Laptops have always been widely appealing for their portability, but the prices usually have been a major hindrance for consumers. However, along with the latest technology coming in smaller sizes and lower prices, there follows a huge crowd of laptop-purchasers. And with the laptop-purchaser crowd growing everyday, the laptop accessories have become a lot more popular - leading companies to direct more attention towards them. One particular accessory, the laptop cooler, is actually quite popular amongst many laptop users. However, one particular cooler caught my eye -- an interesting design while featuring laptop dock-like features such as an USB hub, I decided to take a look at the NZXT Cryo LX, an active cooler with three fans.

This isn't something you'd expect to see under the notebook of some guy in a dress shirt and tie sitting next to you on a plane, or of someone in a business suit at Starbucks. More likely, you'd see this under an Alienware gaming laptop at a LAN party. I have no problem believing this is something from NZXT.

Anyone who owns a laptop knows how hot they can get. To help remedy that problem manufacturers are now coming out with some well made and thought out solutions. The NZXT Cryo LX Aluminum Notebook Cooler is touted as the first notebook cooler to feature triple 120mm adjustable fans and a full 3mm aluminum frame. But will it do the job? The NZXT Cryo LX Aluminum Notebook Cooler is one of many new coolers on the market, and Benchmark Reviews tests to see if it sets itself apart from the crowd.

During its existence, the shape and the size of the PC-case have gone through many evolutions. One of the newer designs is a cube. Case design has much to do with personal preference, so it's good to see variety on the market as many find the cube shape to be very practical.

This Cryo LX definitely takes inspiration from some of NZXT's cases, and incorporates quality materials and a well thought out design into a cooler capable of handling 17" (and even 19") notebook computers. Constructed mostly of thick Aluminum, and sporting three 120mm fans, this isn't just an oversized version of the typical notebook cooler.

If on the search for a great-looking gaming chassis that's also portable, NZXT might have you covered. Their "SFF" label might be a bit of an understatement though - this case is far from being small. Despite that, it looks good, offers a whack of functionality and is definitely worth a look.

Usually the primary criteria when shopping for cases are the exterior design, thermal and acoustic performance and the number of features. A good case usually is a balanced combination of those criteria; a case without fans would be very silent but the thermal performance would be awful, while a case with extremely fast fans would offer extremely good thermal performance but the noise would make it intolerable for many people. With those criteria in mind NZXT designed the Hush, a case which can offer proper cooling and good looks but at the same time be entirely silent and comes at an affordable price. Perhaps one of the most balanced quality cases ever designed? We will soon find out.

As an Enthusiast I have always considered many Small Form Factor cases to host my gaming rig, and I can comfortably state that a large number of members of gaming community consider SFF cases as well, but in my case full or mid tower cases have always been my choice due to higher cooling potential and better airflow they have been known to offer. Today at Benchmark Reviews we have the new NZXT Rouge Crafted Series SFF gaming chassis which focuses on key-points such as higher cooling potential, supporting bigger power supplies and most importantly hosting the highest end gaming cards with no size restrictions. Please join us as we explore NZXT's newest addition to SFF gaming cases.

The NZXT Rogue Super Cube is the next PC Case in the Technic3D Editorship. The Gamingcube is equipped with three120mm fans (running at low speeds) and have installed rubber padding near hard drives to further reduce the sound level. This NZXT also ships with USB 2.0, eSATA, and audio support. See you in the following Review which qualities the new Rogue Super Cube Gamer Case presents.

HTPC cases are generally designed to match the rest of the electronics found inside a modern high tech living room. But what if the user is a hardcore gamer wanting an eye catching design to draw the eye to their pride and joy? The latest case from NZXT, the Rogue SFF chassis is here to answer that call. The Rogue is a cubic-like SFF desktop case designed for LAN parties, but it is already one of the favorite cases of HTPC system builders due to its aluminum body.

The NZXT Rogue Small Form Factor Gaming Chassis puts an interesting twist on the concept of a small form factor design. The stylish Aluminum chassis is well made, and includes a variety of interesting features such as a removable motherboard tray, a custom carrying strap for greater mobility, and excellent cooling potential thanks to five 120mm fan mounts.

We've been privileged enough to review a fair portion of the NZXT case range, with the Lexa Blackline, Rouge, Hush and Duet all receiving solid results and accolades. Now I have another case from the gamer enclosure constructors; the NZXT Alpha. Sold under the tag-line of 'Simple yet powerful' it slots into the budget class case segment. Featuring tool-less drive mounting, steel chassis and GTX support, it should make for a good enclosure for your build.

NZXT is a company that is renowned for producing quality, performance-minded cases with a touch of class. I consider it a privilege to review their cases. Today, I get the chance with the Alpha Classic Series Steel Mid-tower chassis, which from this moment on will be called the Alpha. Let's get to it. Shall we?

Deciding what chassis to house your computer in these days can be an agonizing decision. The selection of computer cases on the market is simply astonishing which tells you it's a lucrative market segment and everyone wants a piece. Not to mention everybody needs some type of case for their system so just like the selection of automobiles is huge to try to fit every personality and situation, so tries the case market. However it's not every day that a product launches that simply breaks the normal segment boundaries. NZXT just launched such a product called the Rogue. It's tagline is "the ultimate gaming SFF chassis". Let's take a closer look at the specs and see just what's so different about this new case.

NZXT has sent over one of their latest cases, the Rogue. Although they list it with their Crafted series, the smooth clean lines of this SFF case I feel more appropriately fits the Classic series. But the Rogue doesn't exactly match either of their two categories, most of which are populated by mid-tower designs. As this is targeted as a SFF LAN gaming case, a first for NZXT, this really comes as no surprise.
