H510 vs mechify c

[MrBigBrainThe2nd]

Idk what to get. 
 

I really really really like the h510 black. But if it’s just a real bad choice I’ll get the meshify c

Meshify C 1000000%, especially if you're air cooling.

The h510 is reminiscent of a microwave- You could (figuratively) nuke your components. I would highly recommend the meshify c- it generally has much better airflow and it'll keep your components cooler in most to all cases, but it depends on your cooling and components.

I have a friend with an H510 case that I helped him build his PC in. The system runs hot, and the case wasn't assembled very well. NZXT has some great engineers for their cases so the case is easy to build in, but they tend to cheap out on the materials. 2 standoffs ended up stripping while assembling the system, and I wasn't applying much force. Get the Meshify C, it's a pretty easy case to build in and it has good airflow. If you want to save some money though, you can always get a Phanteks P400a

or a p360a/metallic gear neo air/mx330g air

The poor airflow qualities of the H510 are somewhat exaggerated, you're not likely to have much a problem with a middle-of-the-road system, but the Meshify C is a lot better.

 

Of note is that the Meshify C is about to be replaced by the Meshify 2 Compact.

Is there anything that looks as good as the h510 but has good air quality

depends on your location.

 

pahteks p300a looks good and is good.

How do you define "good looking?"
Td500 mesh maybe, p400a digital/p360a digital, or the metallic gear neo air/cougar mx330 g air

It's impossible to use "looks good" in objective terms as different designs appeal to different people. 

 

Cases with flat-ish front panels 

Lian Li 215

Silverstone Fara R1

Lain Li Lancool2 Mesh

Corsair 4000D

be quiet! Pure base 500DX

Second this.

 

Depends massively on your specs, future ambitions and use case @MrBigBrainThe2nd.

Check out https://caseend.com/ to see a lot of not so well know itx matx cases. 

[thrasher_565]

there's the inwin case and roswell cases. if you want tempered glass there's the lian li 011 and antec Cristal 120.

having intake from the bottom will give good air flow and still have a solid front.
