Introduction

I would like to thank
CaseKing.de for supplying the review samples.
CaseKing is one of the few companies out there, which will not just sell anything. They only offer hardware that performs well and is of high quality. The shop offers quite a few exclusive parts and devices from all around the world and it is also the official distributor for a long list of well known manufacturers. Their assortment has grown greatly in recent years, while great service and support is still a very important part of the shop philosophy. The website may be in German, but due to great demand, an English version is in the works. We received continous support from CaseKing and they were kind enough to send us the latest from NZXT: the H2 chassis in black.
The NZXT H2 will be available in two different colors: white with a silver front and black on black.

Packaging
NZXT ships the H2 chassis in a plain brown box, but there are simple images of the chassis in its two variations, while the back goes into greater detail about the features - all black on brown. I am a bit surprised to see such a simple packaging for a case that costs 100 USD or 100 Euro. Considering the unique set of features, the H2 could have been presented much better with an all color packaging.
Compact Styrofoam spacers hold the chassis in place while keeping the overall dimensions of the package as small as possible. This reduces the shipping costs for the manufacturer and distributors, as more cases can be placed within a container or on a palette.
