T6 ATX Mid Tower Computer PC Case, Pre-Installed 120mm Fan, 5.25 ODD, USB 3.0, Patterned Mesh Design, mATX ITX for Gaming Workstation, Black

This is a great case as long as you know what you are in for. Can you build a gaming pc in it, yes. Should you, no. Mainly due to cooling potential. This is, however, an ideal case for a workstation. I will be using it to build a new pc for my senior-citizen relatives. Pros: low cost, lightweight, has a 5.25inch bay for optical drive, surprisingly small for an ATX mid-tower case (fits a full size ATX motherboard easily). Meh: metal is thin (contributes to both light-weightedness and top-heaviness). No venting on the top or bottom (good or bad is use-case dependent). Finally a very minor issue, IF you are using this case for ATX build, be aware only 6 of the 9 necessary motherboard standoffs are pre-installed, the remainders/extra are included with the other hardware but must be installed yourself. Cons: Biggest issue for me is the mount for the power supply is at the top and makes it very top heavy, definitely would have preferred psu mounting on the bottom for such a lightweight case. Might not be ideal for beginners as the case is very tight with ATX build and can be difficult to work in, let alone cable manage. No USB-C on the front I/O panel. All the screws come together in one bag with no separation, 3 types of screws, 4 if you include mb standoffs, all in one non-ziplock bag... irritating. Personal: Zalman is a trusted brand. In the last 22 years I've had 3 pc cases and 2 were Zalman, which lasted about 18-19 of those years. Overall, this case is great. But again, it depends on your what you'll use it for. I am using integrated graphics from cpu and a low profile cooler which means there is a lot of empty space in the case, which likely contributes to the top-heavy nature I previously mentioned. That being the case, I wish there was a version where it is half the width and the spot for the optical drive was rotated 90 degrees to remain included, a bottom mounted psu, and perhaps more venting on top to compensate for the smaller size and fan size.

I bought two of these cases to put on a class for secondary school students in Belize. I packed all the components inside the cases using the original shipping boxes/packaging, and took them on the flight. Both arrived in great shape. The cases worked out great, giving the students the experience of building their own PC, and getting to understand what each of the components do. The cases were sturdy yet light weight. Functionally, they have good air flow with a back-panel fan and the power supply mounted at the top of the case. There are walk-throughs to route the wire to conceal them on the backside mounting panel. The only concerns were the difficulty in removing the back-panel slots (they're stamp metal, and you need to twist them out carefully without damaging the thin metal between them). The students were able to do it themselves to install the graphic cards. They are functional and are aesthetically pleasing. The school will continue to use them for their digital creative arts classes. I would use these for my personal builds and recommend these.

I needed an inexpensive mid-sized case for an ATX MoBO build which I was transferring from a much larger case. I needed this case to fit under a particular piece of furniture. Bottom line, this fit the bill nicely. Couple points: Metal sheet is pretty thin, which makes for a light case, but it's not real heavy duty. I used (and recommend) at least one aftermarket fan in the front to pull air in to the case (I used two). These need to be installed before anything else (another buyer noted that same point) particularly if putting in a full ATX MoBo. You will not have the room after the board is in to get the fan screws in place. The front plastic panel is most easily pulled off from the bottom. Just be gentle and firm and it will pop right off. Goes back on easy as well. Recommend removing the enclosed exhaust fan prior to mounting the MoBo. You'll need some maneuver space. I had 2 SSD's for this build, a 500 GB and 250 GB. These are mounted outside the main part of the case, which takes a little consideration for cabling. Easily done though. ATX MoBo is s tight fight, but it fits. Don't forget your standoff nuts, these are not all in place for the ATX board. I also used aftermarket cooling. The tower is too high to allow for a side mount fan in this case. Back panel is a little loosey-goosey. This is where the thin metal sheet is most evident. To allow for the GPU to seat one must pop out the panels. They will be destroyed doing this so make sure you line up your cards correctly. It looked wonky initially, but once the GPU was in place everything locked down tight, no issues. Power supply mounts on top, which I was initially a little concerned about but it worked out nicely. This particular power supply is not modular, so it's a bit of beast in terms of excess cables, but there was more than sufficient space to store them away. Since this isn't a display build I did not concern myself with fancy cable management, a few enclosed zip ties to keep things tidy was about it. So again, good case for the money. Not sure I would use it for my first build though. I'd recommend laying out a little more to get a more modular and flexible case, something with a bit more room and more heavy duty. However if you've got a build or two under your belt, and you aren't concerned with being the Michelangelo of PC building, this will work fine.

