Around HAVN BF360 Flow

HAVN BF 360 Flow is a premium mid-tower case, developed with a focus on high airflow and stylish design. It comes with two 180 mm and one 140 mm pre-installed fans, which provide effective cooling at lower noise levels. The case supports up to E-ATX motherboards, 360 mm radiators and graphics cards up to 410 mm in length. Semi-open chassis with removable top bracket makes mounting hardware and cooling solutions easier. Magnetic panels, vibration-damped brackets and flexible GPU holder contribute to a user-friendly and quiet experience. In addition, the SimpliCable system provides 33 mm of space behind the motherboard for tidy cable management. Overall, it is a case designed for both performance and practical use.

The front of the HAVN BF 360 Flow is characterized by an aerodynamic and minimalist expression, where functionality and cooling are at the center. The five-layer slate-like texture gives the cabinet an exclusive and modern look, while the open structure ensures optimal air intake for the large 180 mm fans behind the front panel. The design is semi-open with clear contours that effectively direct air towards the most important components. Magnetic panels make access easy and hassle-free, while the rubberized grips on the sides provide a solid and user-friendly touch. The combination of stylish exterior and technical precision supports HAVN's philosophy of combining performance with timeless design.

The front of the HAVN BF 360 Flow is designed to be both robust and easy to remove. The panel is attached with magnetic brackets, so it can be removed without the use of tools. Simply pull the front gently using the integrated handles, after which it easily releases, giving full access to the pre-mounted 180 mm fans and the dust filter behind. This solution makes cleaning and maintenance simple, while ensuring a solid fit when the front is put back in place.

On the HAVN BF 360 Flow, the I/O panel is located on top of the case, easily accessible whether it is on the floor or on a table. The panel is equipped with a modern USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port for fast connections, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports for classic devices, and a combined audio jack for headset or microphone. In addition, there is of course a power button with a discreet design that fits in with the minimalist lines of the case. The layout is simple and functional, so you can quickly connect your most important devices without compromising on the pure aesthetic expression.  

Inside, the HAVN BF 360 Flow offers a spacious and flexible structure that makes it possible to build both compact and advanced systems. The chassis supports motherboards up to E-ATX format (with a maximum width of 277 mm), which provides space for high-end setups with many expansion cards and advanced features. There is of course also full compatibility with ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards, so the user can choose exactly the platform that suits them best. The generous internal space is complemented by the possibility of graphics cards of up to 410 mm and CPU coolers with a height of up to 195 mm, ensuring support for even the most demanding components.

The HAVN BF 360 Flow offers many cooling options and is built to handle even the most demanding setups. The case can accommodate up to seven fans in total, including four large 180 mm units for maximum airflow. As standard, it comes with two 180 mm fans in the front and one 140 mm in the rear, but the user can customize the setup as needed. There is also full support for liquid cooling with radiators up to 360 mm in both the front and top, which opens up for powerful AIO solutions or custom loops. The combination of flexible mounting options and good internal space makes it possible to prioritize either quiet operation or extreme cooling capacity.

HAVN BF 360 Flow is equipped with a total of seven horizontal PCIe expansion slots, which allows for the installation of multiple graphics cards, sound cards or other full-size expansion cards. The slots are located at the rear of the chassis and provide good flexibility for high-end builds, where additional additions are often needed. The design supports long graphics cards of up to 410 mm, and together with the included adjustable GPU holder, a stable installation is ensured without unnecessary strain on the motherboard's PCIe ports. This makes the BF 360 Flow both practical and future-proof for powerful systems with many expansions.

The back of the HAVN BF 360 Flow is designed with a focus on tidy cable management and easy access during assembly. Here you will find HAVN's own SimpliCable Routing System, which provides a full 33 mm of space behind the motherboard tray - plenty of space for even thick ATX 24-pin cables and multiple RGB or PWM cables. Cable channels and strategically placed Velcro straps make it possible to keep the cables organized, improving both airflow and aesthetics. The power supply is placed at the bottom, and there are flexible grommets that facilitate cable routing to all components. This solution ensures that the back appears neat and functional, while making installation faster and more hassle-free.

