Anyone who owns the NZXT H510 Elite?

[TheRealPJ]

Hey! First post here

 

Im looking at upgrading my 6yr old pc and I haven't paid too much attention to case designs up until recently. Fell in love with the H510 Elite design but reading about how the GPU or CPU suffer. My plan is to get the X63 cooler and front mount. Does anyone who already owns this case have any regrets? 

 

The alternative im looking at is the Meshify C, my goal is to get a white/black theme going

Any advice would be awesome! Thanks!

Hey PJ, Welcome to the forums!

 

It all depends on what hardware you're trying to cool and how far you wanna push it, as well as what temperature you are comfortable operating at. Most people here are enthusiast, and so we will tell you to go for the option that gives you the best performance (in this case the Meshify C). 

 

What's your system build?

That makes sense Id be using the PC mainly for a workstation (Adobe suite, fl studio, pro tools etc), light gaming (Tomb raider, forza, fifa etc). Im also planning on waiting a few months before building for the next gen processors and gpus. but as a rough idea this would be an ideal build.

hewwo i would avoid getting the H510e just because of the thermals on it, it is good looking but the airflow is very sub par i would advice to get a Phanteks p300a/p400a NR600 Fractal Design meshify c or the  BeQuiet! 500dx

also there is a better deal on a power supply on ca PCPP its a revolution DF 650w its a good unit for the price
 

and lastly i would get another aio that performs a bit better than the X63 ie the (Arctic Liquid Freezer II or the  EVGA CLC)

Im not a big fan of the p300a, 500dx is now a contender lol, the other option I was considering was the corsair crystal 460x.

 

Ill take a look into that PSU recommendation!

 

I like the aesthetic of the x63, i wanted to keep that. This is gonna be a deskpiece so I want something that looks very appealing
