Hi, question is simple, wich case is worth buying. I like 760t and H440 for the looks. Air 540 is pretty much just for good airflow. I would take H440 but i'm worried of temperatures. How huge problem will it be if my room temperature it self is around 20-24 C at summer and will it improve aircooling alot on H440 if i remove front panel when i'm on gaming mode? Currendly my gtx970 never extended 54c in gaming.

 

System will be:

Asrock H97 pro 4

I5 4460

Gtx 970 strix

Seasonic 650w (gold)

16gb ram.

3x SSD-s and 1xTB hardrive.

 

Or do you recommend me to get 670t or it will be overkill?( i really like the smoked window look though and for future proof and size)

 

Prices in Estonia: NZXT H440 140€, Corsair Air 540 155€, Corsair 760t black 184€/white 195€.

H440 for silence and looks! (Isn't the H440 silent?)

Well the case matters (alot) in silence, but parts matter too (if he has a ton of noise coming from the parts no case can completely shut it out)

I meant, isn't it optimized to be quiet/silent?

Honestly i'm not really looking for silent, i'm totally okay with fan noise, i prefer having lower temps then silent.

I see the quality on air 540 and i think it's totally okay to pay 150 € for that but 670T is bit overpriced....(but looks good though)

With amazon having a sale on the 12th- might want to wait and see if that case goes down at all (recommend for all cases and see which you can get a good deal on)

H440 has kinda poor intake airflow, I would recommend an R5 instead which is a great case and is more silent but you probably prefer more colorful case so I would chose a 760T or a Phantek Enthoo Pro but the Air 540 is also good if you like compact cases it's all appearance preference really

Im not sure if the deal is only in the US, i thought it is also based out of the UK since amazon is also used there

Just checked , in US amazon, the prices are indeed lower as expected, but the weight on item will add up cause of shipping, and i end up still at the same price point. In UK amazon prices are even more higher+ shipping so yaaah :) but i guess i'll take 760t black version, cause it would look better, i would totally take air 540 but i don't have dat long desk sadly, or i just have to make seperate stand-off. This cube wont look pretty on the ground :D, and i also will feel sorry for him.

 

Ps: sorry for bad grammar :))
