hush is the newest case in their line-up. The name is also the main feature of this enclosure, as the interior is covered by noise reducing dampening foam. This includes the bottom, sides, front and top of the case. While the interior layout is not very unique, but the screwless design is a great addition and works well. As we are used to from NZXT the exterior design looks great, especially with the blue LED fan and lighting in the door.

To an extent, your computer case defines your computer. If you get a 1U rackmount chassis, chances are that you are building a server. If you are using a mATX small form factor case, the aim is portability. A general mid-tower or full-tower case is used for mainstream and performance computing. As computers are now an integral part of many living rooms, the trend of stylish HTPC cases are becoming an important product line of many case manufacturers. NZXT, established in 2004, is starting their quest to become an important player in this market. When they contacted me roughly a month ago in regards to reviewing their products, what really interested me is their NZXT Duet -- a HTPC case that is designed to accommodate both vertical and horizontal placement. Besides external appearance, how well is this case engineered, and how does it perform? Although we haven't reviewed a computer case for quite a while now, it's time for us to get back to it -- and let's examine NZXT's Duet today.

This case supports an amazing seven 120mm fans and two 80mm fans. To top it off, the manufacturer includes 8 of the fans, so you don?t have to break the bank populating them! With nine fans in the system, I was expecting some new competition for my vacuum cleaner. Once again, I was wrong! I was able to hear the noise of my hard drives over the fans, (which brings me back to wanting thicker side panels) so for the normal one or two hard drive install, this case would be exceptionally quiet! This case was made for a user who has a Dual/SLI Video card setup. There are four 120mm fans on the side of the case that line up to where the video cards would typically sit, surrounding them with an impressive amount of fresh,cool air. My setup is still in the stone ages, I do not have a SLI setup (yet), however I do have a dual processor system which heats up quite nicely.

NZXT is well known for producing some very high quality components. The Adamas is constructed of 3 mm thick sheets of aluminum and only utilizes the best in materials and some very innovative engineering. A price tag of just under $200 US Dollars demands this quality as well as high expectations on compatibility and the installation process. We take a close look at every aspect of this case to let you know if it is worth it.

NZXT delivers a high quality aluminum chassis with the Adamas, does this mid-tower have what it takes to keep a Core 2 Duo / Geforce 8800 GTX system cool and quiet? We find out

For some people a case is undoubtedly nothing more than a box to keep all those messy components and cables out of sight while also providing some level of extra cooling. For most of us however our cases are an extension of our personality. They advertise to those around us how proud we are of our computers and how important it is for us to make a lasting first impression. It's the equivalent of us getting dressed up to go out or putting on a suit to go to work.
