NZXT H440 Owner's experience

[CRA5HMAN]

Hello,
I am about to pull a trigger on a white version of this case. I love clean look and the cable management (for the most part ) seems to be done really well. I have done a fair bit of research and it is very well rated. I also spoke to a builder at one of the shops near me and he said he has used them a lot and it's a solid case.
Before I purchase it, I just wanted to see the opinions/experiences of any owners or builders who have used this case before.

Thanks.

I went for it and will update with a pic after completion. I am excited because this is the first time I have done this.

I've been using the H440, or at least modding it for some time. Love the case.

You can see my build here and it might give you some insight to the case.

Thanks Tweakin, that is some serious modding! I just finnished moving all the parts over and making it as neat and tidy as possible. Added some lighting and am searching for PCI express, CPU and mobo extensions, but the ones I want are really hard to find, I can't find them in Canada. I'll link some images soon. Thanks for sharing, quite a build. When is it going to be complete?

Here are the results, although it has only been 1 day I am really liking it. I want to paint the SoundBlaster Z's Shroud. It seems to be a hard aluminium. Any suggestions for type of paint to use Tweakin?

I'm going to tear it down this week for the final mods and wiring, along with replacing a few connections. That will complete all the internal mods.

Externally, I still have to mod the side panel with glass and then I'll be modding the top and front of the case with some slats to enhance the air flow...just cause I can!

Nice clean install there! Instead of painting the soundblaster, what about carbon wrap in white? I have some and it's pretty cool stuff!

Do you own a White or Black NZXT H440? I will be speaking to NZXT about offering modified front grilled panels

Otherwise Pretty straight forward DIY video guide for making front grill in the NZXT H-series front panel

H440 user here as well. Love mine but thinking of switching to a S340 Elite on my next build just because I don't need the extra space and the front/top HDMI would be nice for VR. As far as modding it for airflow goes, I haven't found a need for that.

Old thread, but I have one as well. The Razer version, with a Kraken x62 for cooling. Overall the case is pretty nice, good air flow and looks.
