On Figure 11 you can see the place for installing the optional top 80-mm fan. As mentioned before, we didn’t like the 80-mm choice and the size of the holes.

NZXT Zero 2 has also a place for installing an optional 80-mm bottom fan. Even though this location has a washable dust filter, which is great to have, the same considerations regarding the top 80-mm are valid here: we think it would make more sense support for a 120-mm fan, not a 80-mm one, and also the holes on the mesh are too small, so it would be better to have bigger holes or just one big hole with an external add-on grill like the rear fans.

On Figure 13 you can see the front 120-mm fan located behind the front panel. See how this case comes with a washable dust filter for this fan. The problem, however, is that you need to remove the front panel and unscrew the dust filter to wash it. NZXT could have used a better system like the one used by Antec on their cases, where you can remove the dust filter even with the case closed by just pulling a handle.
