How to open nzxt h440 Videos

+zen flores I can't decide between h440 or s340 cases.

+- vincentz - R5 FTW

Good choice, actually im also trying to decide between them, it's quite hard lol :p

+- vincentz - Thanks I'm going for the R5 :)

+zen flores Depends on what your looking for. If you're looking for a completely silent build, the define r5 is a way better choice. Imo the h440 is a bit more stylish than the r5, although they both look awesome. :)

+RemovedMoney 326 Yea, what i thought as well. Might be hard with both the cages but if you remove the top one any card should fit in nicely :)

+Jordan Lea I fitted my GTX 970 G1 just fine after removing one of the hdd cages, and the G1 is one of the biggest cards out there, so don't worry you will be fine.

+r1Ns3 ok thats good to know cuz i've been pretty dead set on this case :)

+Jordan Lea I doubt it wouldn't fit, its ATX I'm sure if you take out one of the hard drive cages it would fit fine.Hopefully it will fit my gtx 980 ti....

+RemovedMoney 326 so you think a gtx 980 would fit? Just bought one cuz i got a great deal and wondering if i'm gonna have to change cases now. It's so big!

+Jordan Lea are you thinking about the G1 windforce 3x? Thats what Im going to be trying to fit.. Looks a bit fishy tho that card is MASSIVE and I am scared.....

yeah, if you remove the HDD Drive bays that are at the same height as the gpu.

+Alpha Cat A dick that remains unsooked!

+El' Duderino ho ho ho, what do we have here!

+RemovedMoney 326 now suck my cock >:)

+El' Duderino you are welcome xD

+RemovedMoney 326 Thank you very much sir!

The H series of corsair liquid coolers have leds on the processor cooler itself. you can programm which color using the Corsair Link software with compatible corsair coolers

+El' Duderino *processor cooler

yes. 3x 120mm and 1x 140mm

+MrScreamingSilence Depends on what color sheme you got. In the white case, it comes with a white LED.

+CoCo CoCo You could order a small sheet of 3M Dinoc carbon fiber vinyl sheet and cut it to cover the entire black section containing the logo. It's thick and easy to apply. It looks nice if you take time to cut it out perfectly and apply it carefully.

Force it off. it cant say no.

+Stephen savage Have you tried taking it to dinner first? Maybe a few drinks?

+bas van der werff Damn.

+Stephen savage maby she just not interested?

+ryushev2000 You can always get an external Blu-ray drive. I picked one up for cheap awhile back and use it mostly to reinstall Windows via a Dell OEM disc for people I work with.As for the fan controller, if the hub that is built into this case isn't good enough there are some really decent internal fan controllers that utilize software. I have a Corsair Commander Mini in my mATX build and it works perfectly. Granted, there's no screen to show you on the case itself that shows you details (it's a software controller), but I'd rather have the slot taken up by the 5.25" bays utilized for something like another, especially since physical media seems to be going the way of the dodo.To each their own, though.

+christopher villareal have you heard of fan controllers or coolant tanks that fit into 5.25 bays? also having a blu ray dvd cd drive is very practical especially if you want to listen to older cds or when your friends use outdated tech

+ryushev2000 still using CD/DVD in 2015? seriously?

ikr but other than that it is actually a good case 

+Savage Gaming thats a shame.

+ryushev2000 it does not have a place for it

+Aldion Sylkaj indeed

+Aldion Sylkaj lol

+Aidan Såge We are in love.

+Crylhound they have it in red

+Nikhil Ash Exhaust.

+GalaxyEffect You can install Windows by USB or external Dvd/CD. Best way is by USB, faster and easier.

+Aurahead If I cannot put a CD/DVD Drive in this case then can you tell me another way to install windows? I have Windows 7 Ultimate on a disc and I have the Product Code.

+Phil Carstensen There is no slot for 5.2" drive.

+Lucas Tomioka I only replaced fans at the back. I kept front fans and added top fans for radiator Corsair 100i. As for the song, look at the credit :)

I connected to the hub.

+Aurahead Did you connect CPU_FAN 3 pin to PWM FAN HUB or to motherboard CPU fan connector?

+Aurahead I did and still no power :( I know I'm doing something wrong but what I can't figure it out. could you possibly make a short tutorial on it if it doesn't get in the way of anything. A video tutorial would help me out a lot.

+Bush Snookie Did you connect fan hub molex cable to power suply unit?

+TheDerpyCacti Sorry this case do not support that. Only if you drill a big hole yourself :p

+Aurahead is there a way I can install an internal

+TheDerpyCacti Asus Dvd Drive is extern driver and not intern. Just connect it to USB port.

+SuperSwoopes I am not sure what you mean? Power button to boot up the system? Connect case power/reset cables to motherboard correct?

the fan is always down..:/

+darkmay200 I just ordered this case 2 days ago. Going to use a USB CD drive to install Windows 10

And blue for Asus, and g skill!

