    Best 7-fan case? H440 vs. Define S?

    Hello,

    I do not have direct experience with either of these cases, and I'm curious which one would be better for an air-cooling setup. I have built and modded systems with vertical CPU airflow and noise-optimized fan setups. The Define S has an eighth fan slot in the bottom panel which I would also use. I assume I can use PWM control.

    Has anyone built a system with either of these? (Note I would get the H440 revision edition which has the PWM controller and double bay fittings). Which one provides better cooling? Is there a significant noise difference?

    Are there any issues with either case that would be important drawbacks? And is there another well-designed case lacking external drive bays that could be used for a 7 fan setup?

    Thanks if you have any experience with either case.

    H440 sucks, you'll be starved of air.
