Help! I need this case!

[Basshead]

Does anyone know where I can find https://nzxt.com/product/h510-flow? I really need that case. I am willing to pay new price for used but well taken care of in full working condition including front I/O.

It's a band-aid fix that made a poor case into a "meh" one.

 

It's been superseded in NZXT's lineup by superior models.

 

What is it about it that's so important to you? 

[tkitch]

objectively the H5 Flow was a superior case

I like the airflow, size, and most importantly the look. I have a very specific idea in my mind for how I want it to look. Otherwise I'd pick H5. I like the white with black vents (dirty white vents dont look good.) I am stuck on this case and can't change my mind. lol

What airflow?

 

This series was infamous for being a hotbox and then they somewhat mitigated it by punching holes in the front (basically what modders on sites like Etsy were already doing). Top is still stupidly closed off. H5 Flow is much better if you actually care about this.

 

So that's airflow spoken for. Size is basically the same. Look? Buy an H5 Flow and paint it.

I like front to back cooling. Isn't that what this is?

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but if you're thinking that the the cooling will somehow be more efficient because of the lack of ventilation in the top making the air go in a 'straight' path or something... it won't be. 

 

The H510's poor top ventilation is just restricting overall airflow through the case and giving you fewer useful options for fan/radiator placement.

There are many other cases which do it much better than this one 

Exhibit A: Corsair 4000D Airflow ATX Mid Tower Case (CC-9011201-WW) - PCPartPicker

Exhibit B: Fractal Design Pop Air RGB ATX Mid Tower Case (FD-C-POR1A-06) - PCPartPicker

Exhibit C: Montech AIR 903 MAX ATX Mid Tower Case (AIR 903 MAX (W)) - PCPartPicker

 

903 MAX is basically the god of temps (For the price) when it comes to GPU, still not bad for CPU

Look i dont need exceptional cooling. Im used to oem cases, thats what im going from. I really like this case and tbh you have two 120mm fans on the front, a smaller fan on the back and on top in the back, and then psu exhaust. I'm going to get this: NZXT H510 Flow Mid Tower ATX Case w/ Tempered Glass, White - Invastor

 

I'll post how that goes.

 

P.S. I'm using 4000rpm fans.
