When upgrading an old machine turns in to building a new PC!! Was after a cheapish, white, windowed case and this seemed to fit the bill. I remember looking at the bigger sibling when I built my last machine and thinking it looked good. This case does look nice and is quite compact. Fits on top of a desk well, to make the most of using the glass side.Although it's not that much smaller, dimensions-wise to my main PC chassis which is a Phanteks Pro M it just seems it. The components sit much closer to the glass than on the Phanteks - on that one you can fit a 140mm fan at the rear but on the NZXT you're stuck with a 120mm. Also,the glass panel doesn't go from top to bottom and I think that makes it seem a bit smaller compared to the Phanteks as the whole side is glass and it just makes it look more 'airy'.Because of the size, I did find it a little bit more fiddly to work in but that's probably due to my large sausage fingers. In these days where the number of components used is a lot smaller than in the old days where USB cards, sound cards, mechanical disks were the norm, this isn't really a problem. Even with a non-modular PSU there's plenty of space under the PSU shroud to hide away all the unused cables, and the metal side panel has enough space between it and the chassis to thread your wiring pretty easily. There's an SSD mount as well on that side to keep your SSD out of sight. The cage/mounting for 3.5" disks isn't that great though as to get disks in it looks like you'd have to pop the PSU out as the disks go in aligned from front to back rather than side to side.Some of the thumbscrews occasionally need a screwdriver to loosen but generally work well. Not having a full length glass side means it is very easy to remove it - unscrew thumbscrew and then just pull the top back and lift out - much less chance of damaging it than with some cases. The removable front fan/radiator bracket is a winner and makes fitting either a lot easier.Case comes with two 120mm NZXT fans which are OK. I have replaced the top one with a 140mm fan as the machined grill is that size so it just seems to make sense to put one there. Why NZXT only used a 120mm must be purely down to saving a few pennies. There's only one button - on/off and a single USB A and C port on the top - an extra A type would have been useful but it's nice having the C there.Think that's it really. It's a nice case. Not quite as solid as the Phanteks but seems well made - everything is screwed, no pop-outs. It's light, compact, and looks good. Air flow seems OK but I think increasing the top fan to 140mm has helped shift a bit more heat out. I tried adding a fan or two at the front but this didn't do much so removed again - the case is designed to work using negative pressure and that does seem to be the best way to play it.

I decided to buy this as an “upgrade” for my ageing H440 (I use the term upgrade loosely as on paper, it doesn’t seem to spec up as well; being a smaller case overall, not having as much space for storage drives and less radiator support, just to point out a couple). After completing my build, my mind was totally changed. This case is a joy to work with.I had previously watched GamerNexus’ video on the “i” series of cases by NZXT, where he said that the smart device doesn’t work very great, but after using it for a while, I certainly beg to differ. Although on the website the included fans are listed to be 28dB, they never seem to ramp up anywhere near that,as the CAM software does a great job of using the smart devices’ built in sound monitor to create a custom fan curve for your system, at just a click of a button.Space on the building side is plentiful. Once you get the motherboard installed, everything is a breeze. The front mounting section for the fans is removable - very nice touch - as this means that you can externally install fans or even an AIO radiator without having to struggle with any space constraints.Cable management on the rear side is also a piece of cake due to the pre-installed cable Velcro strips along with the big-enough cable channels that can be used, and there is a pretty decent sized gap between the tray and the back panel also, so you don’t have to be overly meticulous about making sure there are absolutely no stray cables, since the only side panel you can see through is the beautiful tempered glass panel that showcases your work of art. Wonderful.The CAM software does exactly as its needed to do (creating your fan curve, and controlling the built in RGB LED strips - along with any additional LED equipped NZXT peripherals you may install down the line). For reference, there is one RGB LED strip installed along the top of the case, and one behind the genius idea of a cable management bar, which is a great substitute for rubber grommets, as it just keeps the build looking super clean.NZXT have smashed it again with this new line of cases.

