I can't decide what case to get, so help me will ya?

I don't "need" a big case so i'm ok with a mid-tower.

I've been looking at a NZXT H440 and a R4 but The R4 seems kinda ugly to me from the outside and on the H440 your PSU isin't visible which i'm not very keen about, also there's a "plate" which the 3.5" and 2.5" trays lock to and you don't see behind it. And you can't remove it, if you could ..i'd get that but you can't. I also fancy rear 140 mil. fans :3.

So help mee, thanks.

NZXT H440! 

 

It looks sweet, and if you really don't like the cover you can do a bit of modding to take it out. But, both are awesome cases.

Get the H440. Every other person on this forum has an R4. :ph34r:

Do you have an R4? I don't, so if you don't then it isn't every other person.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

So which cover do you meen, the psu one or the other one. And i'm unsure how would i go about removing either of them and how would it look after the cover removed. But i do like the case, NZXT are actually coming up with more colours for the H440. :)

I meant the PSU cover. Also, why do you even not like the PSU cover?

Do you have an R4? I don't, so if you don't then it isn't every other person.

 

I actually do and the build quality is no where near on par as the case it replaced. It has great internals, but that's all it really has going for it.

Which case did it replace?

 A Lian Li PCV354A - That case was pretty and a solid chassis, but it was held with tiny screws and the internals were terrible.

 

The r4 is actually a decent case, I was just spoiled on the quality of a Lian Li case before it. Also the every other person comment was meant to be lighthearted cause you do see a lot of those on LTT. :P

 

I kinda want a TJ08-EW as my next chassis, but I dunno what I really want yet. The H440 for me personally is too huge for my matx board, it'd look out of place so bad.

I know. I have a CM Storm Trooper. Great case.

That's one of the few modern CM cases I like. Wish the storm line made a stylish matx case.

Both are great cases. I almost bought the h440 recently but decided to go with something else. Just look at the specs, and decide if it will work for you. After that choose whichever looks best.
