Hi guys,

 

I have been looking around online and I can't find many differences between the two. The only things I could find were the HDMI-passthrough and the tempered glass. Any things I missed that would make it worth the difference? And which one would you get?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Think the elite has an extra SSD mount thats on the front of the psu shroud, but other than that and what you listed, there's really no difference.

Cable management is slightly improved as well.

One big difference is the crappy PSU filter on the old 340 (one of those flimsy plastic honey comb filters held in by tabs that you couldn't just pull out easily) is replaced in the Elite by the "fabric mesh with plastic frame" thats easily removable from the back.