This is probably one of the best looking cases you can get if you're not wanting something that's really 'gamery' but still has some of the gamer features like RGB. The RGB strip and 4 fans all came preinstalled and plugged into the fan controller ready to roll. The 2 front fans look really nice through the darkened tempered glass and with the fan controller software can be customized to your own liking. Just everything about this case is visually stunning.There's ample space inside for your build as well. I didn't feel restricted at all in getting parts inside. There is plenty of options for cable management and the only cable that is really on show is the one that goes to the front of the graphics card,but considering where the socket is on the card this can't really be avoided. The cable is only on show for as much as necessary however and quickly disappears down a hole designed for cable management. There are runners on the back for guiding cables but these can be considered on the small side and to get something like the 24 pin power cable to follow it can be a struggle because of this. A little perseverance (and cable ties) goes a long way however and you can get it in there.I had some difficulty mounting a 2 fan AIO, it could've been my fault in choosing a corsair AIO over the NZXT one but the only place for mounting it is the front panel. I'm going off memory but I believe the front panel fans are 140mm, the radiator I bought suits 120mm fans so there was some mismatch that led to me having to bodge the AIO into place or replace the 140mm fans with 120mm. I opted for the bodge as 120mm fans look a bit out of place in the front. It's doable, just not as sleek as the rest of the case (though looks wise you wouldn't notice that it's a bodge).Some of the screws and thumb screws are on the course side of things as well, plus I managed to strip the head off one of the front panel grub screws so they are not the best. Overall though I'm more than happy I chose this case for my first build. It looks great sat in my living room on full show.

Overall a very nice case. Well built and sturdy due to the steel construction and actual tempered glass. The option at the back of the case to mount your GPU horizontally was actually very useful for getting into that area when installing my GPU, wireless and sound cards and there is plenty of space at the top and bottom of the Motherboard to route cables through, something i've always struggled with.The built in fan hub in the back is also a very nice touch and ended up the only fan me actually installing via the Motherboard being the CPU fan (i'm using an AIO). It also has the front panel connectors in a single input as well which was very nice as i've always struggled with them in the past.There aren't many bad points but the biggest i found was the screws.Throughout the tower, the screws were either on far too tight meaning i almost threaded several just trying to put my cards on and the thumbscrews for the front and back panels feel really cheap and don't seem to fit quite right meaning they can be very difficult to take off and put back on. I ended up actually using a different screw for one of the back slots as the one they provided simply didn't fit.One last thing i would ask, they have obviously made an effort with cable management and there are some very nice ideas but perhaps putting a space at the back for the slightly bulkier wires would be an option. I found it quite tricky with the Motherboard 12 pin and the other bulkier cables to get them into a place where i could close the backplate without too much pressure being on it.Other than that though i would recommend this case. It managed to fit my Sapphire Vega 64 which is a huge card with a little bit to spare (that's with a push/pull radiator setup at the front) and the RGB element was effortless. Worked straight out the box with no issues at all. Though i'm quite boring and went with a nice pale teal colour to mix well with my white LED fans.Overall, a good solid case for the price but some easy steps they could improve on.

Why did I buy it? I wanted a good looking case to show off my new hardware, and this thing looks stunning. Front fans are lit and colour can be customised using NZXTs software. Installation of components was easy - be careful you use the correct screws for securing the motherboard though, there's quite a selection so check the instructions if you're not sure. Don't quite understand how the alternative gfx card mounting works without some sort of PCI-E cable (are they a thing?) And even then, doesn't look like there's enough clearance for effective soiling with the windows on the case.Cabling for built in lighting is all ready to go, just connect it to the motherboard as per instructions and it's ready to go.This thing is stunning, and the layout is novel, hiding the PSU and disks out of the way, glass front and side to show of any RGB or fancy hardware, but...Why didn't I give it 5*s? Opening the case on arrival should have been easier, the instructions are clear on how to do this, but they arrive inside the case. A couple of the screw hols didn't line up perfectly, mounted everything fine but I don't expect that on a case half the price. Cable routing and management is good, but it's not perfect and I had to make a couple of compromises, especially when connecting the CPU fan to the board. USB A socket at the front is ever so slightly misaligned, almost slightly rotated inside the case, meaning a bit of force is required to insert a device. This does however give a nice secure fit so it shouldn't develop any play leading to connection issues over the years as some of my cases have.Is this case worth the price? There's really not much else like it, it's spacious and cable management may work out better for you than it did for me, maybe the misalignment issues were limited to a small batch, but I expected better. If this case is the one you want, then it's worth the price, if you can live with something (overall) similar for less, I'd consider looking at that instead.

