NZXT’s most popular case NZXT S340 has two versions:- The normal S340 and the S340VR Elite but what are the differences between the two? Is it only the VR Elite name or are there some noticeable differences that will benefit you or not?
Well, the first S340 was launched in 2014 which is almost now 4 years back but it hasn’t got its popularity down since then because of the unique design it provided us with. Two years later the S340VR Elite was launched in 2016 which brought some exterior and interior changes. With that, the cost was increased by $20. Today, I am going to solve your dilemma if you are confused about which case you should buy and if paying $20 more is worth it or not.
Similarities

Wrapping up
If you look at the pros of NZXT S340VR Elite, they are clearly justified for $20 more. The addition of a tempered glass side panel, magnetic puck and an additional SSD bay is a good upgrade from the standard version. For those who want a premium look, S340VR Elite is the way to go unless you want to save as much money as possible, then the standard S340 will be fine.
When taken practically, the tempered glass side panel alone is very essential today because whenever you will clean the normal window panel, it will get scratched easily no matter how much care you will take. Eventually, the case will start to look uglier and will ruin the overall appearance. NZXT S340VR Elite is a perfect choice for $90 because it blends with the latest trend and gives a clean and plain look.
