How the mighty have fallen. From PC cases that set fire to stuff. To scamming and debit trapping customers.

In the early days when they were mainly making PC cases and PC cooling accessories they were pretty good. They seem to have either grown too big for their boots or been swallowed up by investment groups who then moved in and fired (or forced them to leave) key people who were looking after the brand and making sure it doesnt turn into what its turned in to.


My first proper PC build used a NZXT Guardian case and thats something I will never forget.

Antec SX830 for me, before that some Generic IBM AT compatible case. It was a breath of Freshair what Gamemax recently released, no rainbow vomit with 5.25 bays-very clean case
