Hardware Canucks finds clever glass and fiddly brackets in HAVN's case
The HS 360 review pairs airflow engineering with a hands-on build that exposes some unnecessarily complicated storage mounts.

The Most Over Engineered Case and I LOVE IT
Things we can learn from the video
Press to jump
- 2:00Glass airflow dividers redirect hot air away from the GPU.
- 5:10The cable-management bracket converts for back-connect motherboards, but screws and rubber grommets make the process fiddly.
- 7:05Multi-piece storage brackets complicate installing SSDs and a hard drive.
- 10:07The vertical GPU installation uses the included PCIe 5.0 riser and bottom glass airflow shroud.
- 14:03Noise-normalized benchmarks examine the balance between GPU and CPU temperatures.
- 15:38The host questions the price despite his enthusiasm for the case's engineering.
Removing the curved glass earns a compliment. Mounting two SSDs earns a complaint. Hardware Canucks' only new upload this week finds plenty to admire in HAVN's HS 360 cases, without pretending every extra piece of engineering makes building easier.
In "The Most Over Engineered Case and I LOVE IT", the host unboxes the standard and vertical-GPU editions, strips them down and builds inside. Glass divider plates redirect air around the graphics card, while rubber mounts and a configurable cable-management bracket show how much attention has gone into the details. Then come the fiddly screws, tight grommets and multi-piece drive brackets. "Seriously, for two SSDs, this is overly complicated," he says.
The cooling tests give that complexity a more persuasive purpose. Under noise-normalized testing, he praises the VGPU model's graphics-card temperatures while examining the trade-offs for CPU cooling. Price remains a sticking point. Viewers pick up the same tension: some discuss the build quality and vibration damping, while others focus on cleaning, missing controls and whether cooling gains justify elaborate construction.
The review has reached roughly 143,000 views and is the channel's strongest daily draw. October's RTX Spark laptop comparison remains active too, while "Apple M5 Ultra vs The Fastest PC" has passed a million views.
Across the channel, the week brought about a million views, with subscribers unchanged. Daily viewing is running above its usual level. Nearby in tech, Flossy Carter and TechLinked are also having busier-than-usual days; LGR is closer to its normal rhythm. For Hardware Canucks, the fresh subject is the enclosure itself, right down to the screws that make an otherwise thoughtful case harder to assemble.

What viewers say
The BMW 5 series of cases. Overengineered for no reason at all, but you can't help but want and love it.
@MTLoveridgeSee it on YouTubeThese cases are becoming a fan exhibition...
@rasicaphoto6450See it on YouTubeWhat this white case has made me realize is I really want a black/white colour finish. All black on the inside so your black/grey hardware matches, but the outer panels are all white.

The build quality is really good, makes most other cases feel cheap!
@PcCentricSee it on YouTubeWhile I dislike missing reset button and drive activity leds on IO for cases, atleast Havn is going all out with rubber vibration dampeners on their cases including for drive mounts and more importantly they do include support for more than 1x 3.5" drive.
@ChaitanyaShukla2503See it on YouTubeWish they made a micro or itx case
@StigmaruSee it on YouTubethat looks like a pain to clean and rebuild
@teethashaquan5395See it on YouTubeI absolutely love my HAVN 420 non VGPU. Works perfect for my watercooled build that has 2x 360 and 1x 240 radiators.
@JD-ef1jbSee it on YouTubeThey put so much thought into everything, but man they should have made a dust filter for back fan(by CPU/back IO). Still an amazing case regardless!

What does SSD stand for in PC storage?
An SSD is a solid-state drive, using electronic storage rather than a hard drive's spinning magnetic platters.
