H510i

Let me get this straight, i brought this case back in December 23rd, so i had this case for almost a year WITHOUT A GPU for about 4 months and only just had my GPU finally for about 3 months, Temperature wise in this case, its alright, there are better cases with airflow but this one has enough even with that front side slot on the Side panel, no GPU overheating crashing over 80° 90° gaming for me, GPU only reaches about 65° to 75° for hours on end which is normal for GPU temperature wise, although when it gets into the summer, it can rise temperatures in the GPU for me about 1 to 2°c on average, other than that its alright enough, havent ran into any Hot Box issues with this case as people say, im guessing Airflow wise its a 50/50 for certain people, another thing to look out is that this case is mostly built on Negative pressure, with the stock case fans pulling air out as exhaust, leaving the GPU to mostly get its air from the back opening, which will cause it to build up dust from any small tight opening in the case, from the side panel openings to the bottom of the case, it can also depend how dusty your room can be as one of the pictures shows the ammount of fine dust my fan has pulled onto the exhaust vent in 3 MONTHS of use without a GPU, so dust wise youll be cleaning this case out alot more than others with a possitive air pressure.Building in this case is the most easiest thing ive ever worked with, as the standoffs are pre screwed in(im guessing with more cases these days) and theres a standoff thats replaced as a rod to help you guide the motherboard into place which can be very usefull for first time builders or just overall use, the cable management bracket is pretty good and stylish also to hide the cables behind the side panel itself, you could either run your 24 Pin infront of the cable bracket or behind to your liking, theres also guidelanes for the cables inorder to make it much more simpler to cable manage in this case.so overall for £70 this case is pretty good, with its build quality and being easy to build in the case and enough airflow that my GPU doesnt crash or melt, id say this case can be recommended.

So this is my first build and using it for about a month it has been good. It has been really easy to build in with the cable mangement being really good and it being a nice looking case along with the front usb c header which is a nice extra as my motherboard does support usb type c header. The 3.5 headphone jack is good as you can use your everyday usual headphones/earphones which is awesome rather than having to use a seperate earphone and microphone jack, they do include a splitter if you happen to have that type of headset/headphone. The case has alright fans, they do the job but can get a tiny bit loud, the top fan was louder than the rear fan, I replaced them with bequiet fans. I dont have a AIO but you use one in this case. The negatives I have found is that the screws for mainly the back panel is degraded in quality and when taking off the back panel and trying to install them the screw is now a bit annoying to put into the case as they dont go in smoothly and they can not go straight in but rather wonky and then you have to use a bit of force when using your thumbs and the screws have degraded in quality to with them chipping off but they still work. The front panel isnt as bad but the scew has degraded in quality too. The warmth in this case is fine but nothing spectacular, I have heard from other people that it isn't the best airflow but the warmth is fine to be honest and isn't anything to take on board, I'm just mentioning that but to be honest I might be wrong. Overall it is a good case and you won't be disappointed, also I'd recommend going with the non-i cases as you can save money and the rgb lighting and extra features aren't really worth it but if you can find a good offer or you have the money and want RGB go for it, I was going to buy the i series but than I saw I could save a bit of money with going with the non i version. Also the paint scuffs of very easily near screw areas and it exposes the metal so paint quality is a bit meh but it would scuff off any other areas.

I did a lot of research before coming to my decision, I wanted the H510 Elite but at the price of £149.99 compared to the H510's £74.99 price I was hesitant.I jumped onto youtube and watch about 5 videos on the case and all of them said the H510 elite was over prices and lacking features and for double the price of the H510 it wasn't worth the price.However I saw it was on offer for £130 and decided to get it anyway and I didn't regret it!Not only does it look amazing and a lot nicer than the ordinary H510, it is actually worth the extra money!The H510 comes with only 2 fans in the rear with no fans in the front so you can add your own liquid CPU cooler, and no RGB lighting.If you're going for the water-cooled CPU block then this is probably the case for you.But seeing as I was going to use the stock CPU cooler the H510 Elite was perfect.As the H510 Elite came with two rear fans and 2 front facing fans as well as RGB.If I had bought the H510 I would have had to spend another £44 for two fans (at the time of writing this) and another £14 for and RGB strip - totalling to £58 which would come to £1 more than what I paid for the H510 Elite.Which is something to consider if you're going air cooled with the stock cooler and are wanting RBG lighting.It was my first time building a PC and the case was easy to build in and took me just over an hour to do.Cable management was easy with the large basement and the preinstalled channels for easy cable managing.The case came with a load of screws and zip ties most of which are spare.The case came with a few marks but they're not very visible so I wasn't really bothered.All I would say is that if you're thinking about getting the H510 Elite but are putting it off but have the money, I would say to just go for it, especially if it's on offer, I couldn't be happier with how it's turned out and I think it looks a lot better than the standard H510!
