I can't decide on my new case - please help me

[c0rtin3x]

Hi guys,

 

I am building a new rig with the following parts:

 

- Gigabyte RTX 4090 Gaming OC

- Ryzen 7 7700X

- ASUS ROG Strix B650E-E Gaming WiFi

- 32 GB G.Skill Trident Z 6000MHz CL36

- beQuiet! Straight Power 11 1200W 80+ Platinum

- Gigabyte AORUS Waterforce X360

 

I am currently torn between the

 

LianLi Lancool III

 

and the

 

NZXT H7 Flow

 

Tomorrow, the H7 Flow should arrive, the Lancool III is already here. Both cases get pretty good results in reviews and such. The H7 Flow is around 50€ (I am from Germany) cheaper than the Lancool III. The Lancool III on the other hand is bigger and offers more space, additionally it has some QOL features like the spring loaded doors and stuff. What I am afraid of in the Lancool III is the second tempered glass side, my PC is located in the living room and bad cable management would be instantly seen.

 

Both are airflow cases and should achieve adequate cooling, I don't really have a silence focus as long as noise is within the bearable limit.

 

What I am looking for is an "easy" case to build in, meaning fairly simple cable management and enough space to move around the parts. According to my research, both cases should be compatible with the parts above, even the monstrous 4090 Gaming OC should fit in both cases  with the beQuiet! 12VHPWR adapter (since I only have an ATX 2.xx PSU). I'd be grateful if someone could confirm my research results.

 

Maybe some of you have experience with both cases and could throw a few pros and cons at me, that would be awesome!

 

Thank you very much in advance!

Do you think 3 120mm bottom fans on the Lancool make sense or are they overkill? With those 3 it would be 10 fans in total (3x 140mm front, 1x 120mm + Rad top, 1x 140mm rear exhaust and 3x 120mm bottom intake...
