It can only fit mini-ITX and micro-ATX motherboards inside

The new Zalman case in the pictures I included in the gallery might be misleading, possibly making the thing look bigger than it actually is.

This, I've found, often happens when it comes to such things. So I'll dispel any confusion: the case is a tower model, but not a big one.

Instead, the ZM-T3-500LE is a mini-tower with space for mini-ITX or micro-ATX motherboards, nothing larger.

There's still room for a full-height video card though, and the 500W PSU (included with the case) has enough cables for a good single-GPU board.

All in all, the new enclosure measures 189 mm x 364 mm x 427.5 mm / 7.44 x 14.33 x 16.83 inches and can fit one 5.25-inch bay, two 3.5-inch bays / three 2.5-inch bays and a bunch of fans.

Sales of the Zalman ZM-T3-500LE will start tomorrow, December 14, for ¥6,980 / $67 / €48.73.
