NZXT Nemesis and Nemesis Elite

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.
