Recommendations for good airflow, elegant, slick case

GamingDoc

Hey guys,

 

people helped me out a lot over at "New Builds and Planning", so I thought why not ask you for some insider case recommendations, maybe there is something out there that I haven't seen yet.

 

I'm looking for an elegant, simplisistic, slick looking case with (very) good airflow and subtle RGB highlights (Asus Aura compatible would be great) - things like Jonsbo UMX4 Plus (unfortunately no 360 radiator support) and Phanteks Evolv X (not sure about airflow here).

 

Specs: E-ATX, 2x GPU, at least 1x 360 radiator, visible PSU (or a cutout in the PSU shroud like the Evolv X has). Not too much glass (like the TT View 71). I'm open for exotic cases, too!

Considered Lian Li 011?

I did, but an E-ATX mainboard would cover the fans that are installed on the right side. I don't think that would look too good. I also doubt that there is enough room for bottom fans with a second GPU (2,7 slot) installed - but I'm not sure. I like the ROG edition of the case, though!

This build log should answer your questions regarding 2.5 wide GPUS/fans and E-ATX motherboards
