NZXT reveals H9-series cases with a dual-chamber design

It's hard to deny how influential the Lian Li O11 Dynamic was to the PC case market. Since its release, many brands have launched their own dual-chamber cases with tempered glass, including Hyte, Antec, Raijintek, and Kolink. Now, NZXT is being added to the list with the new H9 series.

Available in black and white, the H9 cases will have two variants. The Flow version is cheaper, using a more airflow-oriented design with mesh panels on the bottom, rear, top and right side. The other one is the Elite variant, which instead of using the top-vented panel of the Flow case, comes with a tempered glass panel with a smaller vent on the side. Moreover, the Elite cases come with an included RGB & fan controller.

Regardless of the model, the H9 features a seamless glass panelling that allows you to showcase almost every angle of the system. Thanks to the dual-chamber design, components like the PSU and storage drives are in a different division, reducing visible cabling and improving cooling. For cooling, there are three F Series 120mm RGB Duo fans and one F120Q fan. The front I/O offers two USB-A 3.2 Gen1 ports, two USB-C 3.2 Gen2 ports, and a headset audio jack.

The H9 cases support up to 3x 120mm /2x 140mm fans on the top and bottom, a 120mm fan at the rear and 3x 120mm on the side. All air intakes come with dust filters. As for the radiator support, you can put 360mm radiators on the top (280mm too), bottom (280mm too) and side (push/pull) and 120mm on the rear. There's 165mm (height) of space for CPU towers, 435 mm (length) for GPUs, and 200mm (length) for PSUs. Additionally, there are seven expansion slots. Lastly, there are 4+2 2.5-inch and two 3.5-inch drive bays.

The H9 is now available in the US for $159.99 (Flow) and $239.99 (Elite). It will also arrive in the EU and UK for €189.90/£169.99 and €289.90/£259.99, respectively.
