Hi guys so I currently have a Fractal Meshify C which I love but it’s too small for me to put a bigger GPU in so I need to find something larger. 

 

Ideally the Meshify S2 would be the perfect fit but I want something new and that’s more or less the same as what I had.

 

I love Li Lian O11 Dynamic but i’m not really and advanced user to does custom water cooling, I have a corsair H115i for my cooler and a dual fan GPU. From what iv been told the O11 Dynamic has poor thermals if I was to transfer my set up over. So would this be the case? and what else could you recommend for me in white?

One thing that might help to find cases you don’t often see in white is one of the check boxes in filters on PcPartPicker so you could try filtering for only white cases and see what pops up.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

An interesting case Iv found is the corsair crystal 680x which is similar to the li lian case but supports corsairs ICUE which is the main RGB for my system. One issue I have is the case costs £220 and will require me to get a corsair commander pro to support all the fans which is another £60 taking me to £280 which I don’t really think it’s worth me spending so much money on. 

 

Would the Li Lian O11 Dynamic really be that bad for my system with the h115i pro 280m rad and the dual blower fan gpu? Honestly I really like the looks of the case but if it’s going to harm my performance it’s not worth it and i’ll probably just get the Meshify S2 as it’s the safe option?
