Just wondered if anyone in the UK has bought a H440 replacement acrylic CNC panel from mnpctech by any chance as I am trying to try to get an idea of what customs etc are going to slap on the import duty?
 
I just contacted a local glass company and got them to cut me a piece of 4mm toughened glass to size. Cut the original tabs off and use some extra strong adhesive to fit it. Really pleased and cost me a total of £14.50!

I have a black H440, loved the case but was annoyed with the smoked side window and not being able to see inside the case.

I contacted NZXT support and asked for a clear window, they organised a black side panel with clear window for $20 which arrived and fitted and now happy with.

I would contact them if its a clear window you are looking for?
 
Thanks for replies. Yea, I already have the clear acrylic on that came with the white H440 2015 edition, the issue I am having is that NZXT use a low grade acrylic (sorry NZXT but it is!) in these cases and it scratches VERY easily.
It was scratched right out of the box and I did contact NZXT who very kindly shipped me replacement side panels all the way for free however the new one is scratched now and I have only ever used new high quality microfibre cloths to clean it so am a bit gutted really. When you consider this case costs in excess of £100 it is pathetic workmanship. I will likely have to get the replacement ones from mnpctech as theirs seem to be a high quality panel compared to the original.
My only other option is to go for the Mountain Mods case which I originally wanted but was trying to save money by opting for the H440 white.

It's a pity because there is a lot I love about this case and the rear LED over the socket bay is a nice touch.
Like everything though it is made to a price.
It's strange but I paid roughly the same money years ago for my old Thermaltake Mozart TX and that lasted 10 years!
 
Thanks for the update.

By the sounds of things I better be careful round about the window!!
 
Don't get me wrong, there are a LOT of good points for this case that outweigh the bad really but the big let down is deffo the window quality.
It has zero scratch resistance so I would advise getting it replaced with higher grade material really. ;)
 
I ended up taking the window off my case. Now it's super clear and even allows the heat to effectively leave the interior of the case without the need for exhaust fans
 
For the interested / morbidly curious you can now get these high grade clear replacement panels for the H440 from within the UK.
These are the same ones from mnpctech - just means you don't get a nasty HMRC bill on top. ;)
