Nexus Prominent R

NEXUS Prominent R Silent ATX Mid Tower

When it comes to cases there are many choices. Finding the right case for a system, and environment, is a matter of looking at what they system will be used for, and what is required for the environment it will be used in. For example, a high end, overclocked gaming system would want a case with massive airflow, and since the sound system would overpower the fans as far as noise goes, sound proofing would not be an issue. On the other hand if the system is used in say, a music studio, or other environment where low noise levels are a necessity, then the user would want a case that reduces noise levels. But as we all know, it would also have to keep the components of the system cool. Enter the NEXUS Prominent R, a case that includes many features the modern system can take advantage of, as well as built in sound absorption panels. Does it make a real difference? Can it still keep a system cool enough? Are the features what consumers are looking for? Over the next few pages we will find the answers to these questions and more. The Prominent R comes in a rather ordinary looking box, though our sample had been abused quite thoroughly during shipping.
