NZXT products have rarely disappointed us at Dragonsteelmods and today’s PC case continues this pleasant trend. The Guardian 921 is a gaming chassis designed with form and function in mind while maintaining a budget price. Eschewing the boxy beige box shape, the Guardian 921 features numerous curves and angle to make the case stand out.

The Guardian 921 is a steel case in a mid tower configuration. If you are looking for a light aluminum case to carry to LAN parties, this is not the one for you. But if your goal is to have a rugged sexy looking gaming PC then the Guardian 921 fits the bill.

Peripherals are easily accessible via a side panel which includes E-SATA, Intel HD audio output/input, and two USB connections. NZXT keeps things cool with three 120 mm fans and allows for plenty of room for expansion with nine drive bays.

So let’s take a closer look at the Guardian 921 and see how this gaming PC case performs.
