Cannot decide...350D or H440?

Here's the deal. My current case is the CM Scout and I need a new case, mostly to downsize into a micro atx build...with a Corsair 350D case since I never really use dual GPUs or use multiple hard drives. I was THIS close of getting it...then the H440 was released. Such a gorgeous and modern looking case. I was thinking maybe I should pick up the H440 instead. My requirements for my next case are really just to be quieter than my current case...which is a bit loud in my opinion. I feel that if I go with the H440 I'll be kinda..."wasting" the extra space on the mobo and case. On the other hand...it looks so good and it *is* "silent" Would a 350D with quiet edition fans or Noctuas be as quiet as the H440? I'll also be watercooling my CPU and GPU in the near future, so hopefully that will also help lower the noise if I pick my parts correctly. Finally...I will never really use dual GPUs, never been into that. I really cannot decide on either of these cases.
 
Better watercooling options with the H440. H440 is more silent but with a window it won't matter much anyways(i have an R4 and the difference is noticeable if i switch around the side panels). The 350D is a good case too but IMO it would be a more enjoyable experience to use the H440 overall for watercooling as you have more room to work with.

Its down to personal choice really. If it was me a H440 would be my next case. Also with watercooling it really doesn't matter which case is more quiet as if you do it properly they will both be silent anyways.