+Floris Kuck i burn discs a lot, i like the design enough so i will do a usb 3.0 drive, sigh. wish it was just included tho. i have 2 bluray drives.

Steam

oh

+Chaz Rooney He said in the video that you couldnt.

I have the MSI 970 so yes, it will no doubt

+Marty Harold I'm yet to take the protective plastic off the side of it because it isn't in its permanent place yet and is at risk of scratches so can't give a definite answer.

+Marty Harold Yes side panel window is heavily tinted like the Razer versions.

+manufan4eva is the window tinted like it looks like in pictures?

+Theodore Cruz Just got one myself!

already got mine! thanks!

+GRIZZLY_GUY //www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146216&ignorebbr=1

i think there is one know

+manufan4eva I don't understand why there's a solid black/black on the nzxt website but even the nzxt store itself does not sell it. feelsbadman

+GRIZZLY_GUY I guess you could get the razer edition and remove/turn off the leds

oh, sorry didnt understand what you were saying...

+Daniel Mislati yeah, hold your case

Is there any way other than buying anything, is there anything that i can find around the house?

+Daniel Mislati like holding a ball of tinfoil? not really. the whole point is to ground your body. your feet and your shoes don't conduct into the ground too well and don't dissipate small current like static well. so any static charge you have gets discharged through your fingertips and into the computer parts your handling, like when you touch a doorknob and get shocked. the wrist band grounds you to the wall outlet and dissipates your body's static charge into that or a nearby object instead of the computer parts. but you can also get the same effect by holding a large enough metal object to dissipate any built up charge, like the computer case or a metal table or something. usually when I'm working on my desktop, I don't even do that. as long as you weren't rubbing your socks on a carpet lately and the air isn't too dry, you should be fine. but if you want to be safe, ground yourself first

what about tin foil? i saw a guy do that

anti static wristband. it doesn't do anything. you can just hold the case while you build to get the same effect

yeah, but if you're using a 4570, you don't need more than the stock cooler

No, it won't. There's filtered vents at the bottom of the case where the psu is, so you would have a fan-down mounted power supply, and it won't be choked.

+AlphuS LF Haha yea i figured it out, thanks for the help though.

+Emmett Friedrichs Download os iso file then use rufus bootable device. pick either fat32 configuration for latest bios. The rest is google because I don't remember that much

Well, You don't have to if you don't want, that is just an option. I'm not exactly sure how you would install an os with a USB stick, so your best bet right now would be Google. There are many sites. Sorry for misunderstanding

+Nicholas Tran i know what an external optical drive is, it's just that i hoped you would'nt have to use one with a pc

An external one that plugs into the I/o of your motherboard via USB. Search up "external optical drives" and you''ll see what I mean.

+Nicholas Tran this case does not have space for an optical drive?!

Google it. Or if you want a optical drive, buy an external one

^ this . very well said 

Also you need to consider a few things. Even though a gaming notebook (Laptop) is lightweight, compact, and portable it is also very expensive, not as efficient as a desktop, and can overheat extremely easily. A desktop however is upgrade-able, very efficient (not over-heatable with the correct cooling systems) and is cheap if you build a custom PC. The slight advantage to getting a laptop is that it has a built-in monitor and keyboard when a desktop requires you to buy them separately, but the disadvantage to a laptop is that it is hard to replace a broken component. So I would for sure go for a desktop computer. But if your a "on-the-road" gamer, the best choice is a laptop. I hope my opinion helps :)

laptop if you need to travel , desktop if you want to game at home?

why do you want one just get an external optical drive

+Jordan Lea Yea, it will.

Yes, you might lose some drive cages though :)

+R20966 Nowhere :)

+Shane Samuel search it up on the web and youtube there are many examples

+Hidden Rath how?

+Bob Sagget Yeah, I kinda dont like the fact that this case doesnt have a optic drive, im just going to install one my self

+Hidden Rath I keep changing my mind so i went with a higher budget and i need to usre a dif case for a optic drive

+Bob Sagget same, well mines not costume, but i'm building it. The finishing price +Monitor, Keyboard, and mouse, its around $800

+Zachary Scoggins nice man thanks so much

Alright so I just build everything the other day and the 212 evo fits with plenty of room it doesn't touch the panel of the h440.

+Zachary Scoggins thanks

I actually got a 212 evo and I haven't put it in yet but I'll let you know if it fits

+link legrand but its so overused

i dont know, i find black and red more appealing...

+link legrand why

+Spodiesie black and red

Oh haha

+xCade _  its compatible with PC as well,  it's use USB, hehehe 

+Willex Thats for console gaming lol

+Senyuu™ Designs I didn't scroll down to see the comment.

+xIdentified, Your Lord and Savior ikr thats exactly what i was thinking.. honestly be more creative and make your own joke ch33ky

+Ch33kyMangozOnPC Way to steal someone elses joke faggot

+Ch33kyMangozOnPC Lol im okay thanks :) i will talk all i like

+SenyuuDesigns Yeah and I didn't ask you to talk so stfu

+Ch33kyMangozOnPC yeah someone already said that.....