I did a lot of research before coming to my decision, I wanted the H510 Elite but at the price of £149.99 compared to the H510's £74.99 price I was hesitant.I jumped onto youtube and watch about 5 videos on the case and all of them said the H510 elite was over prices and lacking features and for double the price of the H510 it wasn't worth the price.However I saw it was on offer for £130 and decided to get it anyway and I didn't regret it!Not only does it look amazing and a lot nicer than the ordinary H510, it is actually worth the extra money!The H510 comes with only 2 fans in the rear with no fans in the front so you can add your own liquid CPU cooler,and no RGB lighting.If you're going for the water-cooled CPU block then this is probably the case for you.But seeing as I was going to use the stock CPU cooler the H510 Elite was perfect.As the H510 Elite came with two rear fans and 2 front facing fans as well as RGB.If I had bought the H510 I would have had to spend another £44 for two fans (at the time of writing this) and another £14 for and RGB strip - totalling to £58 which would come to £1 more than what I paid for the H510 Elite.Which is something to consider if you're going air cooled with the stock cooler and are wanting RBG lighting.It was my first time building a PC and the case was easy to build in and took me just over an hour to do.Cable management was easy with the large basement and the preinstalled channels for easy cable managing.The case came with a load of screws and zip ties most of which are spare.The case came with a few marks but they're not very visible so I wasn't really bothered.All I would say is that if you're thinking about getting the H510 Elite but are putting it off but have the money, I would say to just go for it, especially if it's on offer, I couldn't be happier with how it's turned out and I think it looks a lot better than the standard H510!

Absolutely love this case. This was my first PC build from scratch and it's a great case for new starters who want to put together their own rig. Very clean aesthetic. The internal cable management is pretty good, although I did have to fight a little with the 'cover' piece that runs to the right of the mobo, as it made it a little difficult to plug in the front USB 3.0 ports and my SATA cable, but that could also be an unfortunate symptom of my mobo's port placement!Something to be aware is the case is designed in stock config to work on 'negative pressure' for airflow - meaning the two fans it comes with are both blowing outward, meaning the case is effectively 'sucking'in air around it through any and all openings. Thankfully NZXT have included airflow filters over all the designed vents to mitigate any possible dust build-up, but it'll end up in there eventually. Also, if you're worried about thermal performance from this, it's actually surprisingly very good despite being negative pressure based. My GPU never gets higher than 45C on heavy sustained load, which is very impressive!One caveat that might bother some (but not me!) is there's NO front drive mounts. So no CD/DVD/BR drives. Instead there's a mount for two fans which you could use for intake if you want to change the airflow to positive pressure. Another tiny complaint, but not enough to deduct a star, is that the screws around the PCIe slots at the back are REALLY tight - and you might find some paint flakes off. If you're concerned about this interfering with the motherboard, I highly recommend you figure out which slots you need to remove the covers from and do so BEFORE mounting your motherboard, as it might get a tiny bit messy.

This is possibly the greatest case that I've had the pleasure of building inside. The size of this case and the plethora of cable management options is beautiful, the case includes cable runways and Velcro straps to keep the cables tidy and neat. The inclusion of removable SSD trays that can be placed where holes are located is excellent, they can be placed visable at the front under the GPU or hidden round the back of the motherboard. The metal shroud to the right to allow cables from the back round the side is excellent, there is plenty space for cable extensions as well as the small cables from the front IO and case fans.The case itself mainly features metal and plastic,the plastic is of high quality and very durable. The case itself has some weight to it so be assure that its quality is top tier. The tempered glass brings a lovely dynamic and allows you to show off the internals of your build. The PSU shroud helps hide the power-supply cables and hard drive bays.During building, every area is accessible by removing side panels and thumbscrews, allowing for easy building and cable management.When the case arrived, it was well packaged and honestly it was bigger than i expected which was a pleasant surprise, this was my first case that could hold ATX and above, i was more used to mATX. The standoffs are well placed making installation of the motherboard easy. Accessories are kept in a small NZXT branded cardboard box and contains various cables for the motherboard and all the necessary screws.This case could easily support customer water cooling loops and AIOs with radiators, the case has a removable bracket at the front of the case for radiator installation.

