Internal Design of Nemesis Steel Model
Since the internal layouts of each case are completely different, we will start off by examining the steel model to explain fully the features of each case.
Nemesis
It is obvious when we open the steel model Nemesis that except for the aluminum armor plate on the bezel, the structure is made completely of steel. At the front of the case, we see the drive bays, five 5-1/2" bays as we saw from the bezel, and a total of five 3-1/2" bays, one of those being external. Tool-less mounting devices have been implemented in this model and seem to be the exact locking mechanisms that NZXT had implemented in the Guardian. They are purple in color and extend over all five 5-1/4" bays and two out of the five 3-1/2" bays. The bottom three bays reserved for HDDs use drive rails that are also included with the package.
Nemesis
Moving to the back of the case, we see that NZXT has also decided to implement rotating clips on the expansion slots like we saw in the Guardian as well as the Centurion 5 from CoolerMaster.
Nemesis
The power supply mounting area is easily accessible and will accommodate a power supply of any size. There is a strong platform on which a heavy unit can sit for added support and reduced stress on the case's structure.

The inside is really ugly too. I'd take a $20 Dragon over one of those anyday.Gatak - Saturday, February 5, 2005 - link
Hey, be a little nicer to Anand and the other reviewers!They do a good job and procude good quality reviews, and here you come and say it is crap. =(
Sure, many readers (including me) asked for reviews of nicer, more elegant cases. But the truth may be that it may not be so easy to find. And those that do exist, well, it might not be possible to get review samples.
Have respect!

seriously, who buys this crap. I'd rather have a hp/compaq/dell case than this.Cygni - Saturday, February 5, 2005 - link
"It's often tougher to get the more normal looking cases to review"Thats what i was thinking... if the case mft's want to move the more expensive ugly gimicky cases, thats what they will send out, im guessing. Although I agree, a watercooling review/round-up would be pretty interesting.

This is the last one, I put an end to that today. This is something I should've done a while ago but it's better late than never.It's often tougher to get the more normal looking cases to review, but I'd rather review nothing than do any more of these.
Take care,
Anand
