#1103 - NZXT Gamma Case Video Review

[ArrghhMatey]

thanks man, had this case sitting in my shopping cart debating whether to buy it and this video tipped the scale. helpful.

[pn0yb0iProductions]

Best case under 50$

[BigCrazytm]

when he said have a listen to the stock cooling, I couldnt hear it over the loudness of my current computer

[IdiotBoneProductions]

Why do you say "Front" as "fucked"?

[Cqub3]

I will make a see trough window at the side

[BlueishLightz]

Would a gtx 560 fit ?

[MrAwesomecomment]

@BlueishLightz it can fit 2 with ease but you cant use the mini hdmi port on the side

i have this case 

[buzz9961]

@BlueishLightz yes

[RogueBrit]

All in all this is a Great Product :)

[anemozen]

will this case fit a Corsair Cooling Hydro H60?? Please i really need to know! :)

[TheL3k3]

Thx,just order yesterday from newegg,gr8 review m8 :)

[struggle375]

how big does the PSU have to be?

[wackos90]

this guys voice pisses me off and who gives a fuck if the motherboard tray isn't removable he says it like its such a bad thing

[LoveRunescape5320]

easy remove or easy crash :@ lol man 1:05

[TheRammsteizer]

Look in releated videos. You will see that the unboxing of this video was his 26th video. Look in the title of this video.

[madascene99]

Oh shoot, looks like the 5970 wont fit in this case. Its about 12.2 inches long :(

[JetJL]

He said that it would fit 10.5 video cards and some that are larger. someone posted on newegg that they fitted a 6950 into this computer case. Since the 6950 is around 10.5 to 10.6 inches (depending on who says it) anything less than this card should fit.

[greycolumbus]

This case seems to be the least ugly for for the price.

[tubehiki]

quite an ugly design, better by phantom instead by the same manufacturer

[currymuncher2008]

will this fit the HD 6950?

[ptwick123]

lmao what stock cooling? it comes with 1 fan.. haf 912 is way better..

[Emiln96]

@ptwick123 but double price :S

[tootjeey]

Dat zeg ik, Gamma!!!!

[quasar953]

Could you put an ATI Radeon 5770 in this? :D

[XxSoCertifiedxX]

@quasar953 Sure can. With room to spare.

[FREAK9364]

This case reminds me of Halo. I don't know to get this one or another one.

[KoolJust4U]

does these guy doing these review get to keep the stuff they reviewing? or do they have to send them back.

[XxSoCertifiedxX]

@KoolJust4U They actually have partnerships so sometimes they get to keep some, if not all, of the items they review. Just depends on the contract that's in place. Some of them can only do reviews. I have a friend that can only do reviews.

[msfattytroll]

@XxSoCertifiedxX

i dont think rodney keeps them either

[odstchief]

After watching Ventrilo Harrasment, I can't take this guy seriously anymore.

[dndepisode67]

@odstchief me either hahahah

[PhotoShopChannel]

@odstchief Hu? is he in Ventrilo Harrasment?

[odstchief]

@PhotoShopChannel Look up "Ventrilo Harrassment Rodney Reynolds"

[pdani72]

so ugly

[Mirror245]

I have this case.

[tobearockstar0706]

@Mirror245 Can you fit a full size CPU cooler inside?

[Mirror245]

@tobearockstar0706

Might be a tight fit but I think you could do it.

[Asim999ful]

@Mirror245 tell me bout this case

[Kozlaxyz]

1:04 i didn't kenew that lol

[Crawl81]

will a coolermaster V8 fit in this case with the 2 side fans installed?

[sk8erfreak9242]

@Crawl81 yes ofcourse

[Lalli716]

Does anyone know if this case would fit cooler master hyper n520 cooler for AMD Phenom X4 (AM3)?

[patfinleyplz]

I have a question about this case.

I just bought an Ibuypower computer from newegg that uses this case and the removable side panel of the case is the side panel that the motherboard is rigged to...therefore I can't find a way to get in the case to add another 2g stick of RAM. any suggestions? Forgive me if it's overly simple, I'm new

[k1llgor3]

@patfinleyplz just undo the 2 thumbscrew's on the left side aand there ya go.

[Luitsa]

Just got this case, Love the cable management. $25cad with mir. Added 6 120mm Cooler Master sycle blue led fans. almost like an air conditioner. Keeps the component very cool.

