If you watch the video I actually answer about AIO's very clearly dude.
Push Pull on the H100i doesnt really make much difference either - especially as this is a case designed to be used with quiet components

I asked a question on your actual video on youtube, then realized I might be more likely to get an answer here. Need to know whether or not NZXT is yanking my chain or not about the offset up top.
Here is a copy/paste:
Hey, TTL. Great review as usual. I do have a quick question though. I briefly spoke with NZXT on their facebook page, and according to them another reviewer got a 45mm thick rad up in the top. They also mentioned that the Corsair H105, even with it's thicker 38mm rad, will also fit in the top. Does this mesh with what you saw while working in the case?

Yeah, i really don't like red on a case...
I hope for a full black version, but I think a black/gunmetal or black/green could be nice
What are good spots for a pump+reservoir combo, considering 2 360mm rads and a 3,5 HDD on the bottom?
Hardware Temperatures with SLI/CrossFire
I'm planning to run Crossfire HD7870s (Sapphire GHz Edition) and an FX 6300 @4.5GHz with an H100i in this case or maybe a white Carbide 540 Air. Depending on cooling efficiency and cooling to noise ratio. In any case, I'll be using 3x Corsair AF120 Fans in the front and 2x 120 SPs on the H100i. AF140 in the rear. So no Watercooling, except for the CPU, ofc.
There are almost no reviews for the NZXT H440 out there and the few that are, are not talking about how well this case handles multiple GPUs and overclocking - or anything regarding temperatures, at all, for that matter.
So question is: Will the NZXT be able to handle such a hardware setup? :huh:

It'll be fine. I've built a rig with 2 660s,(DCUII cooler, which behaves alot like your Sapphire 7870s) a 6350 and a h100 in a worse case (corsair carbide 200r) and the temperatures were fine. The airflow in this case is fantastic from what I've read.
200R is a cheaper case, but not necessairly worse regarding airflow. Those vents in the top alone can do alot for low temps. I'm sporting a modded NZXT H2 myself and overall temps dropped 6 degrees since I modified the top (removing the hot swap bay and puting another 140mm Fan in there + some black mesh).
Point is, comparing the 200R with the NZXT H440 in performance might work, but it very well might not.

I'm getting this case in white as soon as possible! But will my Noctua NH-D14 fit in?
I see no reason why it wouldn't.

oh trust me it is ;P. Its a dust magnet as well. For the money you can do much better as well, such as the Fractal R4, the antec GX700 and tonnes of others.
I know they're not competitors but I was showing that if those components were fine in the 200r then they'll be excellent in the H440.

hi guys i was just re-watching tom's video trying to find that song he used and now the song has been removed....
anyone know the tune?

Yeah, I figured that much. Thanks for the input.
Seems like it comes down to me being able to wait until end of february for the H440 or ... not. As far as i know, Corsair's 540 white will be available mid february.
One way or the other, my trusty H2 has to hold on for a little while longer.
Btw, why isn't there a proper review of the Carbide Air 540? Just the quick unboxing stuff. That's clearly not enough! Give us a full length review, please! ^_^

NZXT said early February, and Newegg has the release date set as 2/14/2014, which also happens to be the same release date they have for the white Air 540.
No dual 360mm rad AND a 3,5" HDD together at the same time...
There's a place to mount a 3.5" in the floor of the case.
EDIT: The recessed section there has mounting points for 3.5" and 2.5" drives.

I test fitted two rads fine - I covered plenty of reasons why it would and maybe wouldnt in my review.
