The Nexus Prominent R quiet case is a premium chassis for a silent computer. With its toolless installation features it is a breeze to install your components or change your set-up. The sleek professional look and materials make the case fit in setting. A black mesh front and top give the Prominent R a distinguished look. Nexus even included a SATA dock for easy file transfer to one of your internal drives. And, the all black interior is just great looking.
Nexus pre-installed their silent case fans in the Prominent R (these silent case fans are our top recommendation in quiet case fans here at Endpcnoise.com). One 120mm fan is fitted on the rear for air outtake and a 120mm is fitted in the front as air intake. Some isolating padding where the PSU is placed to prevent resonance. The Nexus Prominent R case features ventilation holes (and room for a fan) in the bottom of the case, as well as thick rubber feet which keep the Prominent R elevated from the floor to make a smooth airflow possible and eliminate resonance.
The Nexus Prominent R case includes a SATA dock on top of the case, which can be useful for easy file transfer. You no longer need to open your case to plug in a hard drive for file transfer.
Practically all components can be mounted inside the case without tools. PCI-lots and Optical drives are fixed with toolless solutions.
The Nexus Prominent R HDD trays are very convenient. You just need to squeeze the tray to be able to pull out the hard disk or place it back. All Prominent R HDD trays are fitted with rubber to reduce resonance and vibration. With the supplied screws you can also mount any 2.5" or SSD drive into the quiet hard drive trays.
Nexus has fixed some nice padding on the areas where the power supply normally would hit the chassis. They have attached some patches on the bottom and side of the case and a little frame around the PSU opening at the back of the case. These 'bumpers' are made of soft foam/rubber-like materials and absorb vibration caused by the PSU and prevents this resonance to be transmitted to the chassis. To create a better mounting there is a velcro strap to make sure the PSU is firmly installed.
