HAVN HS 420 VGPU review - pure elegance in PC case form
A relative newcomer to the PC case scene, things started with a bang for HAVN. Its debut case is the HS 420, which is a premium, super-stylish case with a striking wraparound curved glass front panel. It's the HAVN HS 420 VGPU we're looking at here, which as its name suggests is a variant that is dedicated to having your graphics card mounted in a vertical orientation. It looks unique both inside and out, and is dripping with cutting-edge features while having massive cooling potential. It all adds up to a PC case that's perfect for a high-end gaming PC.In fact, it's enough to earn this HAVN offering a spot on our best PC case guide. All this comes at a price, though, as you wont see much change from $300. However, we doubt youd ever need another case. Offering a dedicated vertical GPU version of the case means everything you need to mount you card this way is included, such as a PCIe 5.0 riser cable and rotated rear bracket plus an angled bottom fan mount. These arent included with the standard case, but are available separately should you wish to convert it, and they are the main reason the VGPU Edition is $70 more expensive.The case supports up to E-ATX motherboards and has massive room for expansion when it comes to cooling. Given the price, its likely only going to appeal to those that have already spent well north of $1,000 on their graphics card, otherwise your cash would be much better spent on boosting frame rates, processor power, or storage, unless getting the look provided here is really that important to you. We've put the case through its paces, testing for build quality, ease of installation, cooling and noise, to find out just where this expensive case does and doesn't justify its price.Read the full story on PCGamesN: HAVN HS 420 VGPU review - pure elegance in PC case form
