Benchmark Reviews, BCCHardware, Bona Fide Reviews, techPowerUp, and TestSeek have reviewed Gamma, M59, Panzerbox, and Tempest EVO.

Let's see what they had to say:

  • Benchmark Reviews: NZXT Gamma Gaming Case Review:

    "To tell you the truth, I certainly wasn't expecting what I got with the NZXT Gamma. I am still befuddled by the riddle of how NZXT fit so many features into this case and can still sell it for under $50. I highly recommend the Gamma Mid-Tower Computer case for anyone at any level of computing prowess. You will not be disappointed."

  • Benchmark Reviews: NZXT M59 Mid-Tower Computer Case Review:

    "This case performs well; it's not a tool-less case (but no case at this price point is). It offers ample interior room for most builds and is easy to work with.

    The NZXT M59's appearance is bold and rather aggressive. This may not be to everyone's taste, but it a good fit for the intended market. Touches like the finished interior and the hidden fasteners for the side window are nice extras.

    The construction quality of the case was top-notch. The side panels slipped on and off smoothly; drives snapped firmly into place, and all the parts fit well."

  • BCCHardware: NZXT Gamma Classic Series Case Review:

    "In conclusion, it's pretty hard not to like this case - especially when you consider the price. For $50, you're not going to find a better case that can hold a bunch of drives, support long graphics cards, hold a monster PSU and provide excellent ventilation and easy heatsink installation (hole in motherboard tray). While it seems like it should clearly be a winner, there are a couple of drawbacks that keep it from getting top honors. First, the case feels quite flimsy. We had no issues with it during testing, but the side panels are very thin and can be easily bent if you're not careful. Second, while ventilation is plentiful, you'll have to drop another $50 on fans in order to keep this case well ventilated - and that doesn't make it a bargain anymore."

  • Bona Fide Reviews: NZXT PANZERBOX Aluminum Chassis PC Case Review:

    "Overall the Panzerbox is a great case, it’s got a lot of room, it’s well made and installation is easy with the removable motherboard tray and the thumbscrews. The dual 19omm fans will most certainly keep any system cool, and you can fit even the largest video cards in the case with no problems.

    Yes it’s loud, and it’s heavy, but I guess you’ve got to sacrifice somewhere right?"

  • techPowerUp: NZXT Tempest EVO Case Review:

    "NZXT has taken the original Tempest and fine tuned it, adding a nice list of new features to the case, while managing to keep the price the same upon launch. This new case, called Tempest EVO scores further points with us for the black interior along with small updates to the overall functionality as well as the new aspects in design. Considering the price tag, Tempest comes with plenty of cool features that aren't available in a lot of enclosures. NZXT already managed to turn heads by including six fans into the original Tempest and the EVO continues to offer the same number. This creates some great air flow, but you better be prepared for some noise in that regard."

  • TestSeek: NZXT M59 Caseþ Review:

    "This is the second case from NZXT that I have reviewed and I am as impressed with this one as I was with the first. I feel the biggest benefit with the NXZT cases is all the smart innovations which make them so pleasant to work with.

    Another remarkable thing about the M59 case is of course its somewhat unusual design. I’m sure that it’s not for everyone but I love the aggressiveness in its design. It looks especially good when it’s running in a dark room."

NZXT's designs and build quality are constantly improving, and they are definitely becoming a force to be reckoned with in the case sector.
