Premium class cases are often overlooked by buyers. Some are deterred by the price, others do not see the advantages of extensive functionality. Therefore, it is not surprising that the NZXT H700i case gathers dust on display shelves in specialized stores. People simply do not realize that this is a find that will serve forever. And not just serve, but extend the life of all the computer hardware installed inside.
And the reason for this is reviews where authors share impressions of colorful lighting, adjustable fan speed, and other embellishments. A potential buyer will understand – LED backlighting, coolers, and control boards can be purchased in Chinese stores. And there is no point in buying a case for 200 US dollars.
NZXT H700i Case: Advantages
First and foremost, it is a Full Tower format system unit. Such a case supports motherboards of any size, including E-ATX. Also, the case can accommodate any gaming graphics card, even with an aftermarket cooling system. That is, when buying hardware, the future owner does not need to measure the internal dimensions of the system unit with a ruler to understand whether a part will fit or not.
The thoughtful design of the NZXT H700i case ensures effective cooling of all installed components. The concept of “overheating” is completely absent for premium class products. For airflow, there are plenty of fans. There are special niches for cable management behind the power supply.
Planning to install liquid cooling – everything is provided in the case. Use the correct overclocking of hardware and enjoy unlimited power. Everything is calculated and prepared.
Full access to any part of the construction without removing computer components simplifies cleaning the system unit from dust. A can of compressed air, vacuum cleaner, brush – any cleaning method is suitable for the NZXT H700i case.
Installing hard drives is a separate story. Users have been switching from 3.5-inch HDDs to 2.5-inch SSDs for over 3 years. Budget case manufacturers do not notice this and continue to produce systems with cages for 3.5-inch screws and DVD-Rom drives. Questions arise – how to secure an SSD in the case if there is no adapter? With the NZXT H700i, such problems do not exist. There is a removable HDD cage and plenty of mounts for SSDs.
And it is not necessary to spend extra on power supply units with detachable cables. This is a new trend among buyers trying to save space inside the system unit. The niche for mounting the PSU is moved to the other side of the case. For excess cables, there is a special compartment that is even ventilated. Why overpay for a power supply if it is better to invest in a good Full Tower case?
Nice Extras of the NZXT H700i
The lighting and fan control panel truly deserves special attention. Replacing it with Chinese hardware is not possible. The manufacturer NZXT was smarter – they adapted the control of the hardware to the operating system. There is a wonderful app that allows managing the case from any OS. That’s cool.
Numerous built-in sensors monitor all installed hardware. Some take data from BIOS. As a result, the user gets a remote control for the entire system unit. Overclocking enthusiasts will dance, and overclockers used to doing everything themselves with a soldering iron will be disappointed.
Quiet mode. Someone might say that this is impossible. The NZXT H700i case can really create silence in the room where it is installed. First, the thick-walled construction (galvanized steel with a galvanic coating and tempered glass) dampens vibrations and noise. Second, the fan control panel allows for a silent mode. The main thing is to install a good CPU cooler and buy a normal gaming graphics card (capable of 0 dB in idle).
The case is very cool and worth its money. Such a product is bought once and for all. And let friends, relatives, or acquaintances shout that this is an improper investment. They are wrong. The manufacturer NZXT has thought everything through. In the next 20-30 years, home users will not have quantum computers that fit in a matchbox. Motherboards of the same formats as graphics cards will remain. Only sockets will change. And the case will be guaranteed to be compatible with all hardware.
