Size Comparison

In our past reviews we used a 2L coke bottle to give you an idea of the size of the case, but the simple pixel diagram seems to be doing a better job at that. In the overview below you can find the Revoltec Zirconium compared to other mid-sized tower cases we have already tested.

The RT-101 is similar in size to the NZXT Adamas, it’s definitely a mid-size case as it’s dwarfed by the larger tower cases from Coolermaster and Silverstone.

Outside

The RT-101 features a side panel with air duct installed, in the photo below you can see that this air duct is situated over the CPU cooler area of the mainboard.

The side panels are easily removable as they are fixed in place by thumbscrews.

The front panel is made from hard plastic, with grill texture on the sides.

The optical drives are hidden by use of this flip down 5.25” bay covers of which are two.
