NZXT H2: an innovative and affordable housing

Leaving the H2 Classic NZXT finally presents innovative and affordable housing. Do not expect a revolutionary product, it is still a classic waist (215 x 466 x 520 mm) constructed of sheet steel (except the front door is covered with a plastic sheet aluminum). But NZXT has endowed many refinements improve the silence and ergonomics.

For silence, there are cages with hard discs cushioning, shock-absorbing pads between the mounting food and especially the foam insulation on the main walls of the housing. For ergonomics, NZXT has added a USB 3.0 port on the front plus two USB 2.0 and headphone / microphone, two holes for watercooling pipes and above a location on the top of the device for a hard disk 3, 5 ".

This site has a SATA connector, making it a docking station for an additional hard drive easily removable. The 8 internal 3.5" bays and 3 external 5.25 "bays are all" screwless " . A system of cables behind the motherboard bracket allows for mounting very clean. Ventilation is by three 120 mm fans (two front, one rear) with a speed adjustable on three levels with selector switch on the control panel next to the USB ports and buttons on / off and reset.

A fourth 140 mm fan can be installed above the CPU heatsink after removing the cover that covers the magnetic grid. Note finally that tolerates H2 graphics cards 31 cm in length (by removing a drawer for HDD). It will be available for 100 € mid-April.
