Reviews around room (5.00 of 5)

  • It has excellent cable management, ample room, LED’s already run for you, a fan controller smart device and even
  • Not a con for me, because I personally prefer the room for additional intake fans.-CAM software that integrates with the Smart
  • The LED controller is a nice touch but not much room for expansion after all the goodies are in place.
  • Has enough room to mount 3 120mm fans or 2 140mm fans on the top as well

Reviews around look (5.00 of 5)

  • , I bought a corsair 450 sfx fully modular psu for this build fair warning you will need cable extensions for the 24 pin and 8 pin if you want to have them properly routed for a clean look
  • I can have both a good looking case at a reasonable price with the h500i.
  • A nice looking (and solid) case that I just don't think is worth the headache.
  • This is overall a very beautiful looking case, aesthetically, this is one of the best looking cases out there

Reviews around cable management (4.66 of 5)

  • Excellent cable management options with this case...especially considering the ITX size.
  • Took a while to figure out how to fit everything in and the cable management is a little tricky since there is little space on the other side
  • Pros:•The cable management is superb having in mind it is a mini itx case
  • Looks great, excellent cable management capabilities, and worth the cost
  • Now the keys of this case it looks awesome cable management is great the one thing that they do not tell you

Reviews around build (4.49 of 5)

  • If you don't mind revising and tailoring your build to work with your case, this is a great option.
  • Is a pretty good build case everything was neat when opening

Reviews around light (4.40 of 5)

  • The lights it comes with are pretty good and the fan hub in the back is fine for managing the case fans
  • I would prefer some type of shroud around the LED lights so they're not as
  • For the $200 that this case costs, the smart device should be adequate for the operation of both the fans and LED lights
  • I fell in love!•Room for rads and moar fans!Cons:•The tempered glass is not as strong as I
  • From its smart fan hub to LED lighting to cable management solutions, this case was an absolute pleasure to build in

Reviews around product (4.37 of 5)

  • HUE2 released this month and fixes the problem of one accessory type per channel, but unsurprisingly the smart device doesn't currently support HUE2 products
  • The Smart Device is this product's claim to fame, and it works well

Reviews around fan (3.86 of 5)

  • Beautiful case, I like the integrated fan and LED functions, not really caring about the noise reduction AI stuff
  • From its smart fan hub to LED lighting to cable management solutions, this case was an absolute pleasure to build in
  • Once you flip the top fan bracket to give yourself room for the top radiator you will literally only have about 1/4" to the top panel
  • Sturdy yet beautiful!•It has that funny fan/LED strip controller to go with the HUE+
  • CAM is lacking though, really not a fan of the smart device

Reviews around design (3.86 of 5)

  • 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
  • The bottom part of the chassis being sectioned off was a genius design choice, because I can stuff cables in there without caring what it looks like, and often contains the most cables if you don't have a modular PSU.I was able to put my Kraken cooler, and my 1080 ti Hybrid radiator easily within the case, with plenty of room
  • I fell in love!•Room for rads and moar fans!Cons:•The tempered glass is not as strong as I
  • +Beautiful and compact design.-The front panel IO is not aligned-The front dust filter can't close up if you want to have Kraken X62 280mm with push and pull config-The "smart device" is not worthwhile since it only has one LED channel and you have to buy a Hue+ in order to have both LED strips and Aer RGB fans to work
  • I fell in love!•Room for rads and moar fans!Cons:•The tempered glass is not as strong as I

Reviews around strip (3.47 of 5)

  • If you want to use other brands, then I would recommend getting the H500 and installing your own LED strips.
  • To the two LED strips in the case to the tempered glass window
  • Unfortunately the included LED strip can't sit on the same channel as NZXT's premium AER RGB fans, so you have to pick one or the other.
  • I ended up removing their lighting strips and installing an aftermarket hard strip that I bought here on Amazon
  • Not a huge issue though.-Pre-installed LED strip only had 3 working LEDs

Reviews around quality (3.44 of 5)

  • I fell in love!•Room for rads and moar fans!Cons:•The tempered glass is not as strong as I
  • This case cost a lot of money for something that has such a poor quality control
  • Poor quality control at the manufacturer, and this is not something I expect from NZXT
  • It looks stunning, the build quality is excellent, features are plentiful, and it was extremely easy to build in
  • It feels very solid and is definitely a good quality case!Pros:- Very clean, elegant design that makes a great show piece as well as a great every day use computer.- Really easy to work in
