HAVN BF 360 FLOW WHITE BUILD
Second ever build and it feels surreal having this PC in my room 🤩🤩🤩


Second ever build and it feels surreal having this PC in my room 🤩🤩🤩
Hello
I’m planning to switch my ROG Astral RTX 5090 to vertical mounting in my HS420 (VGPU version). The card is a beast and I’ve seen a few builds where heavy 5090s (especially Astral) sag noticeably to the right/outer side when mounted vertically. 
Right now I’m running it horizontally with the official HAVN horizontal sag bracket, which works great.
My question is:
Can I keep using the horizontal sag bracket (or repurpose it) to support the right/outer edge of the card once I go vertical?
Has anyone tried this or something similar? Will it fit properly without interfering with the vertical mount bracket, riser, or side panel?
Any photos, tips, or experiences with Astral 5090 vertical setups in HAVN cases would be awesome, especially regarding long-term sag prevention, clearance, and aesthetics. I’m mostly worried about the card’s weight stressing the riser and the GPU.
Thanks in advance!
I’m currently installing a HAVN vGPU bracket and have hit a snag. At the bracket's lowest adjustment setting, my GPU sits too high. However, when I remove the extension piece to lower it, the bracket becomes too short and the support arm starts pressing directly against the GPU’s card.
Has anyone else dealt with this? Are there any common workarounds or alternative mounting methods to get the height just right? It’s a 5080 asus astral for the graphic card
Amd 9800X3D (already have it)
Msi Rtx 5090 Trio
Msi X870 Gaming Plus Wifi (already have it)
64gb Trident Z5 Neo DDR5-6000
4TB Msi M480 Ssd x2
Corsair Ax1600i (already have it)
Msi Meg S360 AIO (already have it) + 3x NF-A12X25
3 X Nf-A14X25 G2 Front Fan +1 X Nf-A12X25 G2 Rear Fan
Finally i finished this build and love it. Max fan rpm is 600, dead silent even in 4k gaming. 50-55 degree cpu, 55-58 degree gpu
Modded my case so that I could do the BTF motherboard and I must say it turned out great. Now. The problem I have is the damn AIO hoses. The build looks phenomenal and I even ordered some black sheet magnets to cover up the old holes for the cables. I wanna keep my GPU vertical so air cooling isn’t really a option.
UPDATE! Was able to route my AIO tubes above the motherboard where my CPU power cables would have been.
Situation. I bought a 360 flow. But it's too big and doesn't fit on the table. I had to return it. I asked on Instagram if they were planning to release something smaller and got a cryptic answer that waiting is always rewarded. Do you think they will release something smaller in the near future?
Recently used the HAVN BF360 with 2 additional H18 fans in top (front is intake, rear exhaust) and experienced vibration of the front grill at some fan speeds. Applying slight pressure to the grill with my hand or removing the grill entirely would stop the noise.
I ended up putting some 3m foam tape at contact points between the grill and case along the bottom edge of both the grill and case and it seems to have eliminated the issue.
I wish the case came with a PORON or silicon gasket for the front grill instead of having to do this mod.
First every PC build, went big with it but there is one thing i would change. The first thing i knew i wanted was the Havn HS420 case, the moment i saw it i knew i would use it. It is way bigger and heavier than i thought. The my main purpose of this build was to have a solid PC for gaming and something to last me for a good few years going forward. It has Asus Geforce RTX 5070Ti, 32GB Corsair low latency RAM, MSI motherboard & 850w power supply, and an NZXT watercooler, all probably a bit overkill and mismatched but is what it is. Being a PC, i will upgrade and swap out parts. I had to be careful with budget having build this in the great RAMpocolipse. The last thing i budgeted for was fans and my god was i caught off guard by prices for solid RGB fans. I bought a bunch of Arctic non RGB 140 mm fans as i know the 420 fits them, but I decided i wanted RGB's, particularly the Lian Li look, and found these 120 mm Asia Horse fans on Amazon for waaay cheaper (£20 for 3 whereas Lian Li was £25+ each). The fans make the build look a bit off compared to all the other build here which are sporting 140 mm's, but i will upgrade them later. Otherwise, I am quite happy with this dark knight of a build. Even has Lewis Hamiltons W11 chilling in there. Thoughts? Go easy, i'm new to this.
Can’t get enough of this build!
Maybe someone with two extra h18 fans have time to do temp tests, or did already and can share results.
test1: stock fan setup, test2: add one h18 on top as exhaust, test3: add second h18 on top as intake(exhaust+intake top setup).
There are reviewers tests where they add two h18 on top for like 3c improvement on gpu temps, but i cant find any with just adding a single h18 as exhaust. How would that be. Extra one as intake is it just for looks, maybe it doesn’t improve anything after you put one for exhaust. Test would be something like running superposition game mode 4k for 15 minutes with some cpu stress test in background.
I want to share my final setup with you, guys! It Is build all with Noctua NF A14 G2 Chromax! What do you think?
Although I'm late to the party, I finally finished my Havn BF360 Flow buildout with the following specs. Overall, building in this case was a breeze, and I look forward to future iterations (hopefully one with a solid side-panel option, please). I plan to follow up with thermals at some point, including a comparison to the Fractal Torrent.
AMD 9950x3d
Nvidia RTX 5090 FE
Asus 870e HERO Motherboard
64gb Trident Z5 Neo DDR5-6000 CL26
2TB Corsair T705 Gen5 NVMe SSD
Seasonic GX-1200w PSU
CableMod RT-Series ModMesh
Corsair Nautilus 360mm AIO
I opted to use all HAVN fans for the build...
2x 180mm Intake
1x 140mm exhaust (rear)
3x 120mm exhaust (top)
Now I just need a slightly longer 12vhwpr cable, in order to clean up the cable management job on the backside. For those curious, no the power cable does not touch the GPU.
Hey everyone,
I just finished mounting my GPU vertically, but something looks off. It doesn't seem to sit parallel with the glass panel or the airflow fans below it. I can't tell if the bracket is sagging under the weight or if I just aligned something wrong during the install.
Has anyone dealt with a vertical mount leaning outward or sitting at an angle? Not sure how to confirm if it’s seated correctly.
3 weeks ago or so I finally made the move into the HS420 VGPU, but forgot to share to the official sub, sorry fellas!
Im having a mechanical issue with my current build. The lower white plate is too narrow to properly mount my riser cable. I need to widen the base to safely support the GPU’s weight, butim curious if there’s an aftermarket holder or extension that works with the stock VGPU mount?
I need to shift the GPU toward the front panel to clear my RAM fan and Q-DIMM. Im struggling to come up with a clean solution while im stuck at work.. any suggestions would be awesome
so ive changed out the angled bottom fan bracket for the flat fan bracket and using a small 8 inch screen as a sensor panel and the temperatures on idle for 9800x3d and 4080 super are 4 degrees lower than with the angled bracket.
I just cant stop staring at this shit 20 times a day. theres really no other case that even comes close to what HAVN did with this 😂
Pulled an Aorus mobo and a Corsair Titan LCD AIO from a PC I was flipping and swapped them in. Looks better but still probably will end up with a Tryx Panorama at some point.
I swapped my pc back into my doom case cuz one the evo xl is a good case but at the same time I do like all white builds but they do get kind of repetitive but with this one I can still fit 420 rads 140 fans and it’s still very spacey plus the car itself looks sick
Thinking about adding some character and using this for its multi directional use. Already have one in my O11 EVO XL and it has my card tilting forward and wanted to know can we do the same here. I understand the VGPU already comes with one and will use it if it's the only option.
