The case is fine, looks decent. But i just hate how much empty space there is inside. I don't want super compact cases but i want them to look somewhat practical. This case just has too much empty space for me.
But you can use the space for a watercooling reservoir. It's not wasted IMO. What IS wasted space is when the PSU shroud spans the entire length of the case and yet still only has HDD mounts under it.
Absolute waste of space and inefficiency. Lian Li has better case executions than this that accomplish the same thing. Also, no BTF… NZXT doesn’t care anymore.
I got an H6 Flow and it was a solid choice. The entire case is filled. I love the look of it. It has lots of room for all the cables in the back and can even hold my massive XFX 7900XTX with the support bracket that extends its length about another inch. Definitely check out the H6 Flow.
People complaining about empty space but I like it. You can do so much with it when customizing, I just see a lot of possibilities. Could water cool it, add figures or style it, put small screen in there, idk it's up to you. But I love the space even if it's empty.
@@kristoffer3000 that open space is unnecessary. the cooling it adds im sure will be negligible and the space could be reduced and still offer essentially the same cooling.
I've always liked bottom-to-top cooling in my cases as I just think it looks cleaner and puts more emphasis on cooling the GPU. Had a Silverstone FT-02 years ago with 3 180mm fans blowing upward (and a vertical 'hung' GPU), which was a fantastic case. Now running a CoolerMaster SL600 with 2 200mm fans blowing upward and the GPU vertical. Good to see NZXT experimenting a bit as well.
its a clean case but that empty space kicks me out... it makes this case larger and i hate big pieces of metal that needs an extra table if u want look at it. but the front looks rly good and i like the fact that u can slap everything into that bracket. its not a case i would personaly buy.
People are complaining about wasted space on this case. But I personally think that this case is more suitable for underdesk placing. The height is convenient enough to turn on the PC while sitting.
Honestly, that lower empty space, I think it would be pretty cool if someone decides to make a lcd screen that you ca attach there. It would honestly be a pretty good use of the space.
If Deepcool didn't get sanctioned you'd love the Deepcool Morpheus then, I got one earlier this year and it can hold up to 6 200mm fans (top, front and bottom) AND 3 side mounted 140mm fans
Why not do 140 or 180 mm fans in front. You can get a fractal torrent instead. Much more air flow with 2x180 and you also get 3 bottom intake fans. With PSU mounted above mobo.
@@sliphere011 if NZXT had bothered to do the obvious, they would have the leading airflow case by the numbers. If fractal adopted the PSU orientation and bottom fan mount, it would be an instant buy.

Too big...shrink the depth so it fits 2x120 in bottom and top so it more tall than deep. Completely agree that a custom gpu bracket to put the gpu on the fans vertically would be awesome. If NZXT made a customer mobo with a full x16 slot on the bottom to accommodate such gpu bracket and leave open the rest of the pcie slots to fight in their normal position would be absolutely cherry.

@@Ex14they're saying the D41 case nears the mATX case size just enough to fit ATX motherboards but not too size restrictive to where ATX motherboards don't fit.
@@quakesilver That's exactly why I bought it as well. The case with some Antec storm 30mm fans makes for a great airflow case for a low price. Antec storm 120/140 30mm fans are 11 to 13 bucks. 30+ bucks a fan, like what a lot of tech tubers show off, is bananas.
This is a breath of fresh air (pun intended). I would suggest moving the stock fans to the bottom and use the front for either an AIO or add 140mm fans there. Then balance the airflow by adding exhaust fans at the top, if needed.

I love the design that allows a dual chamber design without the extra width, excellent use of space. However I would love to see this design smaller. Maybe limit the case to SFX PSUs and the drop the front and bottom to only two 120mm fans and then limit to MATX motherboards. You could reduce the size quite a bit and not harm the air flow much while keeping the same basic layout.
It's nice to see a case capable of proper convection airflow, but as others have said, it's too big. And it's still the same old component layout.