This isn't a super fancy tower by any means, but it is practical, cheap, and gets the job done. It has a kockout panel for disk drives. Some may not see the value in that but there is a lot of value in that nowadays. I still use this case and do not plan on changing it.

The case is inexpensive but sturdy, especially once you start mounting stuff in it. Removing the metal punch-outs for Optical drive and Video Card requires in addition to pushing the with your fingers bending the metal with a pair of pliers and then using a small file (and a paper or tissue underneath to catch the filings) to remove the resulting sharp metal jagged edges. There are about a dozen motherboard stand-offs included, which require a 3/16" or 5mm socket to screw into the case. I used a flat tip medium size screwdriver to start to pry the front panel, after which it came off easily. I removed two adjacent rear punch outs and also the thin section between them (which bent easily) to mount the double width video graphics card. And of course using a small file (and a paper or tissue underneath to catch the filings) to remove the resulting sharp metal jagged edges. I mounted a single 120mm fan blowing air in the front. You have to mount the front panel and then insert the optical drive from the front, and then screw in the drive mounting screws. Tight fit with the power supply and optical drive up top, and tucking in and using cable ties to secure the cables somewhat so they don't fall down or wind up hitting the CPU fan blades. I took some pictures and captioned some of them to hopefully help other people see what could be involved in using this case. I like that this inexpensive case has an option for mounting an optical drive. Some of use still use CDs and DVDs for software and video and music. It took some time to get everything in and doesn't look the neatest, but the result is a small compact unit.

This worked perfectly for my build. ATX Motherboard fit just right. Make sure to install the rear fan before installing the MB - I had to take the MB out and put the fan in and reinstall the MB, but that was the only issue I had with the case in the whole process. I really like the Controls, Sound Ports and USB Ports located on the top front of the case. Plenty of room and an external bay for the DVD drive.

I needed a new mid-sized ATX PC case for my home computer and decided to get this Zalman T6 computer tower case. Description states, "Pre-Installed 120mm Fan", but when I got it today, I got the PC case just fine, but NO 120mm fan to be found....they did not install ANY 120mm fan. I had to use an older 120mm fan for the backside of this Zalman PC case. That's a deduction of 1 star there. Second glaring defect were the motherboard black mounting screws or whatever you call those thingies are so cheap...when I use the screws to screw into those mounting brackets to connect it to this PC case, they warped the case and right now, the motherboard is installed, but not tight to the motherboard....wobbley in fact. I will simply keep it like this and sort it out later and that's a deduction of 1 more star. Cheaply built and it bends easily. Deduct 1 more star for that chinese cheapness factor there. There is a lot of room to work inside this PC case. Install whatever ATX or mini-ATX motherboard into this case before installing anything else....it's not that big inside to work around and will make future stuff to install such as CPU chip and cooler fan, the DVD burner, video card and so on. There is just 1 5.25 slot for whatever....in my case....a CD/DVD player/burner and it installed pretty easily. It has 3 USB ports, mic jack and headphone jack on top with the control panel all located at the top front of this PC case....pretty nice. Seems decent, tho fan ventilation is not the best. I have installed 2 120mm fans and will install a smaller internal fan up front to keep it cooler inside this PC case.....however the front of this case lacks vent holes. Whoever designed this Zalman T6 case, could have most certainly done a better job. In regards to the missing 120mm "Pre-Installed 120mm Fan" situation....I notified Amazon and they gave me a partial refund.....most likely to cover the possible cost of a 120mm PC cooling fan. I rate this PC case 3 stars because it was because of those glaring issues I mentioned earlier. I know it's just a $60 basic PC case, but when Amazon puts in its description......"Zalman T6 ATX Mid Tower Computer PC Case, Pre-Installed 120mm Fan, 5.25 ODD, USB 3.0" and so on.....and the 120mm fan was not there.....that is not a good thing. 3 stars. Thanks.

