I'm not sure why your view count is low your delivery is smooth, easily understandable, and delivers a lot of useful relatable info thanks for the hard work it helps me decide on whether to get this casing
Just built into this case, I moved from a prebuilt and I can say this case is 🔥: -Ryzen 7 5800x -Kraken Z53 (black) -Rtx 3060 (looking to buy a 40 series Gpu) -Corsair 850x psu -Corsair 120mm exhaust fan -Corsair LPX ddr4 16x2 -Western digital 256 SSD -Samsung 980 pro SSD -Msi b550 tomahawk max wifi
I just found one for $80. Same price as my current 510 case (old one with solid front). It works fine, but I wanted to get a little flashy. Thank you for helping me make up my mind.
Hey Robey, thanks for this video! Very insightful review. Not sure if you can answer this, but how did you get the RGB on your Ram to sync up with all other lights? Are you using NZXT's Cam software or Gigabyte's RGB software to tune the lighting?
This case is sexy AF, literally just made the purchase.. It's my favorite of all the cases I've looked at.. H5 Elite > HYTE Y60 > Pop Air > Lian Li o11
@@realxan1 if you want a nicer looking case then get the elite.the temp difference isnt even that much.about 2-3 degrees for me.i also returned the h5 flow and got the elite.
@@megilino7789 actually i ended up keeping the h5 flow lol.its temps arent too different at the beginning but will start to suffer once that small filter on the elite starts to get some dust on it.thats what people dont realize.
I have the black version and couls not be happier. Do not get why ppl are so picky, the temps are so far from any concerning temps I think it is worth sacrificing 5c for the esthetics.
i love the looks but i still need the Hard drive bays. theyre very still viable in terms of raw storage to price. i wish they give us the choice to cover up the bottom fan intake and add back the bays.
why the hell would you close the bottom fan?its not doing any harm. if anything they should included back plates with holes in them incase you wanted to switch between the two
just had my old 5800x3d system die was not sure what was wrong with it so i bought a new amd 7700xt combo and ram from microcenter and got this case per your recomendation really like it pleanty of room for my 4080. the only thing is i have a hx1200 power supply to it took some work to get it in there but it works great. thermals are very good for the all air build. only downside is it only has 2 fans stock but i had 3 140s so i installed 2 in the front and one in the top for exaust even though it only has knockout for a 120 but there is alot of space up there. keep up the great content
Be mindful of motherboard placement and rear RGB fan placement. You will block the view of say an Asus x570 gaming-e Wifi II like I just built for my son. Not happy, and the i/o shield should have been offset to accommodate a rear rgb fan. Disappointed virtually no fan will fit in the rear position.
depends on what part you focus the cooling… Want cool CPU temps? -> 280 front mount (trade off: GPU gets warmer air from radiators) Want cool GPU temps? -> 240 top mount (trade off: CPU radiator gets warmer air from the GPU) keep in mind: rad in the front significantly limits gpu length compatibility
Replacing the drive bay with the angled fan was a very good decision. Most people have moved away from 3.5" hard drives. You can just pick up a large external one and use a USB 3 port. The black one is on sale for $90. I grabbed one for a future build. I also built a box a few months ago for a friend with the H510 elite, and the temps with a 3070 have been completely fine. NZXT tossed in another fan on the top and that seems to do enough, but I think for the 4090 and other true high performing 4K gaming cards that bottom fan is a must, so good on NZXT!
It all depends on which processor you are going to use, it works fine for me like this, since my AIO is 280mm. that you can't put it on top, and no, I don't plan on forcing screws where there isn't a place for them.
If you see the data there is no big change in temperatures between open and closed case, now take into account the hardware you are using. They are 2 of the hottest components on the market and neither reaches a critical temperature. In my opinion it is a good cabinet, at an Elite price with its flaws but great virtues.
Depends on your build, this is still an excellent case for a snug fit mid size build and at the price it's the same if not better than the same sized cases now.
this is a case design to be compact and for only gaming.thats why it can only support a 240 AIO. you dont need anything more for just gaming.now obviously if your doing some cpu heavy stuff with like a 13700k or 139000k then you would need a bigger cooler so this case wouldnt work
h510 a HOT box? WOW My h500 is actually quite OKAY even though I only clean it once in every 6 mos My only concern is the price it's kinda expensive given only having 2 fans the elite should have 3

That's a pretty hot case ngl.
- Also this friday my final parts are coming so I can build my first ever PC. :D
Hot as in temps or sexy hot? 💀
@@jstcabbages4364 sexy hot ofc
I'm most impressed that they finally upgraded the top to accomodate 2x120/240.
This case is sexy AF, literally just made the purchase.. It's my favorite of all the cases I've looked at.. H5 Elite > HYTE Y60 > Pop Air > Lian Li o11
Est ce que on peut changer la couleur des ventilateurs de devant ? Mettre seulement en rouge par exemple ?
Great production! 14k subs don’t do this justice.
Been using this case for 1 month

@@realxan1 if you want a nicer looking case then get the elite.the temp difference isnt even that much.about 2-3 degrees for me.i also returned the h5 flow and got the elite.