Have the OG version of this case. Easy to build in, stays cool and looks clean. Big mesh allows a lot of dust into the chassis. Might try the Lian Li Lancool 216 next.
I like this NZXT case. I have two builds to do in the next six months, so I might use this NZXT for one of them. I have two of the older NZXT H440 cases for my X99 systems that I like. The two new builds are an AMD R9-7900X/9900X (I still have to see the 9000 release), ASUS X670E, 192GB, RTX3080, and for this I already bought a Lian Li Lancool III Mesh. The second build is when the Intel Battlemage is released, if Intel doesn't drop it. For that I will probably go with an older X299 10900X build as I don't trust Intel 14th/15th Gen CPUs.
I have the NZXT KRAKEN ELITE 360 RGB at the top of the NZXT H7 FLOW RGB with the three Fans that came with the Case. I have NZXT F360 RGB Core and Single NZXT F120 RGB Core both 120mm. I haven't yet installed the single F120 or the F360 yet. Liquid Temp 31 degreas and CPU is about the same. Now we need NZXT H7 FLOW BTF RGB.
dark base 701 is HUGE for a "mid tower" as well. it doesnt have an open psu area like trhat but it has a small interchanging shroud that has space for 2 fans lined up with the psu, and it directs the air right to the gpu. very nice check it out.
I miss the psu at the top of the case with non modular mustard and ketchup power cables, and you had to jam all the excess cables in the empty 5 1/2 inch drive bay above your dvd drive. Miss those days.. but hey i had a fan on my side panel cooling my gpu ! Lol
This case is actually perfect for my dual 3090 setup that I also use to game. I'm also not sure there's another case that is as slim and shallow (front-back depth) that has bottom-mounted fans -- this case fits in between the legs of my table with 1mm to spare.
An option to add 6 or more 3.5" bays would be nice to use for a homebuilt NAS. It is a clever and nice looking case, but too large to lack those options.
If I didn’t already have the original H7 Flow then I would love this case. Also, the deltas just don’t make it worthwhile since I just zip tied two fans to the PSU shroud anyway and my entire setup is all black with no RGB. Just used some spacers so they weren’t directly against the shroud so the fans could actually get fresh air to the GPU.
i don't get how sfx hasn't become the new default. imagine how much less space we would have in a case like this with sfx-only. also, The "space for psu+HDDs" really needs to be rethough, and the itx space has a lot of ideas for that
You know the saying the bigger the better where small always performs the same if not better *sigh*. I have moved to sfx and it it amazing.. Deepcool CH160 c:
i love to have my fish tank on my desk, if I want to hide my pc there are so many options better than cramming shit into very small poorly cooled enclosures
Iver never used NZXT products but Im considering a mobo from them next time. All four major mobo manufacturers have let me down so I might as well try something new next. Yes I know they're mostly Asrock boards.
dust filters are overrated anyway :p just try to minimize your dust sources (something you should be doing anyway) and keep the pressure positive in your case, and you'll be fine. I've been keeping my H6 squeaky clean for months this way - compared to my negative pressure H510 Elite that was an absolute horror show in comparison.
@@srn7254 are there any dust filters specifically for the h6 flow that you know off? I have the case and it stays fairly clean but i just hate dust too much and thought of getting a filter
Tbh I prefer older version which I have. Old H7 Flow has amazing cooling performance and classic look. Also about lower mounting radiator. Of course you can mount it,I don’t know why did you said you can’t. When you are doing custom waterloop,you install first 3x fans with longs screws from the bottom,even 30mm ones if you want if rad has some bigger points on the ends,and later other fans on upper side of the rad for push pull config. There are already videos on UA-cam of this kind of configurations. For standard build this case is just ugly and empty,and for me NZXT didn’t used fully potential of it. That’s why it’s the best for custom builders especially for custom water loops.
00:40: NZXT's design removes power supply shroud, enhancing GPU cooling and case airflow. 02:00: The H7 Flow features a sleek design but has confusing naming conventions. 04:30: Stock fans underperform; larger fans could improve airflow significantly. 06:50: Interior layout is well-organized, but lacks support for vertical GPU mounting. 09:00: Priced at $129, the H7 Flow offers aesthetic appeal but misses optimization opportunities.
Just rotate the MB, with SIM facing down. Two chambers. Just leave about 80mm for cabling from SIM. Solves about everything. Lets see if anyone is listening.
Thanks for the video! Seems like a cool 🥶case (see what I did there?). In my humble opinion, for the best price-to-performance airflow case, and without changing the stock fans, go with the Montech Air 903/Max. Can’t be beat. Keep up the great work guys! 🤙
We need someone to make a new PSU standard. Like can we need to get those brick looking ones that go in servers? ATX PSUs just take up to much unnecessary space.
@@vongdong10 a square form factor supports a larger fan diameter. Server PSUs are designed for rack density, and thus small fans leading to significantly louder operation.
Just got this case and I LOVE it. Many don't like the empty space but I'm thinking ahead, just starting this new build. I've got plans for that empty space- perfect spot for some kind of screen on that bottom area. No filter screens is kind of annoying but I'm just going to make my own- not too hard to do. I moved the front 3 fans from the front to the back of the bracket to help fill out some of that front space and I think it looks a lot better that way + it puts the fans closer to components. I don't have enough matching fans to fill it out so I kept the front NZXT fans but I've got x3 120s White Corsair fans on the bottom, x2 of the same on the top and a 140 Corsair fan on the back. For now just Solid Red-Orange/Sunset type Solid Colors. Man, for a new build on a budget repurposing parts from my old build, it looks pretty nice. Love this case, easiest case I've built in (I've build 20-30 PCs) I guess I could add I'm running a 12900k with a Peerless Assassin Air Cooler and I did a full day of gaming yesterday and the hottest core on the cpu in the past 2 days is 68c (i've been recording temps the whole time). The average temps on P-cores is around 62c and the e-cores- all are somehow equal @ 47c.
Great concept but the execution falls flat. It’s huge and empty! So much opportunity to optimize that space or shrink it down without loosing the additional cooling capacity.
Honestly, I prefer a PSU shroud. I don't think they are ugly at all. This case is too tall to have the shroud omitted. It just looks really odd with all of that unused space down there. Not the case for me.
Can you get it without a glass side? I did pretty insides 3 years ago and realised it's a waste of time and money. Easy build, hide it away. That's where it's at for me.
The case is fine, looks decent. But i just hate how much empty space there is inside. I don't want super compact cases but i want them to look somewhat practical. This case just has too much empty space for me.
Agreed
But you can use the space for a watercooling reservoir. It's not wasted IMO. What IS wasted space is when the PSU shroud spans the entire length of the case and yet still only has HDD mounts under it.
More room to breath though. If you want it compact I‘d go for a mini itx case tbh.
Great for a thick radiator and decoratives.
Absolute waste of space and inefficiency. Lian Li has better case executions than this that accomplish the same thing. Also, no BTF… NZXT doesn’t care anymore.
now make one thats actually a midtower and ill buy it.

