Need help picking my pc case

BurnsFPS

Hey everyone,

 

I'm just about ready to order everything for my first build,


I had really wanted something white with tempered glass; on atleast 1 side both sides would be nice though, and usb c front port

 

 

So far I found the Phanteks Evolv x(not white though),------- Cooler Master MasterCase H500P ( really like this one )  ------ Fractal Design Define 7 White Brushed,

 

Those are my main choice's their is also the Fractal Design Meshify C  and Meshify S2; I think the S2 is way too big though for my build,

 

 

This will be going with a 570 tomahawk, evga 2080 super xc, and most likely the Noctua or Bequit CPU,

 

Let me know which you think or if you have a better suggestion thatd be great!

 

Thanks for help

If you want to save a buck, and have an old PC that hasn’t been touched in years, check if the case suits your needs, and if it does, try using it!

For what it's worth my vote goes for the MasterCase H500P. For me it simply looks better than the other options.

Do you actually have anything to plug in that usb c? Because if you want to have it just for the sake of having it I am not sure whether this will make sense. Also does the motherboard that you intend on getting have usb c internal header?

Yea I know what ya mean,

 

I thought it be good for future proofing and pluging in like headsets/charging stuff etc..

 

But yea maybe I dont need it might go with Fractal Design Meshify C or Phanteks Evolv X instead,

 

Yea I'm gonna get the 570 tomahawk so it has it

The S2 is the same size as the Define 7, and roughly the same size as the Mastercase H500P Mesh. 

 

If you never plan on watercooling, the Meshify C would be the most compact and could easily hold an NH-D15 or Dark Rock Pro 4 (assuming those are the coolers you're looking at) however it does NOT have USB-C front I/O. 

 

A good option would be the Phanteks P600S in white. Same interior as the Evolv X but has different exterior paneling, with an removable front plate for better airflow if needed.

The interior is definitely one of the best of the modern Case market IMO. 

 

You should be able to purchase the glass panel for the back of the P600S separately if you so desire.
