Looking for white case recomendations

[LordRegrad]

Hello everyone, this is my first post in the community.

 

I build my new PC a month ago with these specs:

• NZXT H510 white case
• Ryzen 7 5800X + Noctua D15S chromax black (cooler fits tight, I'm planing to put an additional A12x25 when there's a chromax black version)
• Crucial Ballistix White 4x8GB @ 3600MHz CL16
• ASUS Prime X570 Pro (with lights off)
• Gigabyte SSD M.2 PCIE 4.0 + 2 SSD Crucial BX500 2TB
• Gigabyte RTX 3080 Eagle (it was the only one I could buy)
• All Noctua case fans: 2xA14 front, 1xS12A rear and 1xA12x15 top (I can´t put 25mm fans because they collide with the 2x8pin motherboard CPU connectors)
• Seasonic Focus+ 850W + Cablemod white sleeved cables

The main problem is that the case is an oven. At stock temps the CPU and the GPU run at 50°C. When I play some games, the rear-top part of the case feels really hot.

(I have the last stable bios for my motherboard and the last drivers for the GPU)

 

So I was looking for a minimalist white case and I found some options:

• Fractal Design Define 7 Compact Light Tempered Glass (I was also looking at Define 7 but I don't think I put many HDDs)
• Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic White
• Lian Li Lancool 205 White

My main goal is to make my PC cool and quiet.

 

I would like you to help me chosing a white case with a good airflow, if you have any other recommendation I will appreciate it.

 

Thank you!

 

 

PD: In the image I removed the glass just to take the photo without reflections.

Thank you very much!

 

I see that the best cases for my PC are the "mesh" type ones.

 

I will look for the recommended models!

The Corsair 275R airflow has a white variant. I have the black one and my temps are great. https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Mid-Tower-ATX-Cases/275R-Airflow-Tempered-Glass-Mid-Tower-Gaming-Case/p/CC-9011182-WW

I just got the Phanteks P400A(Mesh) White this last christmas. My temps were lowered a lot from my previous solid case. It was also great to build in with the pre-installed cable routes and ties.

I have the Black one. And my temps are really good during games.

You have a really clean setup! Please make sure you share when you make the move.

I assume "at stock temps" means at idle.

 

What are the actual temps under load? 50 C kind of warm at idle, but we haven't actually verified there's a problem, "feels hot" is subjective.