Though it should be noted, the case doesnt support very big heat sinks. 140mm max, depending on cpu/mounting configuration. I went with the 120mm Arctic Cooling freezer Xtreme. 131mm fits beautifully.

[EddieLolz3r]

fail all cases should have atleast 3 or 4 fans not 1

[xlzyfox]

@EddieLolz3r look at the price man. Adding a few more fans, prices would have bumped it up to about $70 - $90

[StefanH1234]

@EddieLolz3r

and if you were upgrading from an old case which had fans which you could take out and put in the gamma?

[SoCalyankeefan]

@EddieLolz3r fail you dont realize this case is $40

[ChadAgWing]

@EddieLolz3r FAIL, Coolermaster 4-in-1 120mm case fans costs 11usd.

[SoylentBreen]

Just bought this for $30 shipped from Newegg 2 days ago. Can't wait :)

[FSXman1000]

Will this case fit a Galaxy GeForce GTX 470 video card with inches to spare?

[MrPJJH]

@FSXman1000

Yeah.

From NewEgg: High end graphics card support, the Gamma features space that is especially designed to fit longer 10." cards

[kerolification]

is it just me or does this case not support ssd?

[jamesnuutinen]

video cards upto 10.5inches, does not include power connectors :)

[MultiKitoy]

This is very nice case..got mine today for only $33 from canada computers.

[Zerozx11645]

@MultiKitoy hey just wondering if you've set up your computer yet? If so, how is the case? I already ordered a computer with this case but I'm worried that there will be a large collection of dust because I'm only going to have 1 or 2 fans... (it will go in through the open holes)

[MultiKitoy]

They have psu dust filter at the bottom.You cant go wrong with this case.cable management as well.You have a lot of fan option .M59 side panel window also fit well for this case.I bought 2 since they have sale for $30 and keep the other one.

[wyz101]

I've got this case and it's awesome!

No problems at all, I've got 6/6 fans installed, and it works perfectly!

[heydude09876]

@wyz101

fan sizes plz...

[wyz101]

@heydude09876

6x120mm fans

also possible to have 2x 140mm fans on

the top.

[oqsajec]

i have this case and yes i also agree that it should have came with more than one fan, and yes it is a lil bit on the fugly side (the side thats interesting, not ugly as hell). I have 2 evga 9800GTX+'s in sli with an asus M3N ht deluxe tri sli mobo with a collermaster V8 mounted over my athlon x2. the v8 BARELY fits, i can close the side panel but can't fit a fan so i cut out most of it, added plexi and 2 120mm fans. Its unique, not mainstream and it works great for my rig.

[Zerozx11645]

@oqsajec how is the case? I already ordered a computer with this case but I'm worried that there will be a large collection of dust because I'm only going to have 1 or 2 fans... (it will go in through the open holes)

[steevyp]

with this only being 190mm wide, im wondering what size cpu cooler you couls install! not a very big one thats for sure!!

[lassin1234]

i have CNPS10XEXTREME, fits perfectly!

[ljdacool]

how to remove drive bays..?? i broke one of them.

[steevyp]

@ljdacool

just hit it with a brick ;)

[ljdacool]

@steevyp

r u seriuos cause i broke the drive bay that way

[steevyp]

@ljdacool

yeah seriously mate just hit it with a brick.... or, if all else fails, just throw the whole thing in the bath ;) hahahaha, only kidding!!!

[ljdacool]

@steevyp

inwards or outwards?

[steevyp]

@ljdacool

RIGHT THROUGH THE SIDE OF THE CASE

[ljdacool]

@steevyp

ty

[ThePerentius]

you guys are silly :p Nice to see people with a sense of humor :p

[zed043]

hy, today I bought this case; if you are still searching for an answer to your question, I'll give you; to remove a drive bay, you have to do what the guy in this review is doing on 1:07, you have to remove the front panel, and you'll see that each drive bay has 2 clips which you'll have to push with your finger tips; ;)

[BAouttaVA]

newegg has this for $30 usd with free shipping :]

[maximus112292]

you said 'stock cooler' i haven't seen anywhere ,but here that it comes with a stock cooler. does it or did you just make a mistake?

[DeltaPhi79]

I think when he said "stock cooler", he meant the fan at the back. If you meant at 3:36/3:37, he DID say cooling.

[lee881962]

hi i really need help its ever this case the nzxt gamma or the nzxt m59 if any one can help me id be every great full

[MMODude09]

Pause At 0:19 heh

[escafallen]

freaking awesome case!

