NZXT H440 Case Review

I'm rather new to this forum so have to ask what is the reason for it? Is it quality or something else? From the overall design I would put them in the same league with CM and NZXT.
My 7+ year old TT Armor still looks as good(or bad to some ppl I quess) as the day I bought it, from the outside at least. Interior design and features can't even be compared to today's cases, even the cheap ones.

Thermaltake = n0000b

You buy thermaltake - realise its shit and designs stolen from other brands and THEN you buy a proper enthusiast product to replace.

horrible design flaws, tacky (that's where thermaltacky comes from), usually pretty darn ugly and not even well priced. no thank you.
 
I used to have the Armor and think it's such an ugly thing, those stupid flaps over the front. Not everything with flaps are nice.
 
Didn't know you guys were such an elitist jerks:p
Reason I mentioned TT is because Chadwokie asked for a case with removable optical bays and when I was watching some videos from CES 2014 I noticed some interesting features on new TT cases.
Fully removable HDD cages and optical bays and the option to install 2 of those HDD cages in the back. That is something I haven't see before. It also has some impressive water cooling options for that case size.

Elitist? Hmmmm Realist? Entitled to an opinion?

Thermaltakes are learner cases, you buy one. Learn. Then evolve and buy something better once you know better.

All their cases are cheap and look nasty.

Quite true, I had mine as my second ever case, my main one really, I was a wee 14 year old at the time, don't get me wrong I do still keep my eye out on TT but it seems they haven't made nothing good ever.

The Armor, flaps for no reason, green and purple PCI brackets, hard drive cage although removable stuck in the top of the roof at the back, dust magnet. Just crap really.

Whats up with the whole Thermaltake situation?

I am really surprised that a business leader uses this sort of language. Most business owners would never talk about others like that as it in most cases shows very poor business judgement and general lack of people skills.
I can only assume that Tom has had some serious gripes with Thermaltake in the past. Still holds grudge with a vengeance and sure as hell isnt afraid of getting dragged to the courts.

We need to hear the full story Tom, be thorougly explained why we never ever should buy a Thermaltake product.

you want an explanation for why you shouldn't buy an alienware pc as well?

i fail to see how that is a legal matter? Isn't that just Tom expressing his opinion?

To sum the whole thermaltake situation up: poor build quality, high prices, unoriginal design.

tbh the main reason tom is able to make reviewing computer hardware is the fact he does speak like this.... sure it may be blunt, wild like a untamed beast (lol no idea where i was going with that)..... but hes honest and genuine and doesnt come across as a money grabbing ass hat.

just my opinion....but im much more likely to believe the review of some one who isnt afraid of upsetting the people hes reviewing.

Its also the biggest reason i wont ever value a review from a retailer as they naturally are trying to sell you the product

The sad thing about this whole TT trashing is that is started with me answering your post a few pages back about removable optical bays. All I wanted to point out is there are some nice solutions out there, which I would like to see on other case designs(NZXT H series included), but everyone just ignored it because I mentioned it's from TT. Not sure how or why it made such a nasty turn leading nowhere :(

Apologies for it going out of hand :(. I agree it is a smart feature but I'm sure they aren't the only ones to do it. I'd imagine Lian Li or Silverstone do it as well tbh, they're pretty good at thinking a bit differently ^_^

No worries mate.
TT trashing has beeing going on for quite some time at OC3D and it seems noone here is willing to give the company the benefit of a doubt they could actually improve or make a decent product or feature.

nothing worth looking at for a second chance.
