NZXT tries to win back fans with the launch of H1 V2
NZXT launched a new version of the H1 PC case. This was well-reviewed but had a few problems, including one with the PCIe riser that turned out to be rather serious and could lead to a fire. The company handled this problem by issuing a recall and offering PCIe riser replacements for owners, but it also worked on version 2.0 to really move things forward.
The GPU has been bumped to 750W which should be able to handle more demanding GPUs. An extra USB-A port is present on the front I/O, and a new preinstalled fan controller lets you monitor and control cooling using NZXT CAM software. The original was on our best PC cases list and this revised version looks to improve mostly everything we complained about.
If you’re looking for a new case for a small, compact PC build, this is a solid choice. The NZXT H1 V2 will be available in the U.S. for $400 towards the end of February, but you can buy one right now elsewhere.
