here is an idea........dont buy them

 

I refuse to spend full price for $15 fans, so the thought had never and hopefully will never cross my mind.

These cable channels isn't going to work too well. Some are too narrow for the main ATX plug and none of them have anchor points for zip ties or a cover, to prevent the cables from falling out.

Theyre using Velcro straps in between each "router", thats how theyre getting away with no zip tie punch outs. 24 pin will be interesting, as regular ones are round, and custom cables might not entirely fit

Then it defeats the purpose of those cable channels.

meh... cable channels are interesting but i wonder how useful they really are.

The old ones were useful, and these dont look any worse. I like the design, just not the price

[Bananasplit_00]

meh, its not bad i guess. price is way to high for me to even bother looking at it and the look is totaly wrong for my likeing anyway.

It's the integrated triple AER fans and fan controller (hue+) that drives the price up :'( 

This has the Hue+ built in? Like it comes with the RGB strips or no? If not can I use my Corsair RGB strips with it?

Each case comes build-ready with pre-installed RGB lighting and pre-wired Aer F fans*, saving the cost and hassle of adding RGB and fan controllers.

Yes, it comes with the "Hue+" (I use quotes because they dont call it that but thats essentially what it does from what they describe) fan and lighting controller, but it doesnt come with the light strips, and you cannot use any other LED strip AFAIK, because the NZXT strips are individually addressable LED's

I love the look of my h440, I wish they'd update the case with better airflow.

[mrchow19910319]

NZXt is gonna become the next corsair...

 

[SuperShires]

They better sell a non-RGB all black H400i without them fans and fan controller...

 

Also can anyone tell if you could squeeze 2 240mm rads in there? looks like there is space.

[thorsong]

Disappointing. I was hoping to see an updated H440, maybe even just the Elite treatment to the H440. None of those have enough hard drive slots for me. My desktop is also my media server and that part runs off of a RAID 5. 

[Exprima]

The H400i is almost perfect. I just wish the top vents had mounting strips instead of mounting holes. It's a little thing but it bothers me.

[Ryujin2003]

I really do like it. Very sleek and clean. However, being a current Phantom owner, I have a hard time with a case that is still just a rectangle. Add some accents and sex appeal. It looks the same as every other case out there.

[Rostum]

Damn, just got a s340 Elite and have yet to build in it. I still really like the s340 Elite, but this looks nice and slick as well. Not sure how keen I am on the built-in RGB, unless you can reduce the brightness of the LEDs.

[dizmo]

Not bad but boy are they expensive compared to the old models. Was interested in the ITX case until I saw the measurements and price. For only $70 more I can get a Caselabs BH4 that's only slightly wider, but shorter in height and depth...and supports an mATX motherboard.

Is there any pics of the h200i, always hyped for smaller form factors 

Loads on their site now, in case you haven't seen them. 

[Mooshi]

Sorry, Christmas lights + choked intake have nothing over the Meshify C for cases in that layout.

[DELTAprime]

Well I was hoping for an updated H440 with tempered glass, but the H700i will do nicely instead. Only thing is I probably won't pick one up for a while because Australian PC retailers have a bad habit of price gouging at the launch of a new product and I don't think this case is worth more than the $300's that 200 Euros translates into.

[Armakar]

So it's basically just an s340 elite with 1 extra fan and some RGb... for like $100 more

 

wow, so great, changing my build from the Evolv ATX Glass now.

[ttam]

Good ole tech forums. Something is new and a bit pricey so it's the end of the world.

 

I'm buying the all black one for my next personal build, so I can black everything out.

You should be able to as judging from this photo both would fit simultaneously

I wouldnt have expected any more than 3 HDD bays with the way the market is trending. Theyre not building modular systems like Cooler Master and Phanteks

Case modding anyone? ;D

Again, market trends are demanding more minimalistic exteriors with less gamery aesthetics (minus RGB, RGB is the only gamery style alive and well)

The minimalistic thing is boring. There reason I love PC is the ability to add personality. Make the PC case an extension of yourself. As of current, Cougar had three only exciting case IMO. But it's just a tad too expensive. I guess I'll have to learn fabrication and 3d printing to mid my own boring minimalistic case in the future.

Looks like these are in stock now on NZXTs web site.

Actually, I think they did a silent revision of the H440 with better airflow. It wasn't a big difference and not really hugely advertised but it was mentioned they changed it up a bit.
