The NZXT H5 Flow is a brand new PC case with a very weird fan. The H5 Flow has a basement fan, no front fans, and an MSRP of $95 and release date of October 25, 2022. This review and benchmark of the NZXT H5 Flow (and the H5 Elite shares most the features) tests vs. the Fractal Pop Air, Phanteks alternatives, and Corsair alternatives. Cases under $100 for budget gaming PC builds (or mid-range builds) have become abundant and quality has skyrocketed in recent years, meaning many alternatives for the best PC cases for airflow or noise control.
