I'm making a machine that is going to house an tax board, 2080 ti, ryzen 5 3700x, along with a 240 radiator aio, and 3 additional fans. What case will give me the best airflow, most space, and a decent price? Bonus points for possible vertical GPU mounting.

You flatter me sir

 

The NZXT H510 is a solid case for a chic build. Airflow may be unimpressive, but your parts will not suffocate, and you get many options for cable managing to nail the clean look.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

What do you define as a decent price? $50? $100?

are you buying from the united states?

 

also if you wanted some case info, you could make your own topic and get multiple opinions.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

there's no tier list and I can't really make recommendations since I don't know what's available to you.

 

The masterbox TD500 seems to breathe easily with that mesh front, and if you're into that kind of style, it would probably serve you well. The masterbox cases are really roomy to build inside of.

Ok so should i buy one? 

Mind you that gpu mount plus the additional riser cable are not included i think and can amount to extra cost (sometimes up to half of the price of the case or so)

 

Additionally if it replaces the horizontal pci brakcets you might not be able to usee pcie wifi and/our audio cards etc (not a problem if mobo has both to satisfaction).
