Again, following the Rogue's footsteps the drive cages are made from thick aluminum and even feature a slight heatsink pattern. There's also thin rubber strips in order to prevent excess vibrations. Beside these strips, the bottom HDD-cage is also resting on some more rubber pads, so NZXT is really trying to keep those vibrations under control. Thumb screws are used for both all the drives and the expansion cards, so this is really starting to look like a tool-free installation.

Under the "Lan Ready" the box stated that the case was dual 120 mm radiator ready, and in fact the bundle contained support brackets for installing a radiator to the roof of the case. This means removing the 190 mm fan and replacing it with the rad fitted with the mounting brackets. Installing the radiator still lets you use the motherboard tray, which is nice.

This time around, the motherboard tray is actually useful as there's plenty of clearance for even the highest tower coolers. I usually don't really care if a case comes with a removable motherboard tray, but again due to the weird PSU-placament this can come very handy.
Installation

The installation was easy enough, but turned out to be an awful cable mess. There isn't really any good space to hide the unnecessary cables, so they ended up just lying there. Without a radiator installed, the top of the case looks kinda abandoned and doesn't really serve much purpose. I like the overall shape of the case, but would like to see a smaller, maybe mATX version coming up.

Still not much to see on the rear side.
