Xigmatek Zest Review
Packaging & Contents »Introduction
I would like to thank Xigmatek for supplying the review sample.
The Xigmatek Zest chassis is a beefy, flashy enclosure that also garners a lot of attention with two massive aRGB fans behind the solid glass front panel. On top of that, the side panel of the same material allows you to show off your parts as well. While we have not reviewed Xigmatek gear and things have quieted down around the brand over the recent years, let's dive right into the review of the case and see if it has the zest (pun intended) to put the brand back on the map.
