Zalman Z11 NEO

Darksaber · Jul 18, 2015

Things may have been a bit quiet on the case front with Zalman, but they still offer a wide range of products, including the Z11 NEO, which surprises. The Z11 NEO looks bulky and comes with a great feature set on paper and a small price tag. Having reviewed Zalman cases quite some time ago, it is now time to figure out what the Z11 NEO brings to the table.

Looks like a modernised Asus Vento case.

Thanks for the excellent review Darksaber :toast:

I like the case. Here's hoping it will be available in my country.

What a lovely surprise! I did not see this review coming. I fell in love with this case the moment it was announced. I didn't expect a review of it, to be fair. But oh boy some nice pictures in there. Really a great case, at least for me.

It's priced around 57$ in my country, which is very affordable.
Too bad it lacks grommet.

This case looks sick! AND THAT FOR $75!!!! Yeah, kudos to Zalman

One note: I heard they were bankrupt, how are they doing now? Any news on that?

Killer case considering the price-tag...

Can someone explain why the hell manufacturers still think we need "dedicated" USB2 ports on the front of cases?

Zalman will not be closing. The rumor was mostly perpetrated by the competitors, and the Japanese "notice" that started the whole rumor was not even bankruptcy related.
