Inwin 805 Case - Opinions

[CV_Taihou]

I'm looking to move my cousins system into a new 'show' case (he's pretty set on the Inwin 805 Red), and wanted some feedback on if it was a good option or not. Existing system (with the 805) is listed below.

If the 805 will cause issues with heat or airflow, are there any other cases that we could look at for the machine?

There are no major issues with that case, but it can be a lil loud, and is very sort of plain looking imo. 😛
Tell him to take a look at the newly released S340 Elite, it's absolutely beautiful, just an S340 with a tempered glass panel slapped on the side. 😉

Would we need to replace the cooler to fit in the NZXT?

Ah, it's the 280mm version, I see.
It will only mount in the front, and should be set as intake.
It shouldn't affect temps, there is typically only a few degrees difference, and it's inside the case anyway, so you won't notice it and it won't make any difference realistically.
You can remove the front fans that are pre-installed and stick them at the top as exhaust and you should be set. 😉
