Zalman Noise Prevention System

TNN(Totally No Noise) Computer Case

TNN Computer Enclosures are the world’s first environment-friendly noiseless computer

enclosures that operate without the use of a fan. TNN Computer Enclosures use the

aluminum enclosure itself as a heatsink. They are ideal for environments that require silence,

as well as for home theatre systems and multi-media systems.

Stable performance and noiseless liquid cooling system can both be achieved with the use of

Zalman’s noiseless power supply, noiseless case fan, Northbridge water block, and heat pipe

hard disk cooler.

TNN 300 TNN 500AF

Home Theater PC Enclosures

The HD160 is designed for ultra quiet home theatre

PC operation. It utilizes optimized ventilation and

anti-vibration reinforcements, making it ideal for

environments that require silence such as living

rooms, bedrooms, educational facilities, and offices.
