Hey guys,

Anyone have this case? It's recently come in stock locally and I'm looking for something to replace my Antec SX1040B. For those curious; yes, I've been using the same case for over 10 years, this puppy has had everything from a Pentium 3 to what's in it now and it's time to move on.

I want something about the same size, although much quieter. I am no longer concerned with overclocking and simply need quiet stability.

I'm a bit iffy on buying a $100 case but the reviews look good. I would also be purchasing an optional 140mm exhaust fan.

What do you guys think?
 
I think NZXT cases are awesome, very good build quality. I used the M-59 on a recent build and was impressed with the value per dollar. The Rosewill case I have in the same price range is a piece of shit in comparison - no cable management, time consuming to change HDD's, mb didn't fit w/o mods etc.

The h2 is a nice looking case. It's supposed to be quiet so it might be a good choice for you. The only thing I don't like about it is the door on the front, like many of their models.

Thanks for the reply, I think with this feedback I'll be purchasing it. It's really quite affordable. I was surprised. The door issue I'm not partial to but I do appreciate that the door includes noise dampening foam and the fan intakes are on the side. So I actually prefer that just to make it a bit quieter.

Thanks a bunch!
 
I dunno, Overclock3D tore into this case for being cheap. For that price, why not get a Fractal R3?

Sorry for the second post but.. I'm watching their video review now. Man they really tear into it. I'm second guessing now lol. I hate buying cases :|
