[@jdbarney]

Bill makes it look easy to remove that sound dampening material from the back of the bezel. I didn't have as much luck getting it to come up in one solid piece. After removing the bulk of the material, I soaked the residual adhesive with a bunch of Goo Gone. After letting it penetrate, it came off easily with a flat razor blade.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

thats a great tip, Thank you John! ......yeah, it was a grueling task that took waaaay too long

[@TalesOfWar]

Run an 8700K for a few hours inside it, that should melt it enough to peel off haha!

[@lorenzojabari6465]

you prolly dont care but if you are stoned like me atm you can stream all of the new movies on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend for the last few days xD

[@coltenxavier7601]

@Lorenzo Jabari yup, have been watching on instaflixxer for since december myself :D

[@ImagineHavinFun]

Watched this video and modded my Corsair 175R for a front mesh now. 7 yrs later video still helping out.

[@ThePhoenixdive]

Dude, mad respect. Your video actually has great quality content and even though I am not handy enough to even attempt this, it was super amazing to watch. Again, amazing job!

[@octagontheshape]

I know this video is 3 years old but it taught me everything I needy to cut my corsair 100r and increase the cooling I was able to add two more fans and open the front adding the hexagon mesh. Thank you.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Great to hear! Have a great day!

[@aniqamsyarazwan5189]

Old but gold. Thanks for poppin in my recommendations.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Classic

[@Unchainedmaple888]

tbh wish it came like this from the factory, or they should at least make a high airflow variant.

[@wake1077]

This is exactly what i needed! Thank you! I swapped all my components in a different pc a few years ago because it ran hot, even shutting down for protection on long weekend gaming sessions. My pc died a few weeks ago and im currently searching parts for a new one. Ofc i will go 3080, i7 12xxx etc which means i try to save money. Newer white cases are not my taste and i always loved the H440 optics. Time to dig it out of the basement!

[@Tami9]

H440 with undervolted12900k got 79C while gaming. With removed top and front panel it drops to max 66C. Thats fking big difference! I gonna mod my H440 soon.

[@mattyfinz]

I felt like I was watching "This Old House" or something, but for PC modding. I can really tell you know what you're talking about. Great stuff and enjoyed it very much!

[@MaxellAdGuy]

I can never get enough of your video Bill, PLEASE DO MORE PC MOD VIDEO, thank.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Thank you, They're always fun to do when my time allows me.

[@nakquada]

What a fantastic mod. I'm totally doing this to my H440!

[@crazeedriver2005]

Wait, so you're actually going to sell the pre-modded panels?!

[@digitaldashproductions779]

Love this video and thanks for sharing. I'm getting the all black one today and plan on doing this. Have you got in contact with them about being able to order this yet? Also, I wanted an all glass smoked panel but you guys are all sold out on your website:(

[@xChefGutz]

Perfect!!!! I just received a H710i case and was concerned about air flow. Was thinking about something like this. And this is perfect

[@romukassa]

Really nice! Planning to do this for my old NZXT H2. It's currently sitting in my basement with even older Phenom II x4 system inside, but planning to build a Ryzen 9 next year.

[@nicholaskiciak1788]

Thank you for sharing this innovatively helpful and well-explained modification. I have this case in an unopened box that sat in a storage unit and am currently designing a custom build Gaming PC.

[@leet9873]

Just found this from a fb group. Awesome tutorial man will definitely have to do this if i get one. (hopefully next weekend)

[@rsrMean]

Great video, thanks! Just applied this to the be quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 (w/ different measurements). To everyone struggling with the sound dampening foam: a heatgun and a scraper can really save the day!

[@lord_scrubington]

great advice and fantastic product. I have been planning a mod like this for my build which is currently inside a white Matrexx 55, and this was a huge help for planning my mod.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Sounds great! and thanks for watching today!

[@nicmonberg5974]

Very nice work. What I would have done different is to have the mesh in the hole so it is flush with the front not just behind I expect you could do this easily its the same process with some bending of the mesh this is how a lot of the cases people buy have mesh put in the panels.

[@NickBaysingar]

You're the best, dude. I gotta do this to my H440 at some point. I already have the smoked acrylic window you guys make for it. That was a nice upgrade from the cheap plastic window the case came with.

[@MrScourgy]

Same here! The smoked window makes it look sooooo much better. Definitely doing this aswell at some point.

