Personally, I would say do not get any case by NZXT, but that is only because I had a nightmare of an experience. I recently bought the "Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case". I don't know yet if the Corsair's going to be a good one, but it has positive reviews. Still, even if the NZXT cases had positive reviews, from my experience with them, I will never get one again.

Should i get NZXT h440 is it any Good or should i get another PC case 

depends on your needs. Do you plan on water cooling? what about adding extra hard drives? Do you plan on upgrading the system in multiple ways (same question more broad)? what form factor are you using?

The old NZXT case I had, immediately had to send parts back for replacements, dealt with horrible customer service, waited a long time for replacement, finally received them and meanwhile there were flimsy parts inside it. To make it worse, the electronics themselves ended up breaking after a while, the power/reset buttons, the physical buttons themselves, the wiring. It was just a mess. 

 

Then again, someone else might tell you NZXT cases are great (in their experience).

 

I'm building a new computer now and from what I've seen of the Corsair 750D case, it looks like it's much better designed.

 

Maybe Corsair's better quality?

 

Hopefully more people - who have used multiple/several case brands - can chime in.

You could do this:

https://pcpartpicker.com/builds/

...and just use a list of parts that someone else compiled, then build that.

 

Or you could do this:

https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/

...and, well, same idea... it's a guide.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CD2Ym8 this is the PC i am gonna buy But i just dont know What case and like you Said What i am gonna liquid on CPU or other parts

Save $70, remove Windows from list, get it here:

https://www.kinguin.net/category/19429/windows-10-professional-oem-key/

 

Put that $ into something else if ya want.

 

Don't have to liquid cool the CPU or any other parts.

 

Here's my list:

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/KCmetro/saved/R3wcf7

 

I'm just using a CPU liquid cooler, I'm not liquid cooling anything else.

 

On a future computer, I might liquid cool a bunch of stuff. I don't know.

 

You don't have to liquid etc. anything. You could just use heat sink + fans.

 

Actually, there's a really cool setup now, the front panel case fan aims to a cpu fan, going to heat sink, going to another cpu fan, going to the rear panel case fan, pretty cool (literally and figuratively). I don't have an example of what it looks like, but wish I had that on my 1st build.

Sure thing. My math was a little off, I see that listed Windows in your list was $95 or $85 w/ rebate, normally it's approx. $100 from where I've seen it, hence saving $70 on the $30 windows key... but $50, yeah, either way. Watch this to get a better idea of kinguin and windows:

 

 

 

(it used to be $20... kinguin cranked up the price to $28)

How Many case fan do you Think i should have

How Many case fan do you Think i should have

On my previous build, I bought extra fans, but it was also 100% air cooled.

 

On this build, I'm using cpu liquid cooler, I'm going to see if I can get away with only using the stock fans, the fans that came with the parts.

 

So that means it has 8 fans total:

2 front fans (came with case)

1 rear fan (came with case)

2 top fans (came with liquid cpu cooler)

1 psu fan (came with psu)

2 gpu fans (came with gpu)

 

The GPU fans are built into it, they only help the video card out, nothing else in the case.

 

The PSU fan doesn't make a huge difference, it's just to keep the psu from overheating (fan down).

 

The top fans are similar to other fans on a cpu setup. The "liquid" part is just a replacement for the heat sink. The fans themselves serve 2 purposes, first they help channel cpu heat out of the case, second they help channel other warm air from in the case out of the case.

 

The rear fan helps push the hot air in the case out.

 

The front fans help pull in air (hopefully cool air) from outside the case.

 

I'd love to have a cooling unit outside a case and have the intake fans suck in that cold air.
