Outdated Product
Zalman's N5 line of cases are quite advanced ATX models, mainly designed for building high-performance gaming PCs. The MF modification differs from its counterparts in the series by a front panel made of metal grille and a wide range of pre-installed RGB fans. So, on the front panel of this model there are three 120 mm stock fans at once, there are similar turntables at the back. This case boasts the ability to organize highly efficient air cooling. The control panel has a speed controller for the bladed impellers. Additionally, the model has the ability to adjust the brightness of the RGB backlight. Case Zalman N5 MF belongs to the middle price category. To reduce the cost of the model, 3 mm acrylic was used as a viewing side window. The rest of the gaming case demonstrates excellent perf...ormance. Ventilation channels on the front and top have removable dust protection. The ventilation channel on the bottom also has protection, but a metal mesh with a small cell acts as a filter from below. A motherboard of any of the following formats is placed on the pallet: ATX, MicroATX, Mini-ITX. Two 3.5″ HDD slots and four 2.5″ SSD pads are allocated for memory drives. There is also one USB 3.0 connector and two USB 2.0 ports. Nearby are the mini-Jack sockets (headphones and microphone).

Model overview based on user reviews  
The Zalman N5 MF is a spacious and well-cooled computer case, ideal for building high-performance gaming PCs. It features a good cooling system with the option to install additional fans, making it a solid choice for maintaining optimal temperatures. Users appreciate the price-to-quality ratio, noting it as a great option for first-time builders. However, some have mentioned that the front mesh panel collects dust and the acrylic side panel scratches easily. The case offers less dust and more air circulation, but there are minor concerns about the space for cable management and the attachment of the viewing window. Overall, the Zalman N5 MF is a great value for its price, despite some minor drawbacks.

Zalman's N5 line of cases includes fairly advanced ATX models, mainly designed for building high-performance gaming PCs that require powerful cooling. So, three stock turntables with a diameter of 120 mm are already pre-installed on the front panel of the case, another one is hidden at the back. The total number of coolers can reach up to 8 pcs. According to the current fashion, the 3 front coolers are in the most visible place under the transparent panel and when the backlight is on, they create the illusion of large luminous rings.

Since the case belongs to the middle price category, in order to save money, the manufacturer used 3 mm acrylic instead of ordinary glass for the viewing window on the side. Otherwise, the build quality and thoughtfulness of the Zalman N5 MF internals deserve a solid five. The black-painted metal looks expensive and strong, nothing backlashes or dangles, the ventilation channels in front and on top are equipped with removable dust nets. It is convenient that the impeller speed controls were moved to the main control panel, and did not hide it in a hard-to-reach place behind the case.

Other pluses of the model include a well-thought-out layout, which is great to untie your hands at the beginning of the assembly process. A motherboard of any popular format (ATX, MicroATX, Mini-ITX) is placed on the pallet, the power supply is hidden in the lower compartment, 6 internal compartments are allocated for drives, and cables can be hidden inside the case using a hidden pulling system. Only the narrowed holes of some cables can bring minor inconvenience. You will have to tinker a little to properly "pack" the power cables for the same processor.