I personally have the black one but my wife has the white version, so both :)

[@NickBaysingar]

Wow I didn't see this reply until 3 months later! I personally own the white version of the H440. If you guys are seriously considering trying to get a supply of front panels from NZXT to sell modded, I would definitely buy one! Never mind, saw that you never got a response from NZXT. That's a shame. The mod seems simple enough, I'll probably do it when I have the spare time and money for the supplies.

[@Panchirito_Official]

[@misterchucker]

great work and nice result. could you notice measurable temperature improvement?

[@Nezodam]

I'm doing this to my H400. I noticed a lot of noise coming out of the side vents and it makes more sense to have an airflow grill from the front

[@MaxellAdGuy]

that's great, thanks for watching!

[@DeAtHvAnGeL]

You sould totally sell the front panel with this mod. I would buy one myself. Great video.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

[@Larongytis9999]

Argh, Bill, where were you when I actually had an H440 and wondering how to get more cool air into my build? This guide is so good. I'm gonna try and use it on my next build that's using an S340. I was curious if there's any way possible to fit an EK XE 120mm rad into an S340 at all? Thanks in advance and keep up the great videos! Your voice is weirdly soothing when you explain the process behind your techniques hahaha

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Yes, you can mount single 120mm radiator on the ceiling or front of the S340. Do you own a Black or White NZXT H440 case? I'm going to speak to NZXT about possibility of ordering H440 front panels and selling them with my grill mod here, mnpctech.com/nzxt-h440-s340-razer-replacement-custom-window-smoked-clear-red-uv-green-blue/

[@Larongytis9999]

I had a black and red H440 a few years back, I gave it to my friend when he got his first AIO. Also, I don't mean to sound snobby, but I was aware of the mounting areas, I was curious as if they'll still be good spots to out the EK XE 120mm because of the rad's thickness. It's their thickest rad out I believe, even thicker than their XTX lineup

[@PeterM0911]

Bill, you are the best!

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Thank you Peter! Do you have an H440 case, too?

[@foxunitdelta75]

looks nice and easy but i don't have a jigsaw, could the entire cutout be done with a dremel?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

sure, would just take more time

[@B4NTO]

That gap at the top of this NZXT H440 dont seem to exist on mine. I'm guessing this is the new release with the improved Fan Hub?

[@Coxis67]

How do you make the cut so straigth? I have a jigsaw, but whenever I've tried to use it I can't get them as straigth as you. The blade itself bends a little.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Use a new 18 TPI bimetal jigsaw blade. Run the Jigsaw metal guide along a Measuring Square you've tapped down with Masking tape.

[@Aj-fc7cz]

Nice vid Bill. Good info.......... Thanks, AJ

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Thanks AJ, any builds or projects in the works?

[@Gotallofthem1]

Great Video question, do you think it is possible to do the same mode but instead of putting a mesh in the center to put a Acrylic Window? I have a case with fans in the front like this, but they are blocked by the solid Plastic case. If it is possible, any chance of you making a video on a how too? Thank you.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Just apply the same steps as shown in this guide, Thanks again for watching!

[@Gotallofthem1]

Thanks will do.

[@blobmcfish6097]

Can you put a link for what wheel on the rotary wheel you were using

[@MaxellAdGuy]

surething, www.mnpctech.com/products/dremel-426-reinforced-cut-off-wheels?_pos=1&_sid=2ac2f8027&_ss=r

[@iamtecho]

Am I overthinking it? Want to do the same on my inwin 301, front panel. Here my issue it’s mostly a solid case, should try an remove the rivits to make the front panel a singal and Easter to work on or just cut it as one? Any other tips for cutting straight? Thanks and appreciate it.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Yes, removing the panel would be easier. Practice on something else first, so you get feel for cutting straight.

[@robg9971]

You can make one the same for Nzxt manta White?

[@joshua41175]

Did this leave you enough room for fans outside the case so you could use a rad and all the HDD cages?

[@ohlmntt]

Really wish I could find a guide like this out there for the s340 or s340 elite

[@MaxellAdGuy]

apply the same technique as this guide, creating new guide would be redundant. you'll be fine.

[@Mawa1979]

Would it be ok to use the U Channel rubber edging to give it a cleaner look? Would the epoxy be ok with it?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Yes, the DP-190 epoxy works with rubber, too. Good luck with your modding venture!

[@adamhahler4205]

Loved the video! Any tips for an alternative adhesive to use? I really don’t want to spend that much on a specialty adhesive and gun that will only get used this one time.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

check out GOOP brand adhesives.. Thanks for watching - www.mnpctech.com

[@jdbarney]

Contemplating applying a "u-channel" edge molding to the opening in the front bezel, but the type you sell on your site would not handle the roughly 4.2mm thickness of the combined metal / plastic on the H440 front bezel. Any thoughts on a source for a similar product that could be applied to the thicker material? Most of what I see online (Amazon) is for automotive.

