Hello.

I am hesitating between S340 or Fractal arc midi R2.

And also between H440 and Fractal design R5.

Not sure if i want to spend 300+ on a casing or issit really worth it to spend the extra 100RM on the H440 or R5. Any one can give me some input or feedback or advice?


thanks!

Depending to what you want.
Like my AMD CPU always maintaining at 45-49°C as using CM's Hyper 101(for up to 95W while CPU about 100W), so limitation is at the cooler, not the casing.
Secondly is the bling factor, this is quite subjective.
Lastly, sure is how much you willing to spend. For me, cooling performance and 0 bling factor is important.

For me i like the design of S340.. The dust filter of the arc midi r2. And the silentness of the R5 and also the dust filter. And for h440. its purely the design and also the dust filter part. I guess the dust filter plays the main concern as im quite lazy to clean the internal regularly. What stopping me from the R5 or H440 is im not sure if i want to spend so much on a casing. Haha
