NZXT H1

It looks great as a package. But I would want to question the quality of the AIO heatsink and PSU as well as cooling efficiency of such a case before purchasing.

PSU is an NZXT Badged Seasonic Unit so no worries there and the AIO is a Compact Kraken, so it's safe to assume that the AIO will also be top quality.

There's plenty of vented panels too so I really can't see Cooling being an issue. NZXT appear to have done their homework on this one.
 
Thermals seem fine in most reviews. I do think too much emphasis is being given to an offhand comment from Ali at Optimum Tech.

It's worth noting that he reviews GPU thermals using a 2 slot 1080 Ti. That may be great for compatibility. But it isn't really showing off the GPU cooling capability of cases with more space, like the NZXT H1 and Sidearmd T1.

Also, the graph on his video is dominated by cases and set-ups which are very good for GPU thermals. The H1 winds up toward the bottom through virtue of being merely okay. It's pretty much in the middle of the range, while having another ~12mm of GPU cooler clearance vs the likes of the Ghost and the Dan A4.

I do wonder how much difference there would be between (for example) an MSI 5700 XT Mech in a Dan A4, and a Sapphire 5700 XT Nitro+ in the H1?
 
Hi everyone.

I've had an update today in regards to the lead time on the H1 Cases. The first batch was due to ship from China today for arrival mid-April.
Unfortunately, due to the coronavirus issues in China at the moment, the production quota for the H1 hasn't been met and as such, will not be shipping until the end of the month.

This means, the revised date for UK stock from NZXT is Mid/Late May.

Thanks for letting us know :) Poop news but can't be helped, people's health is obviously far more important than my soon to be INCREDIBLY SEXY ITX build :D

Definitely interested in this for a gaming/media rig. Just hope my 2080 ti will get enough juice.

reviews online have had a strix 2080ti running in the case with included 650w psu, plus some have had a 3950x too which is good news as i'll be transplanting my 3900x and 2080ti into this when it arrives, the 650w psu should have more than enought juice to cope, but as a backup i have a corsair sf 750w sff on stanby if its needed, but i doubt it tbh

superb :)
 
Oh no... I've just checked a competitor website and it looks like they're not going to stock it, even though it was up for pre-order. I hope Overclockers are still getting it in?

Hi Everyone,

Once again I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news. My latest update from NZXT has just come in.
The Coronavirus has hit production harder than originally thought, shipping from China has been pushed back to Mid-May meaning a revised UK Landing Date of Mid-Late June 2020.

If anyone has Pre-Ordered and would like to cancel, please give our sales team a call, quote them your order number and they will be more than happy to help.
Alternatively, you may leave your Pre-Orders on the system and you will recieve the H1 as soon as stock lands. (We are only expecting very limited stock in the first wave of deliveries)

As always, should I receive any further updates from NZXT, I will pass on the information to you all.
 
Hi guys! NZXT just sent me an H1 black to mod, it's sitting here next to me, I'm planning to try make custom front and rear panels, and perhaps explore the possibility to put 2 slim fan at the back, will open a work log soon, so you can check the work :)

Nice. Looking forward to seeing your work
 
Yeah. Just a shame they're $65 + shipping and import fees :p I believe other finishes are planned (and pretty much anything is available by request; different woods, coloured acrylic, etc.).

Clever idea for a business. Ghost Sheets seem to have been a huge success, so it's good to see the creator branching out in to other models.
 
Just spent an hour deciding if I want one of these for my new build, to find they're unavailable for another 3 months :(

Gives me more time to save I suppose!

EDIT: Spotted a problem; no space for a 3.5" HDD
