NZXT Tempest - Mid Tower Case Review

[SLeePYG727860]

Love this case. Been using it for about 3 years now.

[TheRammsteizer]

whats the difference between this and the Evo?

[nishchal]

M planing to buy FSP EVEREST 80PLUS 1010W PSU .... will it fit in this NZXT TEMPEST ??

[hellowsaw]

what is the difference between this and the evo?

[lycanwolf2]

@hellowsaw Evo is better... I don't know all of the differences but evo is supposed to be much better.

[partyjackthexboxguy]

so will it work with an atx mb and a zalman fan

[Splorked]

Can you connect all the fans to the motherboard?

[plasticsandvich92]

i see what you did there

[IAMDAVEAMI]

oi

i like the fan flow on this case but not big on the PSU ont he bottom but good case if it was on the top mount for PSU but good case

wish mine had fans filters and top fans

the end

:P

[pwnagex1]

would the nzxt tempest fit the COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus

[no1Reality]

@pwnagex1 yes!

[moonshiry]

im having difficulties to choose between this casing, or the hades casing. Hades casing has a 200 mm front fan, 200mm side fan, 140mm back fan, and 2 120 or 140 mm fans on top. BUT this case is more stylish LOL

[nickbu1]

Whats the difference between this one (NZXT Tempest) and the NZXT Tempest Evo??

[teenawa]

i have this tower, the noices from the fan's are not loud! Sorry for me bad english!

[joeyaaaaaaaa]

Tempest EVO FTW!!!

[alilcupcakethatpwnsu]

2:56 is that a dual 140mm radiator on toP!?!?!? i want a case that does internal cooling!

[revenant3154]

All cases do internal cooling, the top fans suck the hot air out

[McClover]

why do you voice over...

[FragileStaticCircus]

I suggest the Apevia X-Cruiser2...$74.99 @ newegg.

[grpace]

From what I hear the antec 300 is a great case and its great for modding if your into that.

[TehPCGamer]

trust me on this one. get the nzxt apollo. it got great review and looks great

[icemen33]

i have a raidmax tornado and like it a lot

[ThatFlipKidxD]

Get the Cooler Master CM690 case for $79.99

[Kg363]

Cooler master RC 690

[laservader1]

cooler master 335 elite great little case cheaper then the anetc as well

[xchlppprsx]

go with the 300 its a good case for its price range

[wawa779]

Ok but thing is i found a nzxt m59 its new Its not to bad I might go with that one it's got pretty good features for only 60

[phgHunter]

Stupid question: Do you have to use both of the molex connectors for the fan?

[PCWizKid]

@phgHunter , no you dont.

[Halio344Gaming]

@phgHunter there are no stupid questions about computers, everyone cant know everything

[gearsofhores21]

will this case keep everything cool on if i have two 9800 gtx 1gb sli ready video cards and liquid cooling for my quad core intel processor operating at 3.0ghz

[nodgerdodger]

How good is the cable management on this?

[PCWizKid]

Well I recommend you use a modular PSU with this case. Even though there are holes for cables, the gap between the mobo and the side pinal is small for thick cables.

[IIBainsII]

Can you fit NorthQ 3590 Water Cooling Kit in this? =)

[thatparkourdude]

I have one of these cases, and I think you could fit a full sized midget in one of these. =P

[iNfx1]

huh? cpu coolers are installed onto the motherboard, not the case.

[boogery]

I think he means the hole is used to siwtch out your CPU cooler without taking your motherboard out

[nofyt]

i didnt understand the part with the CPU cooler, so i wont be able to install a new fan or what?

[turokdinosaurkiller]

Does the side fan also come with a dust filter??

Is it possible to fit a Cooler Master V8 cooler into this case????

[BMM51]

So, the only fans what are blowing the air out of it are the ones on top of the case?

[PCWizKid]

The top and the back of the case.

[Danklin24]

ive never seen a hole in the mb tray to replace the cooler. wtf? how would you even do that? The screws would be lost.

[AM2196]

its an easy way to install coolers with back plates

[Cheburashka94]

actully he also some in white

it was releaased in white like 3 weeks ago

[glovethief30]

given that it's got six million fans, how loud does it get, the mesh front seems like it wouldn't even muffle sound a little

[PCWizKid]

its the Video Card fan and the PSU fan that are loud, the case fans are not that bad.

[CrazyofSound]

I own this case and i can say to you, that the sounds comes only from psu or cpu or graphics coolers!! The case coolers have 16-21 dB (I think). So u wont hear anything!! Can only say, that u will be happy if u buy this case :D

[thatparkourdude]

I have one of these cases and I have no problems. At start up it's about as loud as an Xbox 360, and after it gets to your desktop you can barely hear it at all.

[IIBainsII]

can you fit a NorthQ 3590 Water Cooling Kit in this?

[reed2slc]

holy shit, i was just gonna ask that to!

i think it might fit on the top there ...

[IIBainsII]

That's what i thought too!!

Anyways, does anyone know? :)

[seljemann]

yay my case=D

[darkgohan18]

i am buildig a pc and i love this case a lot!!!!

