All around the same price range but MA620P cheapest and H7 Quad Lumi most expensive of the three. While not included in the title, H5 Ultimate is also same price as the Universal.
While I like the MA620P because of the RGB and "badass" looking because dual-tower, its design is not as refined imo vs the Cryorigs, not to mention it covers up 3 ram slots which I'm hoping to be RGB.
H5 Ultimate will have clearance issue with the rams I'm considering, Team Night Hawk or TridentZ RGB or Aorus RGB. H5 Universal will not.
H7 Quad Lumi is basically H7 with 4 heatpipes. Also like the RGB.
Now the most important part. My case is an old In Win Mana 136. It's so old that the official spec doesn't bother to list the maximum cpu cooler height like any modern case spec. But I've found two contradictory info on the topic. This guy says that 15.2cm is the limit. While this reviewer says 15.6cm limit with side-panel fans and 17.6cm without. I find the reviewer hard to believe. It's a $50 case from almost a decade ago. Even some modern case top out at less. I did a sloppy measure with a scale from the surface of the the current motherboard and there's somewhat 16.5cm space. Enough of that anyway. I know my case might not fit the coolers I mentioned above except the H7 Quad Lumi. I am already determined to keep the side panel off if need be. How negatively might the semi open case affect temp? Dust is a variable either way because we're a dusty place already and I've acclimatised to clean up dust every few months.
