None come to mind
Cooling capability could be better
Fans are not silent at full speed
USB 3.0 front panel solution a bit kludgy

Space can get tight
Apart from the HDD installation
Door doesn't open all the way
Too many black thumbscrews???
Only one USB 3.0 port
Which plugs into the rear I/O panel
Routing Cables Behind The Tray Requires Longer Power Supply Cables
Longer Graphics Cards May Limit Use Of Some Hard Drive Bays

This is one excellent case. Its syling might be classic and a few average Joe’s may consider £80 too much to spend on a case, but for everyone else this is one you simply must take a peak at when buying a new chassis. Its got good cooling that’s quiet...
There is a lot to like about NZXT's new H2 case and that starts with a main body which feels very solid. The steel construction had no noticeable defects or flimsy sections and other than one minor blemish on the inside (unique to our sample) the pain...
Professional looks, Available in black or white, Noise reduction via foam dampening, 3 speed fan control, Lots of space behind the motherboard tray, Great thermal performance
HDD frame pins sometimes need tapping in, Cannot support graphics cards 11"+
What can you expect from NZXT's H2? Well, the H2 is from the 'Classic' series and is named the 'Silent Midtower" because of its approach to noise dampening and the ability to switch between 3 different fan speeds on-the-fly via the front panel. In the...
