I'm upgrading my PC and want a new case soon becuase the CiT Vantage is the death of me. Can you folks link or name Cube or Flat style cases Just because I like them they'd to support ATX Motherboards, either a H80 or Seidon V120 and probably 2 GTX 760's. I know about the normal ones the Corsair Air 540, all the Cubitek ones. Thanks! :)

What are you looking for exactly ? Do you just want a case that sits flat on desk like a media center case. Or do you want a dual zone case like the air 540 or hafxb which has lots of space behind motherboard tray for drives and power supply ?

Yes, I want a Case that seperates the PSU & Cables to the Motherboard. The HAF XB looks like the perfect choice.

The haf xb is awesome and i do own one. Just keep in mind that with this case I would only recommend using a 120mm radiator. You could put a 240mm in the front but then you loose the cool air coming in to feed your graphics cards. The case is a dream to work with if you like to swap out and tinker with stuff alot. Also super neat cable management.

It's a very flexible case for AIO water cooling and very tall air coolers also on a less serious note short circuit by daft punk was playing when I saw your profile gif and I completely lost my shit.

Yeah I've seen people with custom watercooling in this case and I love it! I'm DEFINATLEY getting this! And I feel (I know it don't make a difference) that motherboards were intended to lay flat not at a 90 degree angle.

Yea, i also use that case for lan parties and i feel much safer with my video cards being transported on the flat motherboard vice hanging from an upright motherboard.
