Disposable PCI covers, flimsy HDD trays, LED fan at front cannot be seen
The styling on a computer chassis is especially subjective and fits in with a system builders preference and requirements. Although not excessively gaudy, the Zalman Z11 Neo steps over in the arena of the gamer with a bulky external design and LED lightin...
The Z11 Neo offers exceptional performance value and overall quality for a reasonable price, but break-away slot covers are an insult to both the cases's overall quality and target market. Rather than recommend it as-delivered, we'll approve it for an...
In its price range the body looks very good, it has a very interesting appearance, functionality and an interesting cooling system with the ability to build a good life-support system. Yes indeed it seems to be true, the case is good, and the thin steel ~...

It hard to find a good case for a reasonable price. Z11 NEO retails for about 100$ USD and holds its value as it offers basic yet convenient features in the mid size tower case. For most of the enthusiasts its all about looks and potentials of the case. W...
Excellent price, Great construction quality, Very good engineering, Five fans included out of the box, Two metal 5.25 to 3.5" hard drive trays included, Removable HDD cages, Can easily hold 240 mm radiator setup, Dust filters on all intake areas, Full set
5.25 bay disturbs look and feel of case when open, Piano finish on small parts tray, Colorful case cable leads, Bottom fan mount a bit useless, Side window with a bit too much tint
The Zalman Z11 NEO sells for around 70 euro incl. taxes, while US readers will find it for 75 US dollars excl. taxes. Excellent price Great construction quality Very good engineering Five fans included out of the box Two metal 5.25 to 3.5" hard drive tray...

The Z11 Neo is a much needed refresh to the Z11 lineup from Zalman. The Z11 was getting long in the tooth since it was originally launched in March 2012 and didn't have an internal USB 3.0 header, which was a major issue for many consumers. While keeping ...
Aesthetically, the Zalman Z11 Neo features a blend of eclectic elements that gives it a bold look. The way they've merged both angular and rounded contours has a strange elegance about it, as does the raised/beveled side window. On the otherhand, the coin...
Solid classy good looks, Very well thought out, Great price point, Rubber feet and rubber tray slides, Very quiet case, Steel is stronger than most sub 100 dollar cases
Struts get in the way of the build, Knock-out PCI slots are not replaceable, Molex connection on front fan is not motherboard friendly, Power supply bottom filter could be problematic, Reset button could break replacing the top, if not aware of the issue
Okay so the Zalman Z11 NEO is not my LQ-1000 Z machine of my dreams but I must admit I really liked the case and I overlooked a lot of the little quirks that I found with the case. Over all it is quiet and built stronger than most of the Sub 100 dollar ca...
Five included fans, including two with LEDs, Top mounts dedicated to 240mm water cooler, Front/bottom dust filters, Removable HDD bays, Sleek, attractive design.
Flimsy HDD trays, No top filter, Limited front intakes.
The Z11 Neo is not simply a rebranded Z11 Plus. It's a new take on an old design that has quite a few changes. Unfortunately, not all of them are good. My second ever case was a Zalman Z11 Plus, and that case had its faults to be sure. This new Z11 series...
