NZXT H700i - ATX Mid-Tower PC Gaming Case - CAM-Powered Smart Device - RGB and Fan Control - Enhanced Cable Management System – Water-Cooling Ready - Black - 2018 Model

Excellent Case!I have been a Corsair Snob for the last 8 years or so when it came to PC cases. My work machine is in a Obsidian 800D, my gaming rig in the Graphite 600t and I figured there was no way an NZXT case would even come close to the quality in the Corsair cases.I was wrong. This case is very well made. Every edge is thoughtfully finished with the exception of one external rivet on the rear of the case that has a sharp edge. It only took a few seconds with a file and a dab with a paint pen to finish it out.Cable management is good, CAM is neat, and it fit the bid for a smooth case devoid of any major exterior design features that screamed, "Hey I just drank 2 monsters and want to play COD all night!"I built a X299 platform inside this case with a H105 in the front mount position. Airflow is good.CAM requires a USB header from inside the case, so if your MOBO only has one, you will need an internal hub to get everything working. I used another the NZXT Hub to do that. Nzxt Internal USB Hub Controller, Black (AC-IUSBH-M1)

The media could not be loaded. I have a lot to say about this case,First the rgb strips it comes with are awesome and it’s nice to not have to put them on yourself! The smart hub is not nearly as bad as people say, it works well for me, just set your CAM settings and you don’t really have to ever mess with it again.Next the cable management is good but the pre-installed smart box takes up a lot of the cable management positions that you have to deal with I had a modular PSU I have a little bit of difficulties because of how much wiring it took up.Secondly if you’re running a full-size ATX motherboard and you’re going to have a trouble fitting a 360 mm all in one cooler I had to change up my whole build because of this fact. It also had to do with my asus rig Maximus xi hero having huge HeatSinksGPU installation is very easy and the option for the 140 mm fan in the back is a nice touch.Lastly the ability to take out part of the top of the case so you could install fans easier and then place it back into the case is an amazing feature Also the pushbutton release of the back of the case is amazing so easy to take out the back of the caseOverall it’s an amazing case and it’s very easy to get cables to the motherboard without having too many cable sticking out I would recommend this case to a friend and to any first time builders or experience builder

I have built in a few cases and none have been as intuitive as this one. Routing wires via the pathways they created makes everything so organized. There are multiple ways to do practicality everything. That redundancy is very helpful in the event you need to be able to route a component in a different manor. A good example is SSD mounting. I went through about 4 different options before I found one that worked the best. My last case had two options and both were irksome. There are holes and crevices in all the right places. It is clear that they did a lot of work to determine how to make it less hectic to build a computer. It also looks really nice. Little details make the case simple and clean. I like this because it allows me to make it mine. The case isn't trying to do more than it needs to visuals wise.Only criticism, mounting the tempered glass. It is a pain to mount. It doesn't seem to want to lay properly and the thumb screws are not easy to work with. I don't know how to describe their tendency to roll away after you unscrew them. They also do not seem to like to be screwed into place. The back plate is incredibly easy to get on and off. It would be nice if the front was as easy as the back.

Building in was extremely easy. Plenty of room to work in and the cable management system is top notch. Fits a Kraken x72 radiato in push/pull and fans with plenty of room to spare. The case feels really well built and sturdy. The smart hub is nice to have but not required. It only controls one channel of RGB so you can either run the included 2 strips of leds or RGB fans. I ended up plugging my 3 AER RGB fans into the smart hub and had to the led strips into the HUE2 that came with my fan kit. The tempered glass makes everything just look clean. Good ventilation on all sides of the case as well so there shouldn't be any airflow chokes.

This is a very solid case, no sharp edges, good quality finish inside and out. The front panel fit is very tight and to me that is a good thing since it means there won't be rattles in the future. Cable management is extremely well thought out so even having extra cables for an ARGB AIO wasn't difficult to handle.With a 10.6" long 1080 TI, because the front rad/fan mount is removable and pulls out the front instead of the back, there's actually room to install a 240mm standard radiator, which was a surprise.The vertical gap cover piece which can be used for a liquid cooler reservoir/pump is pretty nice, though if you are using an AIO with the rad hose connections on top, there isn't quite a big enough gap on top to comfortably route the tubes over the top of it. It could work but it looks like it would put too much strain on the radiator hose inlet/outlet.My only real gripe is that the thumb screws (with the exception of the ones that hold the tempered glass panel in place) aren't very good. The paint on them seems like an afterthought, and while they function and none of them have stripped out or anything, the threaded holes they screw into aren't very smooth feeling. The ones for the metal side panel are captive, however, which is nice.For me, there were a lot of additional little holes here and there on the front and bottom panels that I felt the need to block off. I went for a positive internal pressure fan setup with a front to rear air flow and it seemed like that pressure differential wouldn't be possible otherwise.
