For its classic and minimalistic design the H230 from NZXT is in my eyes the perfect silent mid-tower chassis; if needed with the HDD cage removed it can be home to long, high end video cards up to 400mm but with the HDD cage it can hold cards up to 290mm, while providing support for ATX down to the MINI-ITX motherboards. The product itself weighs 7.25kg and contains a removable HDD cage, seven expansion slots, internal noise absorbing padding, two USB 3.0 ports on the front of the case as well as microphone and headphone jacks (see down below for full spec list).

BOTTOM LINE:
Currently at around £60 from UK sites like OCUK it really is a great complete package for a tremendous value. The sheer simple sleek design of the case makes it look spacious while still having a lot of potential for creativity, especially with all of the features it comes with including the great opportunities for watercooling. Overall another great product from NZXT.
