Other details What is the challenge for me is, my system needs better cooling you could say. Host system is Arch linux and I run my gaming in a VM. I have 2 video cards, the gaming one of a 3090 Founders and for the host 1060 6gb. There are no water blocks for the 1060 so just water cooling it is not an option. The cards are close enough that the 1060 heats up the back of the 3090 and the memory is even harder to keep cool. To make matters more complex I also need 2 platter drives in the case, they are too big to be cost effective to replace with SSDs.
I would like a case I can easily mount the 3090 adding the EK active backplate to it, and expanding the loop to include the processor which is on an AIO. Didn't plan to water cool the video card until I realized how hot it really got.
Only cases so far that could work are the Thermatake cube ones, the 900 and maybe the 20HT. I am looking for ideas on other cases that could meet my need. Currently in a Corsair 5000D airflow, and the front mount does not seem like it would give me room with the active backplate. Any help is appreciated.
