Now that I see it being an obvious nzxt fanboy, I am hurt by the lack of branding. How am I going to know who makes this case? It needs some sort of branding all over it. Something that is really obvious and screams "NZXT"

 

0/10

 

 

For those that don't understand the logos all over it, it's most likely a play on the camouflage you see on unreleased cars while they are being tested. Though nothing about that case reminds me of a Ferrari.

 

If you actually watch the video through, Luke mentions that the logos are unique to this case, as it is a promotional prototype (the interior of this case is apparently not the final design, for example). These logos won't be on the retail units.

 

That said, its a stupid marketing gimmick that distracts from the case as a whole. I'll bet it may look a lot better without the logo crapped all over it like bird poo.

I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure those NZXT logos are there for a sort of camouflage look auto manufacturers do while testing their prototypes. They're just buying into the whole 'top secret prototype' shenanigans.

Yeah, they obviously tried to sell this whole car thing hard but nothing about that case reminds me of a car other than the camo lol

I think they bended it too much making it look bad. I think a more angular design might be better
