NZTX H440 case

Habakkuk · 12 Apr 2017 at 18:50

The H440 can have 3x120 or 2x140 radiators in the front and the top of the case.

Anyone know the maximum thickness for the radiator?

Ok, looks like you have to remove the Hard drive bays to fit a radiator to the front.

What's the maximum thickness for the top radiator?

I've got an EK 360 PE in the top, and an EK 360 SE in the front of my H440.

I wouldn't want to go any thicker at the top otherwise rad+fans would get in the way of my RAM slots.

I have an ST30 and single set of 25mm fans (55mm in total) and it's just clear of the top of the motherboard. As long as nothing is above the top of your mobo then you are fine

Did you lose space for the top 3.5" hard drive with that radiator?

No, I've only lost (all of) my HDD bays due to the front rad.

Dammit, I guess I have unrealistic expectations for this case.

Back to the drawing board - thanks guys.

Apols for duplicating but going to try to catch more posters this way....

Questions for H440 owners (would be a 2015 or New Edition I buy)

I would be fully loading mine, with 11 HDDs and every card slot filled, either my existing 14C Xeon or a 16C Threadripper and some SSDs

Q1: Are the SSD slots on the PSU shroud still usable if you have a single slot GPU in the bottom slot of your Mobo?

Q2: If Q1 is "no", where else can 2 x 2.5" SSDs go?

Q3: With all HDD bays needed, what is the biggest top mounted rad I can fit? 240 or 280 and same question with push/pull (think it depends on mobo layout with 2 fans on a rad)

Q4: Can I still use the rear 140mm fan slot if a 240/280 rad/fans are installed in top

Thanks guys
