Today's review features the NZXT mid-tower chassis the Lexa S. NZXT has previously released two other cases under the Lexa label both of these were considered part of their Classic Series. However the Lexa S has made the leap into the Crafted Series of cases. The major differences between the two series is pretty basic; the Classic series is generally more of a subdued case, whereas the Crafted series has more of an eye-grabbing, gamer-orientated look.
The Lexa S is designed to provide enhanced airflow to keep your components nice and cool, and it can take up to five fans four of which are included. The Lexa S also comes with a few nice features like a smoked plexi side panel and a fan controller.
NZXT is as well as many other manufacturers seem to be pushing the dollar friendly chassis these days. That doesn't necessarily mean they are of impoverished design or inadequately built. So let's just jump into this case and see how it stacks up.

With the front and side fans as intakes and top/rear as exhausts, you would probably get much better airflow and better temperature readings!
