Should I transition from H1v1 to a Terra? (self.sffpc)

Like my H1 for its footprint but am tired of its thermals. Don’t want the OG meshlicious or the Meshroom because of the shady crap SSUPD pulled with cheating the designer. Was waiting for the FF01 to come out but the Terra came out of nowhere and I’m seriously considering it. It’s a sweet little case and looks great to work in.

Anybody make the move into a Terra from an H1? If so, do you feel like it was a worthwhile switch despite the loss of desk real estate?

Yeah, I do. Don’t love it’s proportions and I already have a deep cool gamerstorm 240 rad from when my build was in a NZXT H210. That’s definitely not fitting in the a4 h20 since the pump block is so tall. Figured if I needed to buy a new cooler, might as well try air cooling out this time.

Interesting. From what little I’ve read in reviews, it doesn’t seem like the panels obstruct airflow too much and reviewers were finding that the temps are similar with or without panels. All of that to say that perhaps top exhaust fans wouldn’t be missed with the Terra.

The next question is what color will the terra build be 😅

Like both the jade and the silver but the jade is sold out everywhere and for some dumb reason, Micro Center is selling the silver for $40 more than Newegg 👀. Think I’ll wait a bit for the jade to restock and for the FF01 to come out too as that’s the other case I’m keenly interested in. Then I’ll pick something. Better to have all the options on the table.
