NZXT Lexa S Mid Tower PC Case Review

By Dan Stoltz

Introduction and Packaging

Today we are going to look at the Lexa S, a brand new case from NZXT. NZXT wanted to bring an enthusiast level case to the market while keeping the cost conscious in mind. Coming in under $70.00 the NZXT Lexa S brings features commonly found in much more expensive cases to the table. Offering features such as mounting for a dual radiator, and a finished interior the NZXT may prove to be a winner.

Taking at look at the front of the case gives us an idea of the look of the NZXT Lexa S. Though as sharp as the image on the front of the box is, it doesn’t do justice to the Lexa S.
