Zalman Z11 Plus vs Z12 plus?

samuel
Go to solution Solved by samuel,

Yea i picked up the adapter for like 3 bucks. It's a pretty solid built case for the price. I think you will like it.

The fans that come it are pretty quiet also. ( 5 in total )

Z11 it is! :D

Wich one should I buy? I'm planning a new rig when haswell comes out! price point in my country in aprox $100 for each case...(Romania). I know, not the best country to live  in.. :)

Update: Bought the Z11 nonplus along with Enermax 140mm TB Apollish red LED. Looks awesome as front intake fan! B)

Cases are up to the personal preference of the buyer, just list the features next to each other, and decide from that :)

absolutely the z11. It looks so freakin awesome and unique. I cant think of any other case that looks similar. The z12 however, looks kind of generic and similar to most cases.

 

And just for the convenience of any one else who sees this thread, here's a picture of them both.

z12 - z11

I assume OP is mostly concerned with aesthetics because he hasn't mentioned any certain requirements from the cases.

I won a Z11 plus a few months ago and it's a pretty nice case for a basic build.

Looks even better in person.
