Nox Vulkan: Packaging and exterior

Nox presents its Nox Vulkan chassis in a hard, shock-resistant cardboard box when moving.

Perfectly protected with thick polystyrene and a plastic cover to prevent dust from entering.

Being completely black, the box looks great. Its structure is ATX Semitower with dimensions of 18 cm (width) x 41.5 cm (height) x 39.5 cm (depth) and a weight of up to 3kg.

Packed with state-of-the-art connections: one USB 3.0 connection, two USB 2.0 connections, audio input and output, and finally a power button and a reset button.

Built with its structure with SPCC alloy and an ABS plastic front panel and Metal Mesh grilles for the entry of fresh air.

With a total of 3 external 5.25 ″ bays and one of 2.5 ″ for a card reader or the classic floppy drives.

On the left side its structure stands out a little and allows us to install up to two 12 and 14 cm fans to cool the processor and graphics card. We can configure them entering or leaving air.

The right side also presents its structure outside. The reason is to help us organize the wiring.

At the back we see that the compartment of the power supply is located at the top.

Possibility of installing an 80mm rear fan.

And it is compatible with ATX and microATX motherboards with a maximum of seven expansion slots.

Nox Vulkan: Interior

Its interior is completely painted black. Its presence is very minimalist.

Here we can see the upper area where we install the power supply and the small hole to install the heatsink. We recommend installing it on the motherboard first.

The installation of the bays is the classic with screw. We have a total of 4 bays 5.25 ″

Here we see the USB 3.0 connection and the hardware that it includes for the installation of hard drives, motherboard and optical drives.

conclusion

The NOX VUlkan is a box compatible with ATX motherboards, it has an elegant and striking design. Its size of 180 (width) x 415 (height) x 395 (depth) mm and 3kg indicates that it is a Semitower tower. Made inside SPCC steel, and with premium ABS plastic and grids for greater breathing "Metal mesh", which is usually seen higher range boxes.

Its cooling falls within the guidelines of optimal cooling: Front Fan (120mm included with red led) - Rear (80mm not included) and Side (two 120mm not included) for graphics cards. We would have liked it to include at least one rear fan for good efficient airflow from the start.

WE RECOMMEND YOU Blaze X2 Project plays in another league

We believe this tower is ideal for the assembly of any computer.The ideal configuration for this box would be an AMD A10-6700 / A10-5800k APU processor and an ATI 7790 since they can offer us a space, a collected system and the best performance of the market at a spectacular price. Our tests have been carried out with the perfect equipment for use: Inte i3-2100, micro atx H77 motherboard and 16 gb of RAM. The equipment has always been operating at 37ºC at rest and at full performance at 62ºC. This shows the efficiency of cooling and the importance of a rear fan.

We have missed a no screw system in the internal / external bays of the Nox Vulkan. That avoids the use of the screwdriver and possible vibrations.

In short, if we are looking for an ideal box for our home, office or server equipment, use a fluorescent marker to point to the NOX Vulkan, the box with the best price / quality on the market.

Currently in online stores for an unbeatable price of € 29.