[MN12BIRD]

Hehe we just got these cases in at work today and I got to give it a good looking over. I say not bad but I'm not sure if I like it better than the Nine Hundred. Its got ESATA on the front and that's nice. Overall I like it, some things not so much like the vertical hard drive mounts and the mounts for the 5.25" bays seemed funky. I like all the fans and it is good looking overall but is it really worth more than the Nine Hundred? I dunno.

[brokenmoth08]

I always thought this case was just a rip off of the Antec 900, but the tool-less design looks very nice. Unless they come out with a full tower version later this year I will still get the Antec 1200, or CM Cosmos.

[Heartagramerz]

i was gonna get this but the CM HAF932 is too sexy

[Peetah16]

nzxt is an awsome growing company

like china is a growing countryXD

[Blazar11]

very nice.

[jlmarcella]

i have dis case it is AWESOME!!!!

[araz1994]

oes it get loud?

and how much did u buy it for?

[F3NIXfilmz]

Nice review! Just wondering, what video editing software do you use?

[rucka704]

cooler master stacker

[rucka704]

Cooler master 820 stacker

[Sydaaad]

Nice vid, 5 stars, I had never heard of NZXT untill I saw your Video. Well presented, keep up the good work............

[cah027]

He sounds like Matthew Brodrick

[swicked4911]

YEah hey

[mpablo85]

good video

[Havoc928]

nice review

[s3thisc00l]

He forgot to mention the Blue LED Cathodes

[PCWizKid]

Actually no I didnt, I mentioned that the front bezel lights up in blue and that the cables I showed were for that.

[HomlessEddie]

I have this case and i absolutely love it!

[XxGam3rFr3akxX]

What is the song in ur videos? Thanks

[RamenJutsu]

i think its his own composed song

[MN12BIRD]

NZXT always seemed to make decent (but not great) cases until I saw this one. MaximumPC reviewed this case and said they beat Antec at their own case! It does look nicer than the 900 and has some extra features too. But I've yet to see one of these in person yet.

[kingcarcas1349]

Case is awesome, i was looking at this one and the Antec 900.

[CerKon]

IMHO the big differences between the tempest and the 900 (which i own) is the 900 has a a 200mm fan on top instead of 2 140mm, The 900 has no tool less design stuff or filters on the 2 front fans and the 900 has switches that allow you change the fan speed (low,medium,high). other than that they're pretty much the same.

[BIAHH102]

does the tempest have the switch that changes the speed

[swicked4911]

Nope =[

Go with the HAF 932 by CoolerMaster, or, even better, the Antec P180. Djustable fan speeds and silence in the P180.

[NikeySunfire]

the HAF doesnt come with dust filters, and i can't find 230mm dust filters :S, though the P180/2 its an excellent case

[EMGPJt]

great case but the no cooling case room kinda sucks for gamers like me

[chriscrasto]

Pretty good review! Work on making your hand gestures and narration work together well. Also, you mentioned the fact that you can't install a fan in the power supply unit bay....you're not supposed to! The power supply has one on and you HAVE to have a power supply for your case....I didn't understand you there. This comment isn't for bashing, just helpful criticizing, great work so far, hope to see more vids! Thought of changing the music or having none for a change? Just wondering...

[fridsade]

I really want this.

[jobush50]

nice case

[jsnyara]

my first impression......antec 300 with clear side panel.

[Christopher1679]

Cool Case men

[Cypherus21]

Thanks for the great review. I like how you go through the case mechanics thoroughly so prospective purchasers won't be surprised when they receive their product.

[darrenparadissis]

You have been doing A lot of reviews lately.

[PCWizKid]

Hi, yes its all part of my reviews on building a PC Gaming Rig. Stay tuned for more.

[darrenparadissis]

Oh Nice, Yeah I'll be sure to keep up to date with your vids I really enjoy them. :]

[AccordionManiac]

btw Your HD encoding is excellent!

[AccordionManiac]

Those dust filters are extremely great ideas!! Well done to the manufacturer/designer! Nice review!

[MajorDisaster4u]

thanks for the review!!

[ItOnlyTakes4]

whoa whats this new option "Watch in HD"? its no longer HQ?

[PiranhaBytesGothic]

hd and hq mean the same thing like hq=high qaulity and hd=high definition there both da same lol

[spiritgerm]

nope piranhabytesgothic, you're wrong. HD is new to youtube, its a lot better than HQ and to get HD u have to add &fmt=22 to the url and for HQ, you have to add &fmt=18 so its different. Try it and you'll see that &fmt=22 is better

[PiranhaBytesGothic]

oh thanks for that info but all my videos dont have it dont work?

[spiritgerm]

well its really new so i guess thats why not every video has HD. But i also think the user who uploads the video has to upload it in a really good quality like avi...but im not sure

[PiranhaBytesGothic]

ohh ok thats alright thanks dude

[spiritgerm]

no problem:D

[kainaussie]

how are u getting all these cases?

[sixtx]

Ok so this is a great review from you. Keep doing them.

[Peter07Pal]

[PCWizKid]

Thanks, I think... :P

[stolemybiker]

[shirke01]

[ghosty4ever]

[techguy10210]

Still would prefer the coolermaster case over this one though.

[everynameistakenomg]

Well done video, I really like the case.

[PCWizKid]

[drewcute2000]
