NZXT H5 Flow (2024)
The 2024 H5 Flow refresh expands front radiator and motherboard options over earlier H5 Flow revisions and adds a pair of bottom 120 mm fan positions. This page is specific to the 2024-generation shell; do not transfer its 360 mm front support or E-ATX compatibility to the preceding H5 Flow without checking that model’s specification.
MODEL SCOPE: Specifications describe the named enclosure generation, not every visually similar case or retail bundle. Published maximums are component-envelope limits; verify the exact SKU, installed fans/radiators, connectors, and manufacturer manual before purchase or assembly.

Fit notes for this layout
The sloped PSU-shroud airflow arrangement associated with earlier H5 generations is not a substitute for checking the 2024 bottom-fan mounts. Front and top radiator dimensions describe the mounting envelope, not guaranteed clearance for every thick radiator/fan combination.
- The front 360 mm radiator position is the defining refresh change; measure the combined radiator-and-fan stack against GPU length.
- The 280 mm roof option is clearance-sensitive: use the manufacturer’s memory-height and radiator-thickness conditions, not just the radiator label.
- Storage is intentionally sparse at one 3.5-inch and two 2.5-inch drives; plan SATA cabling and drive placement before routing the PSU harness.
