NZXT Releases New H Series of Cases, the H700i, H400i and H200i

TVwazhere

Not doing it for me somehow, that weird cable management bar on what looks like an s340 revision. Looking fwd to a GamersNexus review on if the polka dotted breathing holes on the side provide for better air flow and thus temps.

There's something I really dislike about the full tempered glass side panel on these cases....I also dislike when the fan is visible on the top, that's one of the things that I makes the H440 my favorite cases (and would make the H700i really nice if it wasn't for the odd side panel look). 

 

Also, the top of the H200i looks ridiculous:

I also really fail to see why so many case manufacturers refuse to make actually compact mITX cases.

Any early numbers out there on the H700i? I'm just wondering if NZXT have left more clearance between the top rad mounting and the case this time.

 

The top rad mount on the H440 (second version with better airflow) is just under a centimeter higher than the rest of the chassis leaving only about 5mm gap between rad and the soundproofing. Depending on ambient I get about 5-10c better cooling from my X62 when I take the top panel off my H440.

NZXT and Corsair need to stop trying to complicate the RGB market with their own software. Few, if any of their products work with stuff like Aura sync and Mystic lighting, they're trying to make it work through a case and that's just not going to happen. Having everything work through the motherboard is how a PC is built in the first place, it's just easier to have it go through a motherboard.

It's the trend, like TG and RGB. Solid minimalist front panels are in.

I like the solid front panel look, although I don't like the pure rectangle that these cases have. I prefer the H440's front panel because it isn't just a rectangle, but it comes to a design at the top where it meets the top panel.
