Noctua Case Review & Benchmarks: Thermals, Noise, Cable Management | Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition

Episode Title: "Noctua Case Review & Benchmarks: Thermals, Noise, Cable Management | Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition"
Content: Sponsor: Arctic MX-7 Thermal Paste on Amazon https://geni.us/WbHJ This review of the Antec x Noctua Flux Pro looks at thermals, build quality, fan performance of the NF-A12 G2 and NF-A14 G2 fans, and value versus the Antec Flux Pro, HAVN BF 360 Flow, HYTE X50, Lian Li Lancool 217, and other cases on the market. The Antec Flux Pro Noctua Edition is, ultimately, a Flux Pro (review linked below) but with Noctua fans and accessories, including a nicer fan hub, a keychain, some extensions, and brown colorway applied to the case. At $400, it's brutally expensive. You'll get comparable performance from plenty of other cases (including the Antec Flux Pro) for cheaper, so this mostly comes down to Noctua itself.
