This review is from: NZXT Guardian 921 RB 921RB-001-BL Black SECC Steel, ABS Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Pros: looks great. easy on the eyes and has a nice new age look to it temperature probes for the system, CPU, and HDD cost less than other competitors amazing air flow
Cons: the instructions that come with are useless for a first time builder like me. I recommend that this case should not even come with instructions, they were that bad. the temperature readout went out after two days on mine the cable management is very tight and almost impossible to fit behind the motherboard
Other Thoughts: accidentally broke some of the extension card retainer tabs trying to put in the graphics card. I would not recommend this case for a fist time builder

This review is from: NZXT Guardian 921 RB 921RB-001-BL Black SECC Steel, ABS Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Pros: Looks way better in person than pictures. Comes with 3 fans 2 with blue leds. Built in temp monitoring for HDD,CPU,SYS thats how they are labeled but you can place them wherever . I have my SYS sensor on my VRMs. Solid case came with everything working.
Cons: Cable management is terrible it's the reason I knocked an egg off. Had a hard time getting back panel back on as there is pretty much no space behind mobo tray.
PSU screws are silver wish they were black.
Other Thoughts: Ok so there are mixed pictures on here the case I received had all black wiring instead of that horrible multi colored mess shown in the pic which is fantastic especially having the window.
One picture also shows the side audio ports with pink and green colors and one pic shows them as black. The case I received had black audio ports which is great I planned on using a sharpie to make the other ports black my OCD wouldn't have been able to handle that as my case sits up on my desk and I would have constantly stared at them.
Someone stated the temp sensor didn't come with tape. My case did there are several little strips of clear tape for the sensors. Lots of extra hardware screws as well
This review is from: NZXT Guardian 921 RB 921RB-001-BL Black SECC Steel, ABS Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Pros: This case seemed like there was more complicated things than other cases. Not many holes to put your wires in the back, and the instruction manual was very confusing. For people who are just starting to build computers, this will be quite a challenge. But the overall look is amazing.
Cons: Better manual please!! Also, they give you these temp probes without a thermal tape... so I just ended up not using it, which is a bit of a waste.
This review is from: NZXT Guardian 921 RB 921RB-001-BL Black SECC Steel, ABS Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Pros: The case is a sleek beautiful design, the stock fan placements help keep my current build under 50C under work load, the built in thermal sensors are a blessing because I can monitor my temp to make sure it's not getting too hot during my weekend long gaming sessions. I would highly recommend this to anyone that wants a good case for under $75 without fear of quality because this one is top notch.
Cons: No cons so far the only thing I would make a note of is the front piece that opens up to the drive bays seems a bit cheap but beyond that I have no issue.

Pros: It's a well bult case i like the temperature probe monitoring system in but it is in celsius and i had trouble getting the e-sata working but all in all it's a gerat case.
This review is from: NZXT Guardian 921 RB 921RB-001-BL Black SECC Steel, ABS Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
