P350X. It doesn't have rubber cover for cable cutouts, but they're position in way that you cannot see them anyway.

Well clearly I'm blind because it's in your sig :D 

 

You got a pretty powerful system there, so I'm gonna recommend a $70 case with a good mesh front to help keep that 2080 of yours cool

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/CbqhP6/cooler-master-masterbox-nr600-wo-odd-atx-mid-tower-case-mcb-nr600-kgnn-s00

 

Now since your GPU is an air cooled card I would not recommend you use a native PCi-E vertcal mount found imn some cases, because they put the GPU far too close to the side oanel which chokes the card of air. I would instead, suggest looking into a third party bracket which uses your 7 PCI-E slots to make a vertical slot for your GPU. Cablemod, Coolerrmaster and many other brands have their own. 

 

Quote

CableMod is able to deliver an overall lower temperature with their bracket than the stock H500M, with the configuration we tested, and we would expect this to extrapolate reasonably to most other cases on the market. The extra space between the glass and the card aids significantly in cooling performance.

I see the front doesn't look like it has good airflow for Fans. Will this affect the airflow without that front mesh? 

That mesh is the best for airflow. If your talking about the front, It lets all the air in and helps filter dust
