NZXT H630 chassis is a full-tower behemoth

NZXT is a well-known manufacturer that makes beautiful chassis for gamers and computer enthusiasts. They make the insanely popular Phantom series and their build quality is quickly catching up and matching that of Lian Li, albeit at a lower price with more colour options.

NZXT already has several full-tower designs like the Phantom 820, the Switch 810 and the regular, Alienware-like Phantom. The H630, though, is completely new.

The H630 is available in two colours – black and a brilliant shade of white. Its made out of a mixture of steel, plastic and aluminium and doesn’t feature vented side panels, instead lining them with foam to soundproof it. It accommodates anything and everything from a ITX board (that would look so puny) to XL-ATX (comparison here). Larger-size boards in the HPTX or SSI EEB standard wouldn’t fit here, sadly.

You can fit a surprising amount of stuff in the chassis. NZXT’s own promotional images show that one can stuff in two 360mm radiators with fans for a full water-cooling loop covering an Intel Core i7 LGA2011 processor and four AMD Radeon HD7970 graphics cards. You’d have to remove the hard drive bays entirely for that, but the fact that you can do it is impressive.

The H630 can accommodate two 5.25-inch devices in the DVD drive bays, up to eight 3.5-inch hard drives and a further two 2.5-inch drives behind the motherboard tray. You can put two 200mm fans in the front, two 200mm fans at the top, two 140mm fans at the bottom of the chassis and a final 140mm unit at the rear as an exhaust. Y0u can additionally mount two 140mm or smaller fans on the hard drive mounts to exhaust air from the drive bays and direct airflow through the chassis at specific angles.

To the bottom right of the chassis there’s also a small metal housing with the NZXT logo. Its unclear if that hosts more 2.5-inch drives or if it’s just there for support.

NZXT says the H630 will be available worldwide at the end of June 2013 and in the US it has a RRP of $149.99 or approximately R1,350.
