Posted October 28, 2016 Hi, I'm looking to buy a new case and AIO cooler at the same time if I go with a corsair case I will buy a corsair AIO and if I get an NZXT case I will get the Kraken X61 AIO which case would you go for I want to keep parts as cool as possible whilst not been super loud but I don't mind too much noise as long as it's not louder than my current 780T with 7 fans at 7v. I am going white and black theme with RGB lighting so it will be the white version of the cases. The corsair one is appealing to me from the point the USB ports are on the front my pc sits on my desk so this is convenient (I don't know why companies keep putting them on the top) but I like the NZXT cases from a style point but worry about the solid front panels blocking air flow too much.

Posted October 28, 2016 I'm a bit biased towards cube style cases and I'd personally go with the Corsair Air 540 White if I wasn't already a Caselabs junky. By the way, you should post the pictures of all three in the thread so everyone doesn't have to look them up. May get more responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ok yeah the Caselabs cases are nice but soo expensive lol but I guess they are more of a case for many years I have a bad habbit of changing case more often than any part of my PC whoops lol but this time I would like it to last quite a while I worry about the NZXT cases being restrictive of airflow being silent optimised cases.

I've been noticing with newer cases they keep putting the USB ports on the top which is ok if you have your pc on the floor but I have mine on my desk so I can see all the parts lol and it's quite annoying if for example you use a cabled controller which I prefer to use having the cable looping over from the top of the case.