Hardware installation

HAVN BF 360 Flow comes with a complete set of accessories that make it easy to get started with the installation. In the box you will find the necessary screws for the motherboard, SSD and power supply, all separated in small bags to create an overview during the construction. Also included are spacers for the motherboard, so that it can be mounted correctly and stably. To make cable management easier, Velcro straps and a few cable ties are included, which help keep the back tidy.

In addition to that, we have also received some extra fans to be able to mount in the case, ranging from 120mm to 180mm.

Installing the power supply in the HAVN BF 360 Flow is easy and user-friendly. The power supply is placed at the bottom of the case behind a separate PSU chamber, which provides a tidy look and better airflow. The case supports ATX units up to 200 mm in length, which covers the vast majority of models on the market. Installation is done from the rear, where the PSU is pushed in through the opening and secured with the included screws. There are rubber-damped surfaces under the PSU, which reduce vibrations and noise during operation. At the same time, there is a removable dust filter under the case, which makes cleaning quick and easy, so that the power supply always gets fresh and clean air.

Installing a motherboard in the HAVN BF 360 Flow is made as simple as possible thanks to the spacious interior and well-thought-out layout of the case. The case supports E-ATX motherboards up to 277 mm wide as well as ATX, Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX, which provides great flexibility. Spacers are pre-installed in the case, so that the motherboard can be positioned correctly right away. Once the motherboard is in place, it is secured with the included screws through the clearly marked mounting holes. There is generous space around the CPU socket, making it easy to install large coolers or AIO backplates without removing the motherboard again. At the same time, there are strategically placed cable glands with rubber edges, making it easy to route cables directly to the motherboard connections and achieve a tidy setup.

Price

I have been informed of an MSRP of around $189.

Conclusion

When it comes to assembly, the case makes a strong impression. The included screws, spacers and cable ties provide a structured and easy build process, where you can quickly find the necessary accessories. The power supply is easy to get into place in the PSU chamber with rubber-damped surfaces that reduce vibrations and keep the noise level down. At the same time, the removable dust filter under the bottom provides a practical solution for maintenance, so that the power supply can always draw fresh air. Motherboard installation is just as straightforward, and with the pre-mounted spacers and plenty of space around the CPU socket, it is easy to add even large coolers or AIO backplates. The strategically placed cable glands with rubber edges also contribute to a tidy setup and improved airflow.

The price of around 1400 kroner places the BF 360 Flow at the upper end of the mid-range. This means that it is not the most budget-friendly choice, but instead targets users who are willing to pay extra for solid build quality, flexibility and cooling capacity. For some, the price will be a barrier, but for those who prioritize performance and ease of construction, it appears to be a reasonable investment.

The benefits are obvious. The case has plenty of space and supports everything from Mini-ITX to large E-ATX motherboards. The quality is high, the materials feel solid, and the airflow is optimized with the included 180 mm fans, which provide plenty of cooling without being unnecessarily noisy. The option of water cooling with radiators up to 360 mm provides flexibility for more advanced setups, and USB-C on the front is a welcome modern addition. The SimpliCable system ensures that even the thickest cables can be laid neatly and efficiently, giving a clean look both front and rear.

However, there are also disadvantages. The price is, as mentioned, high, and this drags down the overall impression compared to competing cabinets. Another detail is the use of screws to attach the side and top panels, where several competitors in the same price range offer tool-less solutions that make access faster and more user-friendly. This means that the cabinet does not quite feel like a complete high-end product in some respects, although the quality is overall impressive.

Overall, the HAVN BF 360 Flow is a strong case that delivers on the most important points: easy assembly, flexible hardware support, efficient cooling and an overall high build quality. The small compromises in terms of price and some design choices mean that it is not perfect, but it is close. For the serious user who wants a case that can last for many years and supports both air and water cooled systems, it is a very good choice.

My final assessment is that the HAVN BF 360 Flow deserves a solid score of 8 out of 10. It is a cabinet that lives up to expectations, but has a few areas where there is still room for improvement.
