Our verdict

A simple, steel mid tower for a budget office or gaming build that still wants an optical drive bay. Cooling starts with one fan, and some ATX boards with side-facing SATA ports will not fit.

Overview

Not a glass showcase case, the Zalman tower is a powder coated steel box with mesh front and side panels and an external bay for an optical drive. A rear fan comes fitted, with room for more fans including on the side panel.

Room for full ATX boards, an optical drive and four drives covers a classic home or office build. One included fan is thin cooling for a hot gaming system, and the board caveat rules out some ATX layouts.

Who it's for

Budget builders and office machines with modest heat output get a straightforward steel case. High-end gaming rigs with hot graphics cards need more airflow out of the box.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • External bay for optical drive
  • Fits three board sizes
  • Mesh front and side panels
  • Steel build with powder coat
Cons
  • Only one fan included
  • No side-facing SATA ATX boards
  • Single USB 3.0 port
  • GPU length not listed

Performance notes

Airflow depends on how many fans you add, since only the rear exhaust is fitted and the mesh panels let air in passively. Adding front intake and the side fan makes a clear difference for gaming cards. Cable routing room is not described, so tidy builds take planning.