Snagged this for 50 on eBay, never been happier.
Looks nice! I'm about to use this to upgrade from my R8!

My Core i3 and RX600 are cold in this case.
@Jose Avila Tahuilan yep, plus gpu temps in my case are also really good idk I love mine.

@@Usernamebreh personal preference obviously. you don't NEED the bottom fans either.
Only thing I wish that it came with a fan controller but I just got this case and I love it
how reset PC with this case? No reset button
Hey, thanks for review, i just have to ask, is it good for 360x120 AIO ? or only 240/280 ? Thanks
Both work. 360 is always best.
Can the front mounted radiator be installed with hoses down and the fans in front of the radiator (facing out)?
Also, great review!
Yes, but it depends on your AIO how long the hoses are, or if it is customized without a doubt.
In Italy is 180 euros on Amazon (almost 210 US dollars), why in europe we have so high prices than USA?
This is where the motherboard fits in. Asus tuf gaming z790-plus wifi ?
Nice bought this very nice im happy very easy to use.
Please someone tell me how loud is this case? I keep seeing reviews complaining about fan noise
Just a question. This would have no trouble fitting the gigabyte 6700xt eagle 12g correct?
Can you order in us Dollars if you live in the UK? Would it be cheaper doing that?

Hello. With the 4080 are you able to fit radiator on front? Or did you need to put it on top? Also which model 4080 did you use? Thanks
Hey, Looking to build an i7 13700 in the H5 elite. Will a 240mm aio on the top be enough? I dont plan to overclock it
This compass is visited by the video card 4080 suprem x?
Can you tell me the name of the fans that come with the case already? Are they good At 900 rpm?
Man I want this case so bad
What brand are the Red & White cables (candy cane) for the power supply? They look awesome! I got this case and love it!
Asiahorse he said it at the beginning
what about the standard usb header you didn't mention that
the down side is you can not use z63 on top ecause it doesn't support 280mm
Good airflow ?
Question, do the stock fans light up ?
Yes they are included
asia horse cables any good? reliable?
is it possible to dimm the radiator light? ins kinda bright
Will my xfx 7900 xtx fit in this case ?
Sweet video
would this be good for a rtx 4080 and a 5 7600x
Is this prebuilt when you buy it or do you have to manually build it??
bruh

Not happy, and the i/o shield should have been offset to accommodate a rear rgb fan. Disappointed virtually no fan will fit in the rear position.
What is better, a 240 at the top or a 280 at the front in terms of temperature and performance?
depends on what part you focus the cooling…
Want cool CPU temps? -> 280 front mount (trade off: GPU gets warmer air from radiators)
Want cool GPU temps? -> 240 top mount (trade off: CPU radiator gets warmer air from the GPU)
keep in mind: rad in the front significantly limits gpu length compatibility
Not bad temps for the front i guess
Which video card did you use, make and model? or it is a cover?
Thanks in advace.

My fans are lighting up and I'm not figuring out why :/
2:15 🤘🏿💯
is it possible to mount the radiator infornt intake ? will that improve the performance or has anyone tested this yet ?
and why would you do that? that would only bring in hot air into the case
@@Usernamebreh nvm I’m dumb 🙃 got my pc today gonna build it with custom h5 front panel and put the radiator up top
It all depends on which processor you are going to use, it works fine for me like this, since my AIO is 280mm. that you can't put it on top, and no, I don't plan on forcing screws where there isn't a place for them.
is the H5 flow not much better for airflow? or do the better fans on the elite make up for that

Just get a 216
I picked it up for 109 pounds
i liked the 510 elite, but this just looks odd to me... Sorry NZXT, but try again...
With today hardware I really don't get why someone will pick this case... we have to many better cases these days
Depends on your build, this is still an excellent case for a snug fit mid size build and at the price it's the same if not better than the same sized cases now.
Lancool 216 is cheaper and better temps
