Review on πŸ–₯️ Zalman S3 ATX Mid Tower PC Case: Smoky Acrylic Side Panel, Three 120mm Fans, Patterned Mesh Design, Black by Andrey Andro ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money, I recommend.

Similar to the AeroCool Cylon, almost identical casing with the exception of a different front panel, both just purchased. Hardware: RX584 and i5 6400 (gammax 200T). Protsu is typically very cold. But when playing games, the video card is virtually always operating at full speed. GigabyteAurus, tdp 185W (fresh from the store; not used; not a miner). without dumping, marriage, and other things! I added a third valve for blowing out from above, one under the video card, and two more for blowing in. It doesn't help; to be more accurate, it only makes things somewhat better. The problem is only somewhat improved by opening the lid or glass. In summary, I do not advise Radiks to use anything larger than 1066 x 1063 or anything with a similar tdp up to 150W. Additionally, the case is substantially smaller than the Z9 +. Perfect for a low-cost build, such as a 1050Ti. I do not suggest using hot iron parts at all. (Well, either plug up every hole with a valve and hope it works.)

Pros
  • after all, price! (purchased for 2234r) outside and interior Zalman. Despite having the most fan and HDD mounts
Cons
  • thin metal, as in all cases of this nature, is terrible in this price range! power diodes and a bright HDD (I had to stick it using tape) Poor case purge; hot iron barely removes anything
