Guess you will be using the ssd slot above the NZXT logo right..? I did that too.. But I felt my power wire didn't feel comfortable..

I'm using a H100i and my devils canyon runs at 35 idle.. Slapped a AS5.. Waiting for the 200 hours to be complete.. Oh BTW I used the stick method.. Recommended on their website..

Hope you can see it from this picture http://shrani.najdi.si/?16/X0/1Sqt2ziG/unnamed.jpg

Hmm.. coz I'm struggling with the wire being bending too much.. so much that there's no space literally for the wires and they kinda bend almost completely 360 degrees.. I hope you understand what I mean..

Calling all H440 owners, do the screws that attach into the motherboard standoffs come with the case, or what? I don't appear to have any in my little white accessory box.

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it

they come with the case (in the accessories box). i believe they were the 3mm

washered screws (ODD screws, too) contact NZXT CS for replacements if not found.

As you can see I have almost no wire bending, does it happen with power cable or sata cable. If the cable is bending when you get the cable behind the mobo wall try using some zip locks to hold it in place (note that I have the normal not L shaped calbes). I hope that helps.

Yup, i found them. I had to check the manual a couple of times to make sure i was looking at the right thing :P

 

Edit: I'm torn between feeling stupid or not because it wasn't exactly clear... :)

haha.. That reminds me of Transformers where Optimus Prime says "Calling All Autobots..." ;)

happens with the power cable. it's not behind the case, it's near the SSD power point.. just behind the SSD..   :(

LTT forums does not endorse or advertise this owners club as a part of the LTT

forums so it can not be "Official".

Than I don't know what can you do sry

No problem man.. Just that I do not want the wires cramming and getting crushed.. The foam on the back panel is already deep damaged due to some stupid piece of plastic and it dug deep till the foam tore and scratched the metal.. FU nzxt for not giving adequate space on the back for wiring!!!

Hello everyone. I am considering to buy this H440 case and I have some questions. How is the situation with air cooling? Does that sound dampening thing affect it alot? Will removing it improve airflow? Can this case fit 240/280 radiators on both top and front? Can this be done in a pull/push configuration? Does anyone have an R9 280x and/or an FX 8320 in it? Now are the temps under load and while idle?

I'm pretty sure it can only fit 360 rads in front and top, and i know it would be tight with a push pull in the front. I'm not sure, but i don't think you'd get a push pull in the top at all.

push pull front is possible but you will lose out on the drive bays.. you will get one drive bay if you use a dual 120mm but going beyond that, you won't..

 

Top push pull is actually possible but the fans and rads must be thinner. 

 

The foam is not coming in any way to the air flow..

And the point of this useful comment was...? To troll? Because I think most H440 owners in this thread are happy with their junky crap...
