This case was a replacement for a mistake I made with my personal rig years back. I followed a trend which I normally would not do and built in the NZXT H400. Not a terrible case but poor airflow.
My i9 9900k and RTX 2070 didn't suffer in the NZXT at all. In fact CPU idle temps hung around 32c with a 68-72f room temp. However, under extreme loads with a mild overclock I would see my CPU rise to mid 60s and GPU do the same. Well within safety zone but not what I wanted from a system cooled by a 280 radiator.
After re--building in the North I saw a drastic drop in CPU and GPU idle temps. CPU at 22c and GPU at 24c. Under load I am seeing peak temps in the mid 50s. I am using the factory case fans with the rad as intake, 2x 140mm corsair LL140 fans as top exhaust and a Noctua industrial 120mm as rear exhaust.
I plan to upgrade all fans to Noctua industrial shortly.
The North is very easy to build in and offers reasonable cable management room in the back.

I'll start with the design. In my opinion, it is one of the best minimalist designs I have seen.
But the quality... Don't get me wrong, the metal is very dense, the glass is good, the meshes and other elements are generally well made. But everything regarding screws (in any part of the case) is simply terrible. Any screws are very tight. Many of the holes seem to be slightly offset. Every time I have to press the side covers very tightly to screw or unscrew them. I had the same problems with the screws for the power supply frame, and with any other removable components. It was especially unpleasant to screw in the video card. The holes for it were quite displaced. The motherboard also had one hole displaced, but in the end I was able to screw it in.
The last thing I want to talk about is the side panel fan mount. This may be obvious to some, but it only goes into the mesh version of the sidebar.
In conclusion, I want to say that this is a fairly good case, it has all the necessary features for a good build. If you are ready to put up with some of the disadvantages that I voiced, then take it without thinking. It's really well designed and has plenty of room for cables, cooling and a video card. So I'm willing to put up with some shortcomings for the sake of design. I just think for the price it could be of better quality.

Die Funktionalität des Gehäuses ist ebenfalls beeindruckend.

10/10
El montaje de la caja se ve de muy buena calidad, es muy fácil de ensamblar el equipo gracias a la gestión de cables que trae integrada.
No destaca precisamente por ser silenciosa ya que el frontal es completamente abierto con un filtro de polvo y la parte superior es chapa perforada para que pueda salir el flujo de aire caliente. Gracias a que no es la más silenciosa, el flujo de aire me parece genial (sin ser un experto).
Si buscas una caja con estética nórdica, sin lucecitas y con un buen flujo de aire, esta es tu caja!
