A video tour of NZXT's case factory

It's loud inside factories. Obvious, right? Sure—but when you don't work in manufacturing, it's easy to forgot how big, loud, and incredible the manufacturing equipment that builds our everyday objects truly is. Inside NZXT's PC case factory, I got to see rows of huge hydraulic presses slamming down again and again, mashing cases into shape. And now you can too, thanks to our video tour!

Our gallery of NZXT's case factory is full of details on the manufacturing process we couldn't fit into a short video, so check it out if you want to know more.

Wes has been covering games and hardware for more than 10 years, first at tech sites like The Wirecutter and Tested before joining the PC Gamer team in 2014. Wes plays a little bit of everything, but he'll always jump at the chance to cover emulation and Japanese games.

When he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike. With a focus on writing and editing features, he seeks out personal stories and in-depth histories from the corners of PC gaming and its niche communities. 50% pizza by volume (deep dish, to be specific).
