What size?

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 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

a mid tower

 

The fractal design Focus G or the cooler master Masterbox lite 5 would do nicely

thanks a million!

Doesn't the Lite 5 have no airflow?

 

Focus G or Q500L most likely, pretty much anything that has a mesh front.

 

no good cases are going to have RGB most likely at that price point.

 

But really why do you need to upgrade your case? What's the hardware inside? Why not save up a bit more for a premium case if you don't really need it?

Could get a Coolermaster H500 for not too much more and have 2 200mm RGB fans for example.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

MB510 has acrylic front with side intake, MB520 has Tempered glass front with side intakes. The MB511 (only comes with one fan) is 40 euros currently

MB500 also has half front Mesh but is over the budget at 65 euro
