Havn HS 360 review
The Havn HS 360 only improves on the winning formula of the HS 420. It's a little smaller, and it's easier to build into, but it's not a whole lot cheaper. Still, it's undoubtedly one of the best-looking mid-tower cases in the biz.

The Havn HS 360 is a familiar sight. More or less the same design as the company's first case, the HS 420, it's just a touch smaller. That's no bad thing; the HS 420 earned a 90% score from me due to its ability to hide most of the ugliness that comes with the usual pile of cables and connectors behind its retro futurist style facade. I feel just as positively about this slightly shrunken version too.
The HS 360 is available in two versions, with or without vertical GPU mounting; and two colours, black or white. I've here two cases for review, covering all the options, and I've decided to put them to the test with rival builds. Namely to get a feel for the process of building with the different GPU mounting solutions, but also satiate my longstanding desire to build yin and yang gaming PCs. Dark and light. AMD and Nvidia.
I had a really good time with the HS 360. Both times. It has a few limitations to be aware of, especially regarding fan size, but select the right parts and a build comes together very easily. Both of my builds have come out looking stunning, and while I'd like to take all the credit, the HS 360 made very light work of cable management and overall aesthetics.
I definitely have a favourite from my two PCs, and the reasons why are down to the HS 360. So let's talk about the case in greater detail.
✅ Your PC has pride of place on your desk: The HS 360 looks fantastic and importantly isn't as huge as the HS 420.
❌ You can't spare more of your budget for fans: There are no fans included with the HS 360, which makes its high price tag even higher for a complete build.
