summary
The simpler or lesser version of the new H7 series is the successor to the H710 at similar prices. That price isn’t the only comparable price, as NZXT hasn’t veered far from the successful H710. The roomy chassis easily accommodates a high-end system, but the cooling can be better than two 120mm fans. Thus, performance is reasonable only with the fans provided, but due to the fairly dense installation in the front, more fans is not necessarily better.
summary
H7 Flow is a version of the H7 series that focuses on airflow. The front is not closed, as with the H7, but is perforated, so the fans behind it can suck a lot of air. However, NZXT only offers two 120mm fans, only one of which is on the front. This makes the case a bit short, because you really benefit from an open front with more fans. In the latter case, the case cools excellently and can compete with cases such as Torrent and 4000D. At 140 euros, the price is on par with the regular H7, and this is the most versatile option in our opinion. Although the treasury would clearly benefit from having an extra fan, it still earned an excellent prize.
summary
The Elite is the more luxurious version of the H7 series and is the successor to the H710i. Like this i version, the Elite has RGB and a fan controller included, which, among other things, controls three pre-installed 140mm RGB fans. The fourth propeller 140mm in the rear is not lit. For more luxurious cooling and a glass front panel, you pay a significant extra price compared to the H7 and H7 Flow, but if your eyes want something too, this is an attractive choice. Since very little air is drawn through the glass front panel, performance is at best equal to that of the H7 Flow.
About five years ago, NZXT released its first H Series enclosures, in three sizes. The H700, H400, and H200 soon proved so successful that the H500 was also launched. Since then, the H series has gone through several iterations, with variants featuring RGB lighting, glass fronts, and more modern front-panel connectors.
In 2020, followed by H1, which is euphemistically expressed with Mixed feelings received† This H Series has now been supplemented with three housings in the largest category: NZXT H7, H7 Flow and H7 Elite. Cases are divided into three types: the simplest type is H7, with a closed front panel, but a side glass panel. The Elite has a glass panel on both the side and the front and thus comes with RGB fans for the necessary bling factor. If you want a lot of cooling, you can take a look at the Flow version; The front panel is perforated, so that as much air as possible can be drawn in.
The boxes are available in two or three colours. The H7 and H7 Flow are available in matte black, matte white or a combination of black and white, with a suggested retail price of €140. The Elite, with its glass panels and RGB lighting, is quite expensive with a suggested retail price of €210 and is available in matte black or matte white. Optionally, a set of all versions is available for mounting the video card at right angles. This riser kit costs €90.
