Anybody have any ideas of a ATX case with glass side panel and front if possible. I have some pretty hot components so i want good airflow but dust filters to. It dosnt have to have case fans since i have 6 ml120 pro's.

 

Glass in the front = super bad airflow. There are literally thousands of cases out there. Can you be more specific with what you want?

Take a look at the PHANTEKS ECLIPSE P300A MESH EDITION.
It has good airflow because of the mesh front, it has dust filters and you can look through the front a little bit because it's mesh.

CPU cooler

be quiet! Shadow Rock Slim

Corsair 4000x looks good with the glass but has terrible front airflow.

The Corsair 4000d Airflow is a great option with an open, but still good looking front panel. Plenty of gaps to let your ML RGB fans shine.

Also great options:

be Quiet Pure Base 500DX

Cooler Master H500, TD500

Phanteks P300A, P400A, P500A

Fractal Design Meshify C

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

You can have one, or the other. You really cant find both. 

 

The Corsair 465x straddles the middle ground between "okay airflow" and "still has a glass front", but if your components are especially hot, I'd recommend forgoing the glass for a mesh front panel.
