H440 should have great airflow. So will the Corsair SPEC Alpha. I have the SPEC-02, and it can fit 2 140mm fans in front, 1+ the PSU in the bottom, two on top, and one in the back. I'm getting the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv, so I can let you know how the airflow is (probs not as good as the H440, but I'm gonna do a custom loop eventually).

Welcome to the forums!!!. the H440 is the perfect case. get a white mobo and card and you will be solid. use water cooling as well.

do you want the case to be silence or just not super load? any regular case with quality fans wont sound like airplane. a bit noisy when playing heavy load games only.

if you want absolute silence case i wouldnt recommend any of the one you choose cuz of the side panel will leak noise.

 

cooling wont be a huge issue for both of the case. i7-7700k and 1070 are not toasters.

 

So if you dont mind minor noise, both case is fine. if you do, you need to look for silent cases.

Define C is always the answer :ph34r:

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
