It's exactly the same as the original Zero(and I own the original.). All they did was remove the front polished steel bezel and replaced is with a painted bezel, re-designed the front bezel LED's, removed the polished steel interior and replaced it with the cheaper gray painted one, and removed the PSU bar. Then just gave it a cheaper price tag.
They should of just removed all the annoying crap on it like:
- remove the silly 4x 120MM fan side panel; replace with it with a window, regular side panel, or a single 250mm fan.
- remove the bottom mounted 80mm fan and it's filter; it's useless.
- replace the fixed hard drive cage with a removable one.
- remove the stupid 80mm fan blowhole; it's unusable if you choose to use a large PSU or a 92mm fan with 80mm frame.
- Replace the included PSU with the sentry; works very well with the smoked glass on top.
- Bore some holes for a easy watercooling project (there's space next the the top 120mm exhaust fan) and line them with rubber so it isn't sharp.
- Re-loacte the front audio/usb/firewire again (on the original it's on the bottom-side right) so it's either on top-side on the left or top-side on the right.
- Then polish the interior again
- Lastly, give it a $100-$150 price tag and then call it "Zero 2".
This "New" case is more like "Zero 1.25". Nothing's changed hardly.
