WE WERE MORE than impressed by NZXT’s H7 range of cases last year, and after using and reviewing all three of them, the Flow variant was the one that took our fancy. It offered the best bang for your buck, maximizing the potential performance of your build through its improved airflow while still retaining NZXT’s clean design aesthetic. But does the same apply to the slightly larger dualchamber H9 mid-tower cases? At the time of writing, there isn’t a standard edition of the H9, just the H9 Flow we have here and the more expensive range-topping H9 Elite. The latter costs $80 more, so on paper, the Flow represents the better value for money, but is this the, er, case in the real world?
Compared with the H7 models we’ve already reviewed, the H9 has a deeper, wider, and taller design and also features two glass panels, which results in a seethrough corner. This is one of the H9’s stand-out features, differentiating it from the other models and setting it apart at the top of the tree. It’s a great way to see all of your internals without the disruption from the typical metal corner you’d get on most cases. On the flip side, it’s an extra incentive to get your cable management in check because you’ll see every untidy power and SATA lead. In the black variant, NZXT uses tinted tempered glass, which suits the sleek design, whereas the white model features clear glass.
