Which case gets warmer? Because im sure that the R4 is more silent. Also, would a Asus geforce gtx 670 2GB and a cooler master hyper 212 evo cpu cooler, fit in both of these cases? The h440, obviously looks way better, but I have seen so many reviews saying that the R4 is better? Is this true, thanks for any answers, much appreciated. :)

The NZXT H440 will be the best option IMO, mainly because I did plenty of research and my one will be arriving soon. :D

Just to keep in mind that the NZXT H440 doesn't have a 5.25' bay for the optical drive. So if you are installing Windows, you could either download a media onto a bootable drive OR buy an external optical drive.

Hope this helps.

The H440, while having great build quality and looks, was not executed well. Fans struggle to get air out of the top, and the hot air gets trapped in there, which is a serious problem when using a waterloop or aio. The back is absolutely horrible in terms of cable management. The fan hub makes all the fans run at their max rpm, which wouldn't have been too hard for them to include pwm support. The Fractal Design Define R4 (and especially the Define R5) have non of these issues.