[LowsJuan]

These Nzxt cases are cloned. M59, the aluminum lexa which they dont make any more and the other steel lexas. Change the front bezel and side panel and eliminate a fan on the gamma you have and M59. Many chassis that are slightly different. So they painted it black cus it cheaper.

[modn00b]

What's the point of a all-black interior and no side window??? That is totally pointless...

[40ozmaltliquor]

Personally...i think its a great idea. Its hard to find a case with a painted interior; for a cheap price.

it looks slick when the case is open.

I cut the side out and placed plexi.

[Akinit]

For people that mod their cases such as installing their own side windows. But don't want to remove all the rivets to properly paint the interior.

[modn00b]

True, but I don't think the average case buyer will be doing that... Anyhow, a great budget case among the growing number of affordable options from nzxt, coolermaster, and antec.

[Electronicmeltdown]

you can see through the mesh on the side and top of case

[elegadom2]

This case is great for the price, it's like a little brother to the m59.

[trkka]

I'm thinking of using this case for a budget build.

I would install fans to all the available spaces.

Would the case keep cool/be good enough in general if I did that?

[whitericebaby]

The case cost $49.99. I just bought this case.

[hahaha10001]

$45 at amazon

[whitericebaby]

Bought it on amazon total: $47.98 but shipped from tigerdirect.

[crimson177]

does it have a 3.5" bay for my card reader

[VasVortex]

O! this looks like a realy good case.

[ricardop56]

up t 10.5 inches? i can't put my 5870 in there

[hahaha10001]

i think you can, it says NOT GUARANTEED.

i think the back of the 5870 will go in the 3.5" bay

[ricardop56]

oh. well i have a much bigger case than this one. I got a Mountain Mods case.

[FrosChannel]

Looks cheap, but looks like a great case for cooling or a basic PC. I would always stick with Lian-Li.

[ricardop56]

how much was your case?

[FrosChannel]

About 100 bucks.

[ricardop56]

dang i payed almost 600 for mine but its huge.

[sherazuki]

has he ever said this is a bad or shit product?

[baltapedro]

thats because he doesnt want to waste time reviewing products that suck.

[aaronluis26]

Lol, I've wondered that myself xD

[Crodon]

Thats because most products arent shit.

[frazel999]

OMG first time i have seen you in a black shirt Rodney, awsome review

[masterasia11]

The case is nice. It's the fraternal twin of the NZXT M59. Both cases ave very similar. The front bezel looks FUGLY to me.

[TurboHertz]

this is a ripoff of my cooler master scout

[nrc06]

Lol i just got the Scout a few weeks ago, and when i watched this video i was thinking the exact same thing, all the Features are just Replicated. NZXT = FAIL

[TurboHertz]

same here, i think it was 2 weeks ago i got mine

[GeneralMillss]

Does the case not come with a few fans?

[madjimms]

I'm sorry, but the front is VERY ugly.....

[dbdrag1552]

lol... i agree

[tamiong]

how much is this item?

[xoANONiMUSox]

3:40 lol! "Installation of optional ans is highly recommended"

[benjaminbreame]

its not that funny.

[xoANONiMUSox]

what is funny is me trying to figure out what it says! XD

[HanKaotsu]

Nice to see fan filters even on a budget case, however, the 2 side optional fan mounts should have filters as well.

Pretty much wastes the the filters that are there when the ones on the side panel will drive dust in.

[StefanH1234]

unless their withdrawing air, but yeah i agree with you they need fan filters...

[Boonchocks]

Ya, Rodney said it was a "Great Product"!

[tamiong]

its bcoz he only make video reviews about good products... have u seen him reviewed a generic or a looser item or something that uve never heard before? :D

[Boonchocks]

Rodney did it as always; a 100% kickass rewiew!

[lobstrosity25]

Thanks for answering my video card length question in the review. Love your videos.

[RenegadeFury]

When you said: "Since this is a midtower cause there isn't a lot of room to work in..." I was expecting: "and unfortunately the motherboard tray is not removable".

[chumondrey]

this is a great mid-tower case,

this would be my preference if i were building a new pc.

[lgr1991]

with the optional fans, can you just buy any 120mm fan and install them on this case?

