Zalman MS800 Plus Review

(1 Comment) »

Introduction


I would like to thank Zalman for supplying the review sample.


The MS800 chassis comes in a normal and a "Plus" version. We have the pleasure of looking at the better equipped Plus variant which also comes with a windowed side panel.

Packaging


Zalman ships the MS800 Plus in a fully colored cardboard box. The front holds a partial image of the chassis, while the rear details the chassis' features with a list of icons. Both sides hold additional information, with a list of specifications and features. Those looking for an image of the full chassis will be disappointed as there is none.


Two Stryrofoam spacers hold the case in place inside the cardboard box. While these are usually placed on top and bottom, Zalman has gone with the front and rear instead. A plastic bag protects the MS800 Plus from scratches and fingerprints.

Contents


Zalman includes all-black screws, some zip ties, an additional Zalman logo, and a CPU power-extension cable, but you will also get an 92 mm fan for use within the case, alongside a fairly detailed manual.
