I am sorely temped to downsize from my 780T to a H440 but I know the original had airflow issues and am concerned that's still an issue in the revised 2015 version. Anyone with a high end OCed system with this case, can you let me know how it is especially if you have an all in one CPU cooler.

Thanks.
 
I currently have a H440 with the specs:

i5 6600k OC'd to 4.6GHz with @ 1.42v (yes its a rubbish chip)
h110i GTX
980ti OC'd to 1520MHz @ 1.25v

My 6600k is delidded and temps are sitting at 58 - 60c after an hour of P95.
My GPU will hit around 73c when playing graphically intensive games at 1440p.

Getting air into the case (and creating positive pressure) is a big problem. I have my radiator mounted on the front in push / pull and the 3 120mm fans mounted on top drawing air in as well.
Rear 140mm as exhaust and I also had to cut a hole in my side panel to fit another 120mm fan to exhaust more heat.

I've tried countless configurations and this is by far the best configuration to keep the case cool at low noise levels.

Well that's disappointing news, looks so nice but I can't be having trouble with cooling like that, bummer. :(

I feel your pain, I'd love one of the revised 440's with the Orange trim, trouble is I'm currently running a Corsair 'high airflow' 450D which is a joy for keeping things cool.

I have to be particular when it comes to temps as I'm running an SLI setup.

It seems that in the mid tower bracket, any other case would be a step down in terms of running temps. :(
 
i have a 2015 nzxt H440 and my 6700K on idle is running at 45c with a H110I GT which is top mounted (does not really fit properly due to case design on top)
