Do you have a video of how you painted the insides of the o11? I'm thinking about doing the same.

I just finished an NZXT H9 Flow blackout build and it looks…stunning. Such a great case, the airflow in particular is the icing on the cake, I can run my fans on much lower curves and still have really good CPU temps. I’ve got a Palit Gamerock 4090 Omniblack vertically mounted and it just looks lovely. They’ve honestly hit it out the park with the new case.

Thank you so much for making this video!

I have a black O11D Evo right now. It is truly a stunning, well-made case in almost every aspect. That said, I do think NZXT did a great job with this H9 Flow. Pros right out of the gate would be it has the "fishtank mod" stock and the bigger mesh holes do help with air flow. Price is right too. But I can't same much else beyond that because there are areas where it just doesn't surpass the Evo in my eyes. The case simply has too much dead space inside of it. Sure, a loop could use up some of that space but still. No grommets was a poor choice in my opinion. I see way too many builds in the Flow where I can literally see cables through the holes. And honestly, looking at it, the whole thing feels a little less spectscular looking to me. Not that it isn't a nice looking case, just that it looks like someone tried to copy the Evo from memory. Not a good or bad thing, just an observation. Whereas the Evo just looks so sleek and the components fill the space so well. I like that it is lower sitting and the RGB strip in the front is such a nice accent piece. Plus, the case is modular. The front glass can be swapped out for mesh with more fans. You have a GPU mount for the side. The case can be flipped. I/O can be moved. And after watching other build videos comparing the two, I just really liked that everything in the Evo felt like it has some heft/quality to it. As far as price, I know pricing fluctuates alot, but I paid $170 for my Evo at Newegg last December. I see that price frequently as well. So for that price, it would be a no brainer for me. Sure, you don't get the included fans, but chances are, whomever is buying one of these two cases is doing so because they already have a build in mind and have replacement fans already picked out. So overall, I prefer the Evo in almost every sense, other than the fact that the Evo has to be modified to look the same. Not hating on the Flow though. Solid case. And for those that don't want to modify their case, this case gives them the option to avoid that. Plus it is always good to have more options on the market.

I totally agree 😊 I haven’t seen too many cases that I like more than my evo. Cases that have the psu on the top or bottom taking up space inside look dated to me (don’t get me wrong though I have seen some killer builds with those cases but just not my preference). The evo hides the psu and makes a showcase of all your parts, plus it’s customizable. The fish tank mod is the only thing I wish came stock, I haven’t done the mod to my case yet because I travel with my pc a few times a year and don’t want to break it lol.

Front glass is removable on the H9, but is a pain to do so. Remove a couple o screws from the corners where it meet the side TG panel, and you're gold. The issue is that you pretty much need to lay the case on its side to do the bottom screws. Basically, only do if you really have to.

Generally hate seeing AIO tubes, and you did a good job at hiding them. Might have to try that approach in the Asus TUF GT-502, which is a more rugged clone of the 011.

Thanks for this video! I'm building mine next week and your video answered a lot of my question. BTW do you think it's possible on H9 to set the AIO waterlooling from NZXT like your Lian Li, I mean is it possible to hide all the pipe from the bottom like you did on Lian Li on this H9 ? Or pipe is too short maybe on this case ?

That is the greatest comparison I’ve seen to these two cases

Thanq so much bro for video ❤️ nd im buying 011 dynamic nd moded it and my video coming soon on you tube i will send you link after modded ❤️

I picked up a white H9 Flow recently to upgrade from my older Corsair 5000D. I love the case, i'm running it with an air cooler and the thermals are great. I only have 2 complaints about the case. The 1st is that the fans for my air cooler don't fit. I have a Noctua NH-D15 Chromax that comes with 140mm fans that are too wide that would fit no problem in my old case. Also if you use Noctua's heatsink covers there's just enough space but they touch the glass. I ended up getting rid of the fans and covers and going with the NZXT fans that came with the case and it actually looks good with them. The 2nd is the open hole on the top above the motherboard. I wish they included a rubber gromet or even a cheap plastic cover to help hide cables. Other then that the case is perfect.

sick builds bro

both are very good, play at the top of all cases currently on the market! I myself have the H9 with the Lian Li Uni Fan SL-INF 120 fans (the most beautiful fans on the market for me) a very cool combination.

the glass inside H9 flow have a 3 screw and we can open it, so we can pass the 24 cable throught that hole

The only thing I don't like about the NZXT H9 is the 4 feet. They just make the overall of the case look kinda cheap compare to the 011.

Facts 😅

The reason for the “dead space” you mention is really obvious. White interior. There’s no visual block like there is in your painted Evo. White walls always create the perception of space, it’s why home interiors are painted in v light shades. If you get to work on the H9 with your spray cans you’ll all but solve the dead space issue since both cases are pretty close in volume.

The glass does come off you just have to unscrew the screws

Well depends what fans u use for the AIO

As far as mesh and airflow “looking like it’s gonna have more airflow” is different than actually testing/seeing the airflow.

I built in the H7 flow a while back and i hated that little bar they put where the 24pin goes it just gets in the way if I remember right it can be removed, I struggled! I was using white antec 24pin cables, i do like NZXT's new case but that bar would get me so mad lol.

It is mainly a branding element but also a throwback to a time when NZXT was one of the few case companies people were building showy custom watercooling loops in.

NZXT H9 is a cool case but with Lian Li getting ready to release the O11-D XL evo. The H9 is going to just be that probably cheaper case that’s less functional.

I have an o11 evo and I can say that the NZXT quality is superior. My less than a year old o11 evo rusted, something that never happened with my previous NZXTs. The h9 will definitely be my next.
