Not many people can actually fill up a 900D, I'll say that much. I think you'd be better off with an H440.

900D is ridiculous.

It's an unnecessary case imo.

Generally most people go with a case like the h440 for general builds as the 900D is WAY too big for air cooling,

however extreme liquid coolers jump straight for Case Labs.

I believe the 900D has no place in the market.

I was going to get the H440 but it was too big for my small desk so I got a Node 804, and the 900D is ridiculously huge so unless you want some crazy SLI and water cooling go with the H440.

That's like saying "there should only be one brand of cars on the market because all the others are worse."

Plenty of people have a 900D with awesome watercooling or modding in it. Also some people don't like caselabs cases for several reasons. Personal preference is different for everybody. Just because you wouldn't use it doesn't mean there aren't a million others who would gladly build a PC in it. Also just fyi, Caselabs can get expensive when looking into full towers.

 

Either way, OP should definitely get the H440.

Those will fit perfectly fine in a H440.

Also, consider the kraken x61 (if you can afford it) because it performs much better than a h110 (cause its a thicker rad)

Where and when did you get your 800D?

 

If I could find one of those, I'd buy it on impulse.

I got it about 2 years ago at memory express (because NCIX was out of stock  :angry: ) Right before the 900D and 750D were released.

In your video where you modded the H100i you said in the comments you wanted to get a 760T.

 

I asked about you selling it, but you weren't into that. I'll buy it fr $200 which is enough for the 760T and extra I believe.

But I'm not going to ship this case anywhere. If I sell it its going to be on Craigslist where I live (Vancouver).

I'll pay shipping.

No, I'm not going through all the trouble to package it and send it, and have it arrive in good conditions, etc...

I would rather just sell it for $100 in person and use my own money for a 760T.

All kinds of speakers, most from craigslist.

There are 4 more speakers at the back for surround, which are not in the pics. Also there is an extra 8" sub at the back of the room, because I replaced it with this awesome new 12" monster.

H440 FTW 

or S340 when it comes out

I think the 900D is overpriced and it's too big.

The S430 is shipping within the month according the NZXT's PR guy on Reddit.

And so GabeN has told us to march forthith unto the Land of Holy welding our swords of mice, shields of keyboards, and helmets of Oculus Rifts where we shall reclaim it-which is rightfully ours-from the PUNY Console Peasants from whom armed only with mere controllers we shall decimate in all forms of battle and we shall dominate even in their most ridiculous tradition and infatuation of CoD. Yes, my brothers- sisters and trans sexuals too- we shall destroy the inferior of races with our might and majesty.

Also, the 900D isn't much bigger than the 800D and yours doesn't look too empty.

Well that's cause the window covers up most of the empty space to the right of the motherboard. The 900D has a full size window and you will easily see all the space between the motherboard and drive cages.
