Personal opinion:
This is one of my favorite "all aluminum" cases of all time. It's a very high quality, very THICK aluminum mid tower case that carries a very professional, yet unique design. I'll briefly go over a few of my favorite features about this case. *I have no actual hands on experience with this case nor do I pretend that I do, take my opinions with a grain of salt*
This case boasts an insane 3mm thick aluminum frame as well as a 2mm thick aluminum construction! Very strong and sturdy! In fact, this case can support weight up to 300lbs! So fear not all you "extra large" gamers out there. When you arrive late for you lan party and all the seats are taken? Take a seat on your Nzxt Adamas! *not recommended, as you would have one SORE butt at the end of the day* ;-)
My next favorite feature is the simple, yet unique design. This case is a very simple, no window, no marketing campaign (think Zalman), all black brushed aluminum design with one simple and very well placed "Nzxt" Logo in the far top left corner of the front bezel. So what makes this case so special? I'll tell you what, this entire case from the inside out, acts like one huge heatsink! As you can plainly see for yourself, just about every section where a heat source would be, the aluminum on that section has been "ribbed" or "finned" like a heatsink to help "dissipate" heat. Even if this feature doesn't work as well as it's intended too, it's still a pretty "cool" looking feature if you ask me!
The only real complaints that I have heard about this case are the pci slot covers and the somewhat "cramped" space on the inside of the case. Although this case looks friggen ginormous, it truly is a mid tower on the inside. So for those of you out there where lots of space is must, you might want to look elsewhere. But hey, this is a modders forum! We don't look elsewhere, we look for our DREMELS! Psh, will not fit my ass. Ever heard the term "Does not compute"? :D
Thats it peeps, another awesomely fantastic deal of superb greatness from our truly beloved Newegg.com! All hail Newegg! :)
