Hi there! 

As the topic says, i need help choosing a Case.

I'm looking for:

 

  • Miditower
     
  • Fan Control
     
  • Window
     
  • Silent if possible,  (i know this is hard to find with a case that has a window)

 

 

I probably wont have more than 1 SSD and 1 HDD

 

 

 

Thanks!

Redliquid~

All the comments go like R4 X H440 LMAO.

h440 has no 5.25 inch bays, so if its a 5.25 inch fan controller then no. also the h440 soesnt have a built in fan controller(it has a hub though) most mother boards can control fan speeds though.

its between r4 and h440, go with whichever you like best.

H440 is plastic, but does have pretty colours now.

R4 (as much as i hate that case) is metal.

Whichever fits.