+Eelsplayer55 i think so, but if you want o be shure get i7's perfer higher k versions or ok version and a good grapfix card

Okay

+Kenny Friest you can buy the OS in a flash drive on amazon

+Kenny Friest install the os off a flash drive

+Mantrousse (Pala) is my love and is my life. Your list is not showing in the part list. Double check the link. I might be able to help if you haven't pulled the trigger yet. Even still I might be able to help with some minor tweaks with what you chose.

+KOKA KCK no you need razer case 2.0 for gaming

+KOKA KCK I'm pretty sure that's it's entire focus xD

Absolutely not

I wouldn't call it "tacky". For being a gaming case it's still very sleek and basic yet good looking. Mine has a white LED. I chose H440 because the red/black is the best looking R/B case ever made IMO

+Kyle Gruber dude you're kidding right, I just bought an h440 and switched from my air 540!

+Kyle Gruber glad you had a pleasant experience. I did hear they fixed some of the main issues with the case so maybe thats why you dont have issues. it is a gorgeous case but i dont want to buy another just have it look nice again haha. it was on sale last year for 80$ around Christmas i might pick it up of it goes down to that price again and change the panels and the window

+Weech0 The window is great. I don't have any issues with finger prints on the window, nor the case itself. The only issue I have with it is how much noise comes through it. Even after installing sound dampening foam, which did help a lot, but it's still too loud for me. Also, the case is huge width wise. When I first got it, the width wasn't an issue, but after having it and staring at it for about a year, I wanted to switch to a standard width. I got the Black and Red H440. Loving how it looks so far, but I don't understand why they put the air flow grills on are on the top panel, facing the window side. Window side is most likely going to face you, so why direct the noise in that direction? You could always replace your window though, You just have to bend the metal brackets straight and remove the plastic panel and replace it.

im actually thinking of changing my h440 for an air 540. how's the 540s window quality? and does the case attract fingerprints? my h440s window is extremely scratched, and i have fingerprints that will not come off. i spent 130$ on this case only for it to look like crap after standard cleaning. i have the black one btw.

+Sean O'Brien Intake airflow is completely fine :)

The front air flow on the H440 is blocked a little, but I think it's still fine. The temps might go up by a few degrees, but that won't be much of a problem.

I still don t own this case but as u see in the video u can put one ssd on the back or in the caddy and the ssd there as well. if u do not have a fan on the floor then u can put this one caddy closer to the PSU.

+mrNks97where would i put my ssd and hdd tho?

+GanonSlayer Just put it to the front i d say.

+jeremy fahrni make sure to have positive air pressure?

+Varga Dániel I went with the R5 because of the optical drive space as well. I have a collection of Blu-Rays I still watch, always higher quality over streaming video in my area.

+Rez Yeah ik :D

GTX 960 is totally fine for gaming, i was just asking. This build is totally fine. :)Oh, yeah. Greetings from Denmark. :P

+Rez Yeah thanks. I dont really plan on doing hardcore gaming with intole core i7 processors and stuff, so i am gonna build this one cause it is reasonable for a 12 year old i guess to play some games and do school work aswell. Greetings from norway btw

Nice build! I'm from Denmark, so i can pretty much understand it all.I was about to ask you, why you are not getting the Define S instead. Then i found out it was a bundle. :)

+Miguel Quirijnen I will give the link to the build here you go https://www.komplett.no/product/793073/datautstyr/pc-i-deleroppgradering/pc-i-deler-intel/pc-i-deler-core-i5-4690k-gtx960.It is in norwegian though but just scroll a little down and you should see what is inside.

+PrexPvP what are you going to put in de R5?

Gonna build my first pc with the r5 case for christmas :D

+Rez I prefer the stock one's atm. May replace them by Noctua in the future

If you want silent fans, i would go for Be Quiet!'s Silent Wings 2. They are incredible! :)

+Miguel Quirijnen for music the stock fans are great, but I would add 1 more 140mm to the front if you run a hot cpu on air. the temps are a little warmer than a HAF type case. just a fair warning. (only like 2-10c hotter so no major issue for most people. ) 

I love it due to my fans I added it will never be completely silent,  BUT it is perfect when watching netflix on my 42" 3' above it ha ha ha cant hear it. but that is with a silent fan profile for me.  I will be replacing my CPU AIO with a 140mm version or a 280mm rad. and some custom fit fan shrouds. which will drop the rest of my noise by a lot. 

I am using the stock fans they work well. but I added a low RPM bottom fan to feed my GPU and have my Corsair H75 pulling air in from the front. No window

+yourmetalgod69 with or without window? Did you replace the stock fans? I'm also using it for music and editing :)

+yourmetalgod69 How do you like your R5 so far? I just bought one last night. I'm hoping it improves my Netflix experience because I don't always wear headphones and my current case fans are loud.

You'll love it :) enjoy the new R5!
