You could wait for the qk60 too, that is dropping next quarter. That is the only thing I would recommend as an alternative. Additionally, their is the mode envoy since it is a 65%, but it will take a while to ship too.

The nk65 is one I would not recommend due to it just being too barebones of a design and the value not being there.

The q2 is good, but it is also a bit of an industrial design, very angular yet not as clean as the tofu.

Tofu 2.0 is a great value and honeslty, if you want to get it now it isn't a bad option. Only alternate if you want to buy now is the envoy. I would look it up and do more research. (make sure to also look at the qk60, though it is a 60%).

those are beefy specs. My only issue with this case is that gpus nowadays are getting really big, so it might not be good for upgrading down the line. the second is that the psu is 750 watt, and i’d prefer if it was 850.

my gpu will be fine, i’m taking a 3070 with me and planning to use that for now and waiting for a worthwhile upgrade (since 4000 series are badly priced). just unsure if i should buy this case or something else.

also how’s the bottom io port situation? do you find it annoying? do any cables (like gpu cables) not fit or are too long?

thanks a lot

The H1 comes with a 140mm aio and a 750w gold psu pre-installed and ready for plug and play which makes it very easy to put everything together. Just get your Mobo, ram, storage, and cpu in and plug in everything. Then slap on a GPU and you’re good!

As for specs: -EVGA 3090 ftw3 ultra -AMD 5900x -Asus ROG Strix B550i -64gb Patriot Viper DDR4 3600 mhz -2TB NVME Samsung 980 pro

Thermals have been really good as well. Though I do undervolt my GPU (only slightly) and my cpu is stock.

It's a pretty standard board. It just comes with plate foam and a silicone insert on the bottom. I wish it had more foam options or something, but for clearance price it was a good deal. I would never spend full price on it as it has a basic mounting style and doesn't really look that premium. I haven't typed on it at all yet as it's on a PC that I don't use as much, but from what I've used I prefer my tiger80 tbh. The selling point is at $150 it comes with everything you need except keycaps, other than that I would avoid the NK87 unless you love the shape and exact color.

If someone is debating spending $300 on the NK87, please don't. Just save up $100 more and buy a mode sonnet as it is so much more premium. If you NEED a TKL, then browse r/mechmarket and buy a mode eighty (I got one for $300 with switches and an extra plate).

Just my two cents you never really asked for. Whatever you have, just love what you have.
