NZXT Lexa Blackline – Internals

Taking off the side panel with the window reveals the internal layout of the NZXT Lexa Backline.

It’s a fairly standard layout with little out of the ordinary. In terms of drive bays there are a total of four 5.25” bays as well as a couple 3.5” ones and room for five hard drive disks. All of the drive bays use a rail-mounting mechanism to make installation completely screw less.

In regards to the main chamber, it is fairly plain with lots of different mounting holes to support lots of different types of motherboard.

Overall there are four pre-installed fans: the three 120mm fans which are positioned at the front, rear and on the window of the side panel. Also, there is another 80mm at the top of the enclosure to help expel hot air and room for another to be installed at the base if the user so wishes. Unfortunately, none of the fans seem to have any dampening devices and so I assume that any vibrations will be passed straight onto the case which could result in a higher noise output.

The fans are marketed as being silent when rotating at 1200RPM and supposedly giving at a mere 23dBA. The fans, other than cooling, have another function which is to provide the lighting for the case through the coloured LEDs in them – either red or blue. I will be reviewing the red version.
