Installation

• Motherboard: MSI 890GXM-G65
• Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 975BE
• CPU-cooler: Noctua NH-D14
• Graphics card: AMD Radeon HD 6870
• Memory: Corsair XMS3 4x1 GB DDR3 1600 MHz
• PSU: Antec HCP-850 W
• HDD: Samsung F4EG 1500 GB 5400 rpm

HDDs are installed by first mounting the HDD to a small rack and then sliding the rack to the HDD cage. There are also anti-vibration rubbers in the HDD racks. Technically this solution is pretty usual nowadays but the rack where you mount the HDD is a bit stiff. This could have been designed better.

Installed

The installation was very easy because there was a lot of space to work. There were no problems what so ever during the assembly. NZXT Switch 810 really makes large Noctua NH-D14 look tiny. Also Antec HCP-850W is relatively big PSU but it sure doesn’t look big when it’s installed to Switch 810.

The cable management is well designed and it was child’s play to hide the cables. Actually I can’t name even one thing that NZXT has done wrong when considering the cable management.