For the price, this case is worth buying. I put a micro ATX in it with a GTX 970. Ryzen 5 2600 with stock Wraith cooler. Mounted 3 hard drives to it, and it still has a lot of open space for the fans to move air through. Like most products though, it has it's pros and cons. It seems like a lot of cons, but unless you are doing a serious high end professional build, those cons aren't game breaking, just things to consider as you plan your build. Pros: Great air flow. Seriously, put some quality fans in it and it will keep your system cool Great price. If you are on a tight budget, this case will fit it. Cons: If you chose to water cool your CPU or GPU, you can only use a 120mm setup. There is no way to install a 240mm radiator on this case, not even in the front. You will need to use either the rear fan, or side panel fan to install your radiator (side panel fan may not have enough room, depending on placement of your GPU. The openings for cable management need to be placed better. The motherboard covers a few of them, and the others just kind of sit out in the open and don't really offer you a lot of options to make it look clean. It took me over an hour on cable management and I'm ok with it, but I'm not proud of it. The front fans MUST be installed first, or you will find yourself removing the GPU, and RAM at a minimumin order to get a screwdriver inside to screw the fans to the case. The metal is thin and a bit flimsy. Don't try to force anything. Once it's together, it seems solid, but you could easily damage this if you aren't careful during the build. EDIT: In regards to installing a 2x120mm Radiator on the front. My son informed me that if I removed the front panel, you could in theory, install it on the front. The downside would be that you can't put the front panel back on.

La tour bien qu'assez light dans sa conception est très bien conçue et accueille sans problème CPU + Ventilateur assez imposant, dans mon cas un "Noctua NH-D15 Chromax Black 140mm" sur un processeur Ryzen 7 + 2 ventilateurs de 120mm supplémentaires en façade. Le nombre suffisant d'ouvertures permet une gestion des câbles assez efficace (*). Autre point positif, la baie 5,25", pour installer un lecteur/graveur Bluray ou DVD, chose assez rare qui mérite d'être mentionnée ! (*) Par contre vu la taille de la tour, je ne saurais que conseiller de prendre une alimentation modulaire. Avec une alimentation standard, vous risquez de galérer pour placer tous les câble inutiles. Sinon, très content de mon achat.

I bought this case from Amazon and I’m honestly very disappointed. The metal is so thin that it literally bends and shakes like paper! The build quality is terrible, and with such flimsy materials, the product’s lifespan is extremely short — which means more waste and harm to the environment. I really wish I had spent a bit more on a better-quality case. I do not recommend this product at all.

Good price and arrived on time. Well made for a simple case. No bracket for hanging 3.5" HD, though screw holes on bottom to bolt one down. 3 attachment points for 2.5" ssd which seemed a bit odd. Hole in case front if you want it for 5.25" disk drive BUT no structure to hang it on. No issue for me. Plenty of screws included including mounts for motherboards as the case side is not flat so they are needed if you have an ATX motherboard. Single small fan on rear (80mm) but vent holes for 120mm fan on side. Does what I need so a good purchasae for me.

コンパクトな、激安ATXケースです。 一応、5インチのオープンベイが1本ありますが、今時の構成向きの奥行きの短いケースです。 掲題の通り、電源を上部に設置するので、理想的なエアフローが実現できます。 ケース本体はビックリするほど軽く、少々不安になる位に鉄板が薄いです。 激安なので、PCIスロットカバーは曲げて折り取るタイプですが、鉄板が薄過ぎて、注意しないとスロットのフレームごと曲がってしまいそうです。 組立時や使用時に不用意に荷重を掛けると潰れてしまうので、せめてあと0.1mm厚ければ安心して使えるのではないかと思います。 比較的コンパクトなケースですが、サイドパネルが膨らんでいる関係で、CPUの補助電源を除き裏配線も可能です。 SATAのSSDやHDDも取り付け可能ですが、独立したベイは無いので、フロントのケースファンとの排他利用になる等、ちょっとイレギュラーな取付方法になります。 自分はドライブがM.2のSSDのみなので、かなりスッキリしたレイアウトで組む事ができました。 高級感等は皆無ですが、コスパに優れた優秀なATXケースだと思います。 個人的に唯一気に入らない点は、電源スイッチ類が天面に有る事です。 USB等のダストカバーは付属するものの、やはり前面の方が圧倒的に使い易いと思いますので、個人的に改善して欲しい部分です。 スイッチ類のパネルを5インチベイ部分に移設するキットを、別売りで出してくれませんか？ZALMANさん。

Voilà un boitier qui ne paye pas de mine mais est excellent pour construire un PC. La peinture est de bonne qualité, il y a de la place pour une carte ATX et un ventirad Pure Rock. On peut faire du cable management mais c'est mieux avec une alimentation modulaire. J'ai monté 2 ventilateurs silencieux de 120 mm en façade sans problèmes et j'ai remplacé le 120 à l'arrière par le même modèle. Montage d'un SSD, d'un disque dur 3.5 et d'un graveur DVD, c'est juste mais ça rentre. La visserie, les colliers de serrage et les équerres sont fournis et c'est parfait pour le prix.