@@ssanc6isn't their entire h5 line just that? Maybe they can make h5 flow 2024 without the psu shroud.

@@vongdong10 in non-square form factors that are slim and rectangular? The component and thermal requirements would shift dramatically.
@@abb0tt there's those 500w GaN bricks for sff builds by HDPLEX
@@vongdong10 500w could not power the components in my case.
Nice case, but it's so much space...
Doesn't look good, and it's huge. If you want space why not get a dual chamber?
The case looks okay but there’s so much empty space. Also the bottom gap is great for dust build up if you don’t clean properly.
It drives me crazy there are so many reviews of this case and not a single one review it with an AIO.
Will there be a review for the new H5 Flow?
🤓
can I have a free n7 b650e white please
big case, small fans...why? no thanks.
😂
I need a matx version of this!
Next step is to have the MB, PSU, and the case all together. No wires. Minus the gpu and any peripherals. Still interchange though
Looks beautiful indeed but uselessly huge
I don't understand. Every 'fish-tank' case since Lian Li O11 is configured like this. What's the big deal?
Thats one big ass case
Just got this case and I LOVE it. Many don't like the empty space but I'm thinking ahead, just starting this new build. I've got plans for that empty space- perfect spot for some kind of screen on that bottom area. No filter screens is kind of annoying but I'm just going to make my own- not too hard to do.
I moved the front 3 fans from the front to the back of the bracket to help fill out some of that front space and I think it looks a lot better that way + it puts the fans closer to components. I don't have enough matching fans to fill it out so I kept the front NZXT fans but I've got x3 120s White Corsair fans on the bottom, x2 of the same on the top and a 140 Corsair fan on the back. For now just Solid Red-Orange/Sunset type Solid Colors. Man, for a new build on a budget repurposing parts from my old build, it looks pretty nice. Love this case, easiest case I've built in (I've build 20-30 PCs)
I guess I could add I'm running a 12900k with a Peerless Assassin Air Cooler and I did a full day of gaming yesterday and the hottest core on the cpu in the past 2 days is 68c (i've been recording temps the whole time). The average temps on P-cores is around 62c and the e-cores- all are somehow equal @ 47c.
Great concept but the execution falls flat. It’s huge and empty! So much opportunity to optimize that space or shrink it down without loosing the additional cooling capacity.
this would look nice
with hardline tubing inside
it would be good to get some mesh on bottom coolers, as if you drop something inside... well everything is happen
For the GPU test should have looked at hot spot temps.
This looks great but it really needs a GPU Mount. Can't even put a GPU bracket with the way it is.
My Fractal Torrent also has an open intake on the bottom with 3x140mm fans blowing air right at the GPU...
Honestly, I prefer a PSU shroud. I don't think they are ugly at all. This case is too tall to have the shroud omitted. It just looks really odd with all of that unused space down there. Not the case for me.
This looks like you built mATX board on ATX case
Legend says the paint still comes off the case when you screw or unscrew. Either way, you're screwed.
2:16 but please ignore the large gap on the side
As it features seven expansion slots, this is technically a mid tower. NZXT cannot help that term being as imprecise as it is ^^
Like the design. Still curious between this and the Sup 01 from Lian Li.
Hey Dude please help me Logitech G335 vs Razer black shark V2x which one should I buy for my ipad please Help me
I really wonder how the air flows from the front and the bottom interact... Would be fun to see it with smoke
Go watch the video from Matt Lee then.
Looks empty, and front looks empty too unless using 140's
Can you get it without a glass side? I did pretty insides 3 years ago and realised it's a waste of time and money. Easy build, hide it away. That's where it's at for me.
Montech has the same fans below the gpu on their HS-01 Case
I could almost curl up in to a ball in there….. WITH a full system already installed 😳
Still think I´ll wait for Lian Li LANCOOL 207
i guess custom loopers can do a push pull thick rad at the empty bottom
