4000D Airflow vs H5 Flow: Which Case?

[Rob_dog]

So I have stumbled upon 2 cases: the Corsair 4000D Airflow and the H5 Flow. They are both excellent, but which one should I get? I can't decide. Which is better?
 

Specs:

RTX 4080

5800X
280mm radiator (top mounted for 4000D, front mounted on H5)

Which 4080 specifically?

I would get the cc560 as it has a top 280 rad mount and 4 included fans

the final page of a 7 page review on the 4000D

it speaks volumes as to how well the case was received when released

Gaming X Trio 4080.

 

I'm going to put in different fans anyway, so whatever is preinstalled isn't going to matter that much.

I would get the deepcool cc560 then and top mount the rad Deepcool CC560 ATX Mid Tower Case (R-CC560-BKGAA4-G-1) - PCPartPicker

They are both excellent cases for thermals once all fans are installed. The H5 seems to be slightly better in terms of airflow, but this doesn’t make the 4000D a bad case (for reference I have a 4000D and set all my fans to minimum regardless of workload - AIO included - and I hardly have any issues whatsoever - see disclaimer below). 
 

However, a lot of it also depends on which one you like the most which is subjective. 
 

Disclaimer: I also have a 5800X as a CPU but I limited its maximum power draw losing ~0.1 GHz when turboing. Whereas for my GPU I do not really play graphically heavy games.

The H5 Flow bottom fan is cool and it gives some air directly to the GPU. The 4000D is also a nice case. Which one would you prefer?
