NZXT H1

Does anyone have a lost of, or link to a confirmed list of size compatible gpus? I’m going to go for an RTX 2070 super, but am a bit puzzled over sizes. Seems to be a wide variety of opinions out there. The 2070 that optimum tech used in his build, according to the dimensions on amazon, shouldn’t fit, but it clearly does. Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi! this is from the website

GPU Clearance:
Dimension - 305mm x 128mm; 265mm x 145mm
Thickness - Up to 2.5 Slots
Memory Height: 45mm

I had a Gigabyte RX 5700 XT Gaming OC till few days ago, and it fit without problems. Have ordered a Gigabyte RTX 2070S WF3 and should have it next week and can test that too (but is basically the same dimension as the 5700xt)

Just ordered a black H1, hoping I made it for the June batch.

Around 4:30, Gigabyte Aorus 5700 XT in this case.

Combined with the official specs, it seems like 305x128x58mm is the max. But the dust filter needs removing to get a card that thick in to the case. Still pretty generous clearance really. Enough for most 2070 Supers.

Great thanks

@Mark011 what's the noise like from the pump at idle? I've found in the past pump noise to be quiet irritating when doing desktop stuff / no load. You can run fans pretty slow to produce next to no noise but AIOs seem to constantly put out a noise.

It is a bit loud, meaning you can definitely hear it, the pump is connected to a 3 pin header so it always work at 100%. But this is my personal opinion, I'm used to years of liquid cooled machines where you could hear nothing!

If you are in a very quiet room, you'll hear it.

Thanks, that's what I thought. I've sent a webnote to cancel my pre-order.

Are you saying that the AIO including is 3 pin, or is it 4 pin and you've plugged it into a 3 pin on the mobo?

I would've thought it's controllable to some extent using the BIOS.

it's 3 pin, you can't control it through PWM or BIOS

There's another reason to scrub this one from the list, aio is bad enough but 100% pump speed at idle is a definite no

Mark011 · 28 May 2020 at 13:55

to be honest unless you are in a completely quiet room, you will not hear the pump running at 100%

kingteeb · 28 May 2020 at 17:44

I'm seriously considering picking one of these up. Its going to be in a room with a ps4/tv etc. Really doubt the pump is going to be noisier than the playstation!

kingteeb · 28 May 2020 at 17:45

Oh, also, think the first batch of these will already be spoken for? Haven't dropped a preorder yet

ceeK · 29 May 2020 at 16:23

@kingteeb I think so by this point as they were close to the limit 2 weeks ago although people may have been cancelling. Probably more likely to get one in black if you do order.

What? 3 pin? I was thinking about getting it myself, but it's a no. I can't have the fans going 100% You would need a fan controller to reduce speed. Meh

The fan is 4 pin PWM, we were talking about the AIO Pump which is 3 pin

you can’t control pump speed. But tbh pump speed should be high. The only thing to look out for is pump whine. Hopefully the everyone receives is quiet

Any update on the incoming shipment?. Have everything else now except the motherboard and case

McPhee · 4 Jun 2020 at 21:26

With the H1, surely that means you're still missing most of a PC?
