[Hardware] Small and cool, this Zalman mATX case is going to impress you

[Noticias ALEJANDRO]

The first thing we must sit down to think about when we intend to renew our PC or build one from scratch is what type of box we want to use, since, based on its size, we will be limited to a specific type of board and the possibility of connecting more or fewer components.

 

 

If you are looking for a device compatible with Micro-ATX boards, we advise you to take a look at this new model from the manufacturer Zalman. We are talking about the Zalman Z30 Air box.

Zalman P30 Air: the PC case with the best cooling
This new PC case from the manufacturer Zalman is designed for Micro-ATX platforms and is designed to offer the best possible airflow, something it achieves by using perforated panels on both the right side and the front panel and at the bottom, designed to locate the power supply. The top and bottom have magnetic dust filters that prevent dirt from the environment from entering the interior.

The left panel, made of tempered glass, only covers access to the PC, not to the power supply since it is independent, while the right panel does allow access to the entire equipment. The tray on which we must anchor the box has cutouts to direct the connections towards the back to help hide the cable distribution. It is not the same result as the new ASUS boxes designed to reduce the number of cables, but it is appreciated that this type of design is included.

 

 

Although it is designed for Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards, inside we have enough space to install a graphics card up to 392 mm long. The maximum height of the CPU cooler that we can install is 181 mm and the space reserved for the power supply is 226 mm long.

As we can see, despite a case for smaller boards than ATX, it has enough space to create the PC we want. At the top we find a headphone jack connection along with a USB 3.0 Type A port and a USB-C port.

The Zalman P30 Air case includes 3 140mm ARGB fans, two located on the front and one on the back of the tower. Optionally, we can install radiators at the top of 280/360 mm and one more at the rear of 120/140 mm.
