to be honest, the H440 while being a ATX case is quite small for it's formfactor - same with the air 540.

 

tbh I'd look at one of Corsair's offerings.

• NCASE M1 • i5-9600k • GTX 1080 FE • Z370N-WIFI • SF600 • NH-U9S • LPX 32GB • 960EVO •

I'm a self-identifying Corsair & Nvidia Fanboy; Get over it.

The Evolv is about the size of an ATX case. Dimensions (mm, W x H x D)

H440: 220 x 510 x 475.3

Evolv: 230 x 450 x 400

HardwareCanucks have a video on it, showing how large it is for the mATX form factor. Think of it as almost like the 900D of mATX.

 

Also, the 450D is cheap crap compared to the Evolv.

Was looking for a finished Evolv build on the internet. Found this, looks a lot like your build.

 I think top should have enough space for your water cooling.. Not sure though.

More than that. The entire external of the Evolv is 1/8" / 3mm thick aluminium. That's unheard of. Also the top/front/side panels are toolless for good measure.

I would certainly pic the Evolv over the 240. . . Evolv's only enemy is within it's own family, the Mini XL. . . Or XL Mini? . . . either way I'm still waiting to see how that fairs before deciding.
