  • Is the Panzerbox 'LAN ready'? With two 190mm fans and 120mm exhaust, support for high performance hardware, water-cooling, and a pure aluminum build I would say so. It's also one of the lightest mid-towers we've ever seen. With a decent pr...

  • So you are looking for a case small enough to take to a LAN event, but big enough to house your twin graphic card system that's also got a CPU water loop... with a pot a Vaseline and some patience the Panzerbox could indeed be the case for you. The airflo...

  • Once you get the NZXT Panzerbox out the box and into your hands, you immediately know what the case is all about. The complete aluminum architecture of the case is amazing and very strong. I had my doubts before opening the box but that was shortly l...

  • The NZXT Panzerbox is an excellent case, with a few interesting features that I like. It's obvious that thought went into the design and effort went into its appearance. With its low-profile finish, gentle curves and sleek black mesh, it's beautiful, ...

  • Couple of issues with PSU location, Fans may be too loud for daily use
  • based on their own needs. Secondly, there's the noise issue. NZXT markets the Panzerbox as a gaming chassis and we shouldn't expect it to be silent. However, the two 190mm fans put out a pretty hefty roar that, while providing excellent cooling pe...

  • The Panzerbox is a nice little step up from the Beta, but it is also stepped up in price. Not that the price is bad though, coming in at about $100 for a solid case is reasonable. The Panzerbox does come with some of the nice options that high end case...
