fit wits coverage of copy text 2019 is brought to you by fantex Coolermaster gigabyte enter max team group NZXT and corsair to learn more about our sponsors click on the links below okay we've got the h 710 here that means they're actually doing a refresh of their h cases the h 400 is gone they're not bringing that back because there just wasn't a whole lot of sales or interest right now for micro-atx and you can kind of see that based on the dearth of options in the micro ATX motherboard sector both on AMD and intel side but that's a topic for another video but they've made a few nice changes here for starters you actually get a smart device v2 which includes hue to compatibility and so you can actually have two RGB channels now meaning that you can actually sync up things like all your AR RGB to fans the cable comes under glow lighting pretty pretty easily and seamlessly from that single device they've also added USB type-c USB 3.1 gen2 type-c right there on the front panel it's a very nice 20:19 feature to have look at this there's there's a nice little little slot here for reservoir mounting I kind of like that option very friendly for custom water cooling of course you get the same nice radiator mounting options at the front looks like they've got a 360 right there you can also see they've redesigned the SSD tray here so there's actually a groove that goes along the power supply shroud so you can to lessly mount that tray just right there in the the cables obviously go right behind this scale management bar which is very nice additionally the actual side panel window has been improved as well there's a single thumb screw back here and once that's undone I'm not going to do it right now because I only have one hand free but essentially you can just pop out the the side panel window with a couple pushpins it's very nice much more seamless than the original design and it's looking pretty good so that's the H 710 and H 710 I of course there's gonna be a slight price difference between the two so over here we've got the H 510 I pretty much comes with a lot of the same improvements that we saw on the H 710 also you get vertical GPU mounting here which is which is pretty cool obviously you want to be considered of airflow if you're gonna be popping in particular high running hot running GPUs and make sure they're not too close to the side panel there make sure you have ample ventilation at the front and all is all good and very it's very reflective in here sorry we have this cute little guy h2 10 so the H 200 but newly improved if you're going mini ITX and you want more of a small form-factor build i don't think we're gonna have vertical GPU mounting here ah beat for obvious reasons but still the same lovely case just much more seamless integration with various features this is the H 510 elite this is their brand new chassis so we're kind of using a similar layout as the existing H 500 however you can see that we have a glass front panel which looks very nice you can see those a or to RGB fans which are 140 millimeters they come pre-installed in the case you'll have to add your own exhaust fans however we shouldn't be too big of a problem you know I see some people sort of concerned about airflow here but they're not really changing much from the existing H 500 if you can see over here on the right side there's actually ample ventilation going all the way down from top to bottom plus you have additional ventilation coming from the bottom so and regardless of the material you're using whether it be metal acrylic plastic ventilation is ventilation quite simply so I'd be interested to see sort of an a/b comparison testing with this and H 500 or similar just to sort of put all of those rumors to rest but the internal layout very very nice very familiar it's not broken don't fix it as they say and then there's also been some drastic improvements with the NZXT cam there developers are constantly working on making it a better more seamless software again still very lightweight very low system resources but we have these new theme packs that you can actually download share with your friends if you're kind of lazy and don't feel like being creative it's very quick and easy to do one click on the fly adjustments to all of your lighting pretty much changes all the all the RGB effects inside of your case h - also has USB type-c right there on the front I should mention also we have 140 millimeter mount at the top 120 at the rear it's also worth pointing out that the smart device comes included with this case there's no option to get it without it but you kind of wouldn't want to go without it especially if it's coming with those to RGB fans so it's smart right out of the box this is a backside look at the H 510 and you can see that we've got our our smart device v2 right there it's a very nice low profile SSD trays that I mentioned earlier on the 710 I and 7:10 you can actually see that they're a bit more I feel like they're much flatter for better for cable management gets the side panel on much easier not much else has changed to significantly about the backside here again it's a very smart design you have that power supply basement with all the room for stuffing excess cabling and yeah it's looking looking pretty good back here in case you're curious about how the front panel actually mounts to the case there's there's two screws one on either side it's very simple obviously it's a bit a little tight in here to get thumb screws in here so they're just regular Phillips head screws but with those gone you can simply just pop it out using the same pushpins that we saw on the side panel and just just comes off just like that it's really nice in fact you probably don't even need the screws honestly unless you're traveling with the case shipping it around because the pushpins feel very secure when they're locked into place