I'm really pleased with this case. It looks great, is quiet and was very easy (even with my crappy stock PSU cables) to build very tidily!There any many clever little innovations like the channels with Velcro straps for cable routing, little plastic clips for SSDs, etc.The only negatives are:Manual is like Ikea instructions, pictures only. Fine if you know what you're doing.The caddy for conventional Hard disks requires removal to install drives which requires the case to be on its side to remove. Also, there is zero clearance so the bottom slot is useless for most power connectors. The same is true if you attach a drive directly to the bottom of the case, no clearance so impossible.Luckily I only had 1 to install so I moved it higher, bit this seems like an unnecessary failure. If I was NZXT I would have the caddy take little plastic mounts that can be screwed to the side of the disks, then drives can be added/removed without removing the whole thing.There is no way to route cables from the radiator tray on top without going round the ends of the radiator. In my case the fans in a pull configuration were too short to reach the fan header because of this, i had to use an extender. Given how good cable routing is in general, it would have been nice to see a way to route the cables from the radiator tray straight down into the back of the case.Otherwise it's fantastic. Looks amazing, quite and I've had no problems with cooling (initially i was worried about this because of the solid front/top of the case).Kinda wish I'd got the 710i for the eye-candy, but I know that after 2 weeks I wont care about flashy lights so in the long-term, the right decisions!

Literally the best case I have ever had the privilege of building in. The amount of ease I had with this case is actually insane, plugging in the cables and dealing with cable management was very easy thanks to the included straps, helpful plastic panels and the nicely placed and Infamous nzxt hole, making installing the 24pin and other cables (SATA USB 3.0 etc) easy. There is convenient hole at the top and bottom of the case to make it simple to plug in the CPU 8 pin and the other bottom cables (FPC USB2.0 etc). The front panel connectors were also easier to connect than ever before as this case had only 1 connector for the entire FPC, making it so simple,other cases NEED to have this now as theres no need for front panel connectors to be so awkward.The hard drive and ssd bays were also at the back of the case, keeping the build clean and concealing any cables that would originally be shown. Ssd's can be helpfully installed in little plastic bays that can be moved to where is easiest in the back or even front of the case if wanted. The case helps to make the build cleaner by having a power supply shroud extending through the bottom of the case. Installing case fans is also very simple and satisfying, having a removable panel at the front for 2 extra fans if needed, as 2 nzxt fans are included you are fine with not putting in extra fans anyway. The structure of the case is amazing and not what I expected, the side panel was very easy to keep the cables in and the tempered glass is great for showing off the components within the case, overall a great case I would recommend anyone who is looking for a mid size tower with easy and satisfying building.

Cheap mid-tower case with built in RBG strips and fan controller unit. I'd never built a PC from the ground up before so wanted something user friendly and spacious ... but also what's the point of that process if things don't look great and have a premium feel. I love this case. It looks amazing (if you like that boxy, plain aesthetic ... like i do) and came with 2 NZXT fans (now in a box after being replaced) which was nice. It was a joy to build in as a noob ... lots of space to move around, great cable management and touches like the radiator/fan mount behind the front panel were a great touch too. the bottom shroud hides the PSU nicely and allows for hiding wiring, even if (like me)you have a non-modular PSU. Went with an MSI ATX board (B450 Carbon Gaming Pro Z), Rhyzen 3600x, Vengeance RAM, MSI RTX 2060 GPU and the NZXT Kraken X52 AOI CPU Cooler. All fits wonderfully and there's plenty of extra space if you wanted a larger radiator or AOI, or GPU (mine is 2 slots and not that long) and everything looks the nuts tbh. Only gripe would be the advertised vertical GPU slot ... if you used it the gPU would be mms from the tempered glass side panel and thus get very choked ... maybe you don't mind that for the better looks of the vertical card ... but it's stupidly positioned ... a gap of just 30-50mm would make this an actual viable option ... maybe that's why there's no included PCI riser cable ... they know no one will ever use it :)