[@assasine75]

I'll be using a drill instead of a rotary tool to make the opening for the jigsaw. Excellent guide though! Can't wait to get it done on my H440.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

that works too, thanks for watching, Keep on Modding!

[@r3tr0b0y6]

How many fans are there in the case ?

[@SirAndras]

Just found this video and wouldn't mind modding my Define 7 Compact, but the problem is, there's no filter on the inside, just filters for those side intakes. What kind of filter could I get to put in there instead? I mean, I should technically be able to get some other cases filter if the size matches somewhat, no? Worst case, make my own?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Use these filters for each fan, www.mnpctech.com/products/computer-power-supply-psu-fan-filters?_pos=2&_sid=fe019aaf1&_ss=r

Where would you get the filter at for that dimension? I didnt see a link for that

[@Grimmdus]

Did you clean and paint the bare inside cut edge?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

No, but you could do that if needed.

[@TalesOfWar]

Fantastic job, it looks like it came from the factory like this! Given I lack all the tools for this it'd be cheaper for me to just buy a whole new case which is annoying. My temps aren't terrible but they're higher than I'm used to, but then thats partly down to newer Intel chips running stupid hot. It's like we've gone back to the P4 days. Interestingly enough the reason they ran hot was because they were also rushed to market, thanks to AMD being competitive! It's amazing how history repeats itself! It would be nice if they offered different front and top panels like they do side panels. A missed opportunity there methinks.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Very good points, thanks for commenting! Thank you, Bill at www.mnpctech.com

[@control_the_pet_population]

I wouldn't necessarily call it a missed opportunity. The case was designed around noise reduction, not temperature reduction. Essentially any case that advertises interior foam sound insulation is telling you that they wrapped your PC components in a nice toasty blanket. Removing the foam and cutting holes in it will improve temps, but it defeats the original design intent. At that point, you should have just bought a different case from the get-go. All that said, I think NZXT made a common sense and very simple workaround... When you wish for airflow over noise insulation, you just pop-off the front panel. That's what I do with my H440 and it's the best of both worlds. Thermals aren't outstanding compared to more mesh covered cases that don't have foam insulation... but my GPU temps drop by 5-7c under gaming load and motherboard components stay within very respectable ranges. The front to back airflow is solid with the panel removed. When I'm done gaming and want the silence, pop the panel back into place. I don't see a reason to permanently sacrifice a good chunk of the sound deadening properties when the only time temps become a concern is under heavy load.

[@Christian_1605]

i just cut a square hole in my sharkoon bw 9000.. always had a watercooler at the top so the heat dissipated instantly.., but now my build is almost 5 years old so i went for an air cooler and i instantly noticed that heat was building up in my system.. Never going for a solid frontpanel case again..😅

[@Weech.]

Thanks for this! I recently installed an x62. It wouldn't fit up top due to clearance issues with my mobo VRM. Ended up having​ to front mount it. Opening the front panel makes my temps drop about 10c! with the the front panel on my GPU gets uncomfortably hot. I have 2 Noctua iPPC 2ks on the rad and it doesn't help much.

Thank you for answering, but I can't afford to buy and stock every color combination. sorry. I will try and commit to all Black & White, if NZXT is willing to let me purchase inventory.

[@Weech.]

Bill Owen it's alright i fully understand. thanks for looking out for us who dont have the tools or dont feel confident doing something like this! I appreciate the tutorial video as well!

[@chungbung9976]

what are some other epoxy you can use that you can find in stores? Thinking about doing this mod to my H500

[@MaxellAdGuy]

yes, E6000 adhesive.

[@Armfan99]

Bill would meshing the top or front result in lower temps? I want to do this but would want to find a nice dust filter to go with it.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Yes, meshing the front helps lower temps. The H440 already has a front dust filter. "Meshing the top" will depend on individual system configurations.

[@spike229]

My new gpu is creating a ton of heat in my h440 and suffocating itself. Do you have a suggestion for adding a fan intake to the plastic window on the side of the case? I'm worried about cracking the window when cutting through the material.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

[@pandacommanda2694]

How would u go about doing this to the top panel of the Phanteks Evolv TG? Would you do anything different?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

I would take same approach, but expect the cutting process to be much more time involving as all Phanteks EVOLV top and front covers are 1/8" (3mm) thick aluminum. The H440 only required ONE cut-off wheel for the Dremel, but the EVOLV may need two.

