Hello guys.

 

As I'm picking a new case for my build, I'm looking at these two:

 

NXZT h440 Black/red

 

Phanteks Enthoo Pro

 

If you could write pro/cons with them, and come with suggestions of what I should choose, I'd love to hear that.

 

I'm choosing either a h105 or h100i as CPU cooler plus a gtx 780 ti matrix from Asus.

 

Thank you.

I would say go for the Enthoo Pro if you like bigger cases with more support for motherboards and GPU's, Otherwise go for the H440 for slick looks and clean nice looking build at the end.

H440! It's such a sleek and sexy case, I love mine! Link to full picture breakdown of the case http://imgur.com/a/jrIai

It's pretty neat, a lot. But I'm afraid that my stuff cant fit in there. Also what about the fans? Are you using the fancontroller in the back? I've heard it just sets them to 12v 100% speed at all time.

Oh right, the parts should fit... you may need to take out a HDD caddy, but should be fine. Check out the unofficial fan club thread: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/117203-unofficial-ltt-nzxt-h440-owners-club/

As for the fans, yea I use the default for now, it's not a huge concern of mine, it's not all that loud unless you pull the panels off, only hear it at night when there's no other sound (like music or yt), but you can always go noctua after with a different fan controller, but would need to be external or system controlled because obviously there's no where to stick a conventional front panel slider set.

Well one of the only reasons that I'm considering another case, is that I want some drivebases. I'm very happy about my current external fan-controller and that little more space.

I'm getting the asus maximus vii formula + asus matrix 780 ti. Also I'm thinking of a 105, but I'm afraid it doesn't fit in the h440

That... That is quite good, I've never heard of that case. I'll take that into consideration! It seem pretty nice. All I'm pretty much is looking for is windows case, 2x120MM in top and enough room for a h105.
