Introduction:


NZXT Whisper Enclosure

   We've seen some clever NZXT computer enclosures from time to time that were actually pretty nice from both their Classic and Crafted Series. Of their enclosure line, the VH staff presented the Tempest, Rogue, Lexa Blackline, and Zero. All of them offered pretty clever designs as well as some decent quality fabrication. If you haven't seen these cases before, they're worth taking a look at. I would have to say, some are quite unique and offer that special modified look enthusiasts really want.

Well, we have another enclosure that's not aimed at the enthusiast market per say. Not everyone is out for the flashiest case with the most LED fans and chrome to match. And, it doesn't have to have a window either. For these folks, NZXT recently released the Whisper computer enclosure.

The concept of the Whisper has a lot to do with its name. Since, enthusiast enclosures often offer a little bit of fan noise along with all the flash. The Whisper is aimed at eliminating the common rattles and buzzing associated with computer enclosures. This is good news for those who really don't like to hear their components "thinking" or functioning while the system is active.

As a matter of fact, this could be good news to audio-video users who don't like an audible system. There is a certain sense of refinement to computing when you can't hear your system at all, or hardly notice it there. Take a look and see if you the Whisper is something that can help silence those enormous graphics cards and case fans.

Features & Specifications:

WHISPER Classic Series

Full Steel Silent Tower

Raising the standard of silent computing.
Finally, a chassis that is designed for the enthusiast that combines noise dampening features with expandability and storage. Introducing the Whisper silent full tower chassis from NZXT, improving upon the successful of the NZXT HU-001 chassis, the Whisper is another step up from the Hush. Featured in a large size E-ATX Full Tower, the Whisper can support up to NINE hard drives and a total of SIX 5.25"; bays with ample space for large expansion cards. 10mm dampening foams, rubber grommets, and padded PSU holder are some of the major features in silence. The NZXT Whisper is the complete solution for the enthusiast who is not willing to sacrifice silence for performance.