[@pandacommanda2694]

Thank you for the reply. Might be attempting this soon.

[@stevebittner9163]

Bill Owen Dremel makes a cut wheel especially for aluminum that last a lot longer then the steel ones just a little FYI. Bill I think you did a great video and I meant no disrespect when I bashed you about the square measurement. Please keep making these bad ass videos!! Later....you the man! My idol and mentor I try to do my projects with the attitude of how would Bill Owen do this mod.

[@udirt]

really nice guide, thank you!

[@djfunzdjfunz]

I have this case and I've seen so many mods for it, it makes me wonder why NZXT doesn't just refresh this case to include better airflow and a full tempered glass side panel.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

agreed. Your questions shared by many people. Thanks for sharing!

[@NickBaysingar]

They'd be better off just doing a whole new case based off this design. That's kind of what they have been doing though. In fact, OTHER case manufacturers took notes from this particular case. The built in PSU shroud, the angled edge of the motherboard tray, the fan hub behind the tray. This case kind of popularized those features. But yeah, it would be super cool if they made an alternative front panel with a grill on it that we could just buy separately and swap out with the original. But this mod seems simple enough. You just need the right tools for it.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

After cutting opening, Use a hand file with masking tape alone edge as guideline, as I illustrated in the video, and just file the edges until even with the tape. If you still want u-channel, you can use this wide rubber trim, but it will require gluing to the edges, mnpctech.com/case-mods-gaming-pc-liquid-modding-custom-computer-mnpctech-overclock-cooling-fan-grills/u-channel-pc-computer-window-rubber-trim-molding-cable-management/xbox-360-custom-window-molding-6ft.html

I’m not big on the whole power tools thing but by god I’m going to figure it out and do something like this to my phanteks case. Thank you for the guide; it will be very helpful. Where did you get the sweet ass form fitted dust filter for your fans? Did that come with the case/fans?

How do you know when to do wet sanding?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

Wet Sanding isn't necessary when using Gloss Paint over mesh.

[@aurimasknieza7320]

Bill Owen, but wet sanding method is used sometimes for pc modding right? I helped dad wetsanding and preparing a car for painting few times and thought that wet sanding is best preparation way

[@tebius82]

could you write me the measure in meters where cut the front panel?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

You can covert measurements here, www.worldwidemetric.com/measurements.html

[@joshbrown4397]

Does this significantly increase noise levels? Quite like the quiet aspect of the case but don't want to sacrifice airflow haha. Also, any cheaper alternatives to epoxy?

[@MaxellAdGuy]

not that we noticed, but you can always get lower dBA fans... E6000 glue

[@Naaackers]

Hey there Bill, Awesome mod. I have two s340 elite cases I'd like to do this mod on. However, I have one hesitation. I'm not confident I can make the cuts on the front of the case and keep it clean. Is there anything you can suggest doing to the boarders of the sheet metal for a clean look after cutting? Or would you recommend just trying to re-paint the entire face of it again after making the cuts. Thanks for your time and this video.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

You can use a hand file to clean up and straighten the cut edges. Use masking tape as guide for your the filing.

I'd like to try it on my h700

Great idea!

[@BundymaniaReviews]

Nice and effective little mod

[@t0mbd1gg3r]

Did you do any before/after temp measurements? I'm planning to buy a used H440 for only about $33. Does it worth it? Currently I have a Cooler Master CM690 II, I'm afraid of airflow but with this mod it will be great I guess.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

10 - 12 degree difference after modification depending upon application being used. The Cooler Master CM690 II already has exceptionally good ventilation, so if you're experimenting cooling issues, you need to swap out the factory fans to fans with higher static pressure, like Corsair SP-series, Scythe Gentle Typhoons or Fractal Design Venturi HP series. Setup fans for positive pressure configuration. Install all fans, but rear exhaust as intakes, so you're pushing out the warm air. Bill at Mnpctech

[@t0mbd1gg3r]

@@MaxellAdGuy Thank you for your reply. I decided to go for a Cooler Master MasterBox NR400 instead. Same price (about $33) but instead of 5 years old it is 3 months old only. Also smaller, glass and good ventilation.

[@marcogarciadeleon5840]

Its amazing. Can you do an airflow mod to the nzxt h400i? Its the case i use.

[@MaxellAdGuy]

I don't have one, sorry. Thanks for watching and Have great day! Bill - www.mnpctech.com