Overall amazing case for the price, comes with 2 fans, good airflow, cable management made bit easier with multiple holders for zips/ties.The case could be better however, had slight issues with cable management, the stock power cables are thick which makes them hard bend and on most motherboards the connections will be at the edges, so I expected bit more space at the top of the case to run thicker cables, the metal stripe in the case could also be bit close to the glass leaving bigger gap behind for running cables as most of the connections are at the bottom for most MBs so the biggest clutter of cables is run where the gap is thinner and almost no cables run at the wider gap area.Also thesplitter thing for cable management could be less closed off to sides making it easier for cables to split at different heights. Just my opinion, havent build many PCs so it is based on my experience of someone who is new to PC building. Also make sure to tighten the standoffs, one of the 8 in my case was slightly loose thus had to remove MB a couple of times (can also be blamed on my inexperience, hoping that new screws and screw holes would fit better, while it is the opposite as some metal bits are still stuck once in a while, so better loosen the holes a bit before actually doing the installing and make sure you use correct screws.)

I was initially concerned with air inflow but an honest review convinced me to give it a try. As the review said, you do not necessarily require the front case fans if you are not using a liquid cooler with a radiator, you just have to get an appropriate fan cooler. Yes, I can attest to that. I don't have extra fans at the front but I have two Noctua fans, one 120mm at the back and one 14mm at the top.The CPU and GPU get adequate colling when my PC is running with overclocked settings that set the i7 9000K CPU at 5.2 GHz. The CPU is cooled using the Noctua NH-D15 Premium CPU Cooler which draws in air from the front of the case.I would recommend this case anytime because of its beautiful andsimplistic design and due to the fact that it allows adequate air inflow and outflow on my system.But be aware that, if you are going for the Noctua NH-D15 cooler, you will need an extra 120mm Fan (get Noctua if you can). I mentioned this before in my review of the Noctua cooler. You will need it because the outer 14mm fan is too high. Due to the position of the RAM slots, the fan would be slightly displaced resulting in about 3mm or more protrusion towards the tempered glass slide door/window so you might not be able to close it.

Recently I purchased the NZXT Case H510 and I have never seen a case in my life that impresses me with the price to quality ratio of this product, normally for a product this high quality and aesthetically pleasing you would be in the £100-£200 and with this product only being £65 I can't think of a better Mid-Tower Case. Upon the case arriving, I was welcomed to a case engulfed in bubble wrap and styrofoam, To make sure the product arrived safely. After taking out the case with ease I noticed that it included all the motherboard standoffs in the right location for the motherboard. Which I think is great as it shows that NZXT pay attention to every small detail in a case to make sure their customer satisfaction is top notch,And after that it was all up-hill, because throughout my build I didn't face any problems with the case not having enough airflow or big enough fans to support the intense heat. Although one small problem is that it only came with 1 fan resulting into me having to purchase another one. But all in all weighing out negatives to positives, the positives win and I can't think of a better product for such a low price. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend.

This thing is gorgeous. It’s so clean, well designed and looks the part!Probably my proudest possession.It comes with 2x 140mm led fans in the front, a 120mm at the back and to my surprise, a 140mm on the top tooThe fan/lighting smart hub is brilliant but I only use it for the lighting purposes. I prefer to run all my fan speeds through the motherboard and bios optionsOnly down side I can think of is the led ring around the power button doesn't light up for me. At first I thought it was because I only run an SSD and not a hdd on my system but then I saw videos online where people are doing the same but the power button light is still on.So I thought it might have been to do with the connection to the motherboard pins so I used the included connector that splits the socket up into individual wires but that didn’t fix it either. My only conclusion is the LED is a dud or a cable or connection has bust somewhere. But I’m not willing to strip my entire system down just for the sake of that light. I quite like the look of the stealth subtle exterior with that light off. I’ve seen it has annoyed a few people online with how bright and blinky it can be