[SBBUK]

yes

[ricardop56]

guess what rodney! i bought a mountain mods case. the big one

[yeti6593]

Hi Mr. Reynolds,

Could you explain to me what the holes for liquid cooling are for? I was thinking that the radiator is mounted at a space for fans, then the tubes are just ran to the hardware (obviously with more technical details, etc.) But what are the holes leading to the outside/inside for? Thanks a bunch! (And how about a video with a download links for the music you use? that would be amazing!)

[motrleon]

They're for mounting a radiator externally; you could have just googled... As for music, why don't you just buy the song tracks instead of downloading it illegally? Artists deserve to make money from their songs, it's their livelihood.

[yeti6593]

to lazy to google, and was buzy, so i just asked here. and where am i going to buy songs that rodney made? if he didnt make them then tell me the names and ill get them. thanks

[Zayras7]

Case looks great feature wise, but I don't like the front bezel or the fact that it comes with only one fans.

[takeapieandrun]

Agreed. Besides the fact that you have to buy your own fans and that its fugly on the front, its pretty good.

[cusinndzl]

Nice video.

[Gamerzlife]

hmm why you saying "z" like zen, i notice this is many of your nzxt review.

[yeti6593]

"zad" actually. but why not "zee" i dont know.

[yeti6593]

perhas he's saying "zed," like in britain?

[mvp7747]

hes canadian and that's how some people say the letter "z"

[evildwarf]

He says "zed" because that's how most of the world says it. Americans pronounce it "zee".

[Gamerzlife]

oh thanks did not know that

[takerisen18]

This case actually seems pretty descent for the features it has....It just looks a bit weird and should come with at least 2 fans..

[hahaha10001]

is it the same as the m59?

[Dunceiam]

No, they're slightly different.

[GrimTheToad]

is this the m59?

[Johnalexgray]

Kind of ugly

[cal920c]

Stock cooling diagram was faileur

[vesleengen]

this is what I miss... simple and anonymous cases with no side windows, neon, bling and crap..

all I want is a nice black case with good ventilation, dust filters, and no weird looking design.. and the only case thats even close to that description is the antec 300... even though its a little small

[Vurdox]

so go out and buy it for fucks sake..

[Kenster1025]

What about the Cooler Master ATCS 8? I love how simple it is.

[themigdk]

If you mean the atcs 840 I can strongly recommend it, I love this case. Yet it is very very large so you might wanna think twice before going for a full tower+ case if you have a mid-tower.

Oh and btw Rodney actually uses the atcs 840 case! nice!

[Kenster1025]

I already love that case, and yes I want one, and I know he owns an ATCS 840

[richy123xd]

Ever heard of Lian Li?

[vesleengen]

ever herd the word Lian LI and cheap in the same sentence?

[Kalywonkas]

Lian Li is definately not cheap?

[richy123xd]

"Lian Li may not be cheap, but their products are worth the price."

[benjaminbreame]

yeh, but not in referencee to one another

[mikesw88t]

Not bad but it should come with more fans. Although they are cheap should come with at least a 120mm in front too.

[altops]

10 inch cards only???????? latest cards are 12inches..

[kidowner]

but this is only a mid tower + this case was made long time before those cards came out

[krille757]

he said great for once and not kickass!!!

[Troothforc]

that seems to mean it's not as good, but not bad either.

[r2stik]

headphone and usb and others should be positioned up not on the floor - sad:)!

[wolf1isgood]

HAF 932 Forever <3

[legion696]

What the motive of the front bezel shape? Looks weird...

[Izliecies]

I think this is basically the same as NZXT M59 except for the fornt bezel, side window and side fan. Otherwise they're pretty much the same..

Are there any problems with MB standoff inserting into the MB? Cause some reviews said that M59 had such problems.

[vitowito]

i think this is the best interior for a mid sized tower case iv ever seen

[ModeloIbarra]

is it just great cuz....it cant fit the new ati cards? rodney! fan boy! I still love u buddy.

[xxPeCe]

If you want case for ATI's new cards and good airflow you should buy Full Tower case like CoolerMaster HAF, Antec 1200 etc.

[dacasman]

my antec 900 has a 2/3 inch crack in the window, anybody think i should get this as a replacement?

[RobCharles1981]

Yeah you should get it replaced, contact Antec Support and explain the problem they will need photographic evidence.

[iNfx1]

No, just buy some plexi and cut it, it's really cheap.

The cooling on this case isn't even close to being as good as the A900

[dacasman]

alright cool, thanks for the reply : )

[rampageturke]

need a good value case? get the xigmatek midgard

[GordonT92]

i got the nzxt beta case and it is fantastic
