After opinions and advice. S340 Elite.

[beany_bot]

Hi, I currently have a blue/black S340 and ever since I saw the S340 Elite I have had an itch to get it.
I really want to stick with NZXT as A: I love the "boxy" design and B: Had a terrific customer experience with them as as part of mine wet faulty and they shipped a new part all the way from California fast even though I was out of warranty, all for no charge. So that makes me want to buy NZXT again.

So I am just about to pull the trigger on an s340 elite. But I'm leaning towards white.... is this wise? Do you like the white case? will it age OK? Is white on the way in or out? I'm thinking keep my blue theme going, same cables etc. but this time white blue instead of black blue. I dunno. Kind of in 2 minds about the white. Some of the builds I see online look amazing in the white case. Better than all the others. But could this just be that it lends itself well to a photograph?

What do you like? what s340 elite would you buy?

P.S. If I sold my current case on the MM what could I expect to get for it? It's "as new".


My current Case.

I have just changed my case from the NZXT Source 340 White (Not Elite)... I really love White cases as It looks great and a lot of colours can go with white... I think if your sticking with your blue theme then Id choose white as it will make the Blue stand out more

White and Blue
Red and Black

Always works!

Advice taken. I pulled the trigger. Case will be here tomorrow. Absolutely no real "need" for it. But that's what happens when the GPU market is vile and you've been saving for ages.

Post back your opinion, I grabbed a S340 Elite as soon as it was released along with a Kraken X62 and it's something I look at every day and think "phwoar", as sad as that is!

Yeah it's on my wishlist. Will get one when I upgrade my mobo and CPU next year.

Cheers mate! I've got all NZXT kit.

- Kraken X62 AIO
- NZXT Hue+ (strips and controller)
- NZXT Aer RGB fans (120cm on back, 140cm top)

People moan about Hue not working, but I've never had an issue. Always been perfect.

How are people finding ventilation on this case? I'm almost decided on getting the elite, but am very concerned about the intake restrictions. Has anyone modded the front to allow more airflow?
