Corsair cases are very well built, and have nice touches which are unique to corsair. The 750D is an awesome case, with plenty of room to build and expand.

They all have their different uses...

H440: Quiet and Looks

R5: A mix of everything(airflow, noise, looks)

750D: Space and airflow.

If i were you, i'd say just get the R5 unless you are going to do some multi card setup/adding in a bunch of drives in the future otherwise 750D.

R5, I may be a little biased tho  :P Honestly i dont think you can go wrong picking any of those cases.  The 750d is  a full tower iirc so its probably a bit bigger than the others.

Hi there, I'm going for a quite a modern build which you can find here

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17ln89jMXG6OYuHeoXaaepsOoU3D6kX0XvrwujtiiC7k/edit#gid=0

 

However I'm undecided with the case. I would like to hear other people's opinions to help my decision.

I can't make a better job comparing the H440 and the R5 than Dimitri did, as for the 750D, that's a full tower, so, it's not a perfect comparison. If you got big hands building in a big tower may be worth it, but the other 2 are very comfortable to build in so...no size preference at all?

R5. It's really modular and silent and also offers good airflow. just configure your fans correctly andit'll be awesome

BRRRT!

Out of the three, I quite like the Define R5 and the H440. (Can't go wrong with either of them) But another case I would suggest is the Phanteks Enthoo Pro. It's around the same price bracket of the H440 and the Define R5, and I'd say you get basically the best of all the three cases above in one (other than the sound deadening of the H440 and the R5).

Airflow on the h440 isn't the best, but it is a great case to look at and silent.

Idk personal preference, I love the 750D/R5 look, but if you're going for a more gamerish feel the H440 is obvious.

Great video. I'm not really fussed about the size of the case at all. I currently have a Cool Master Haf X
