H9 Flow or Elite?! NZXT Stepped Up! | RGB & Blackout Gaming PC Build | ROG Strix RTX 4090, i9 13900K

#NZXT #NZXTH9 #rtx4090 - Introducing the all new NZXT H9 Flow & Elite, a solid mid-tower chassis with PANORAMIC glass, so stoked about this! Before we get started, the panoramic glass isn't a new feature by any means, but it's certainly a new era for NZXT.

For years NZXT have been well known for their boxy design aesthetic, it was only a matter of time until they came forward with their own implementation of a panoramic glass chassis. The H9 carries a lot of the features we've all grown familiar from cases such as the O11, but it's nice to see that NZXT have simplified their own design and given it a unique touch to make the build process simple, pleasurable and effortless.

The completely perforated side panel is excellent to see, allowing residual heat to be expelled out of the case, also allowing the PSU to breath freely. Every vented panel in the case carries it's own removable mesh filter which is great to see. One of my personal favourite features has to be the way NZXT have added their signature iconic cable management bar and also placed a clear window on the front side of it... giving unrestricted viewing access right through the case. Nice!

For both of these builds I really wanted to play to their strengths. The Flow would be ideally suited for an air cooled setup, or a liquid cooled system with high temperature hardware. The Elite on the other hand does have more restricted airflow, but through my limited testing so far temperatures have been well within reason, even with the i9 13900K & RTX 4090 thanks to the huge amount of air being drawn through the bottom and side!

Why did I place so many fans in the air cooled setup, you ask? The answer is in the video during the airflow visualization. The top fans are running at a slower speed to the CPU cooler and the exhaust fan, meaning they are able to expel residual heat from the case without depriving the cooler of air.
