There is a lot of cases, What is your budget?

U can even cut H510 at top and mount AIO there if you want 😄

Define 7 is garbage but you advocate ghetto rigging a case?

 

No, it's a great case, easy to work in, well build, etc.

It is an overpriced case with zero airflow. Just a high quality steel. That doesn't make it good case, That makes it overpriced garbage and modding a case is perfectly fine thing to do.

It has fine airflow.  Great even when considering the sound level dampening, aesthetic and build quality.

 

If something isn't top airflow it's garbage?  Love the shortsighted mentality.

It has a bad airflow. "Silent" is just a marketing shit, Get good airflow case and fans have to spin significantly slower getting you quiet and cooler PC. Also OP is asking for something tht isn't stupidly expensive and has good ariflow, So your advice makes no sense whatsoever.

This is solid front panel Lancool 205, It is pretty bad for airflow.

Here are sightly more expensive, But good options:

@baal_15You might think about the Corsair 4000 / 5000 / 7000 series, the X variants have dust filters and tempered glass fronts but are still decent for airflow. The D Airflow variants have a more open front without filters. All can fit 360 mm rads.

I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below ***

 

MODERATE TO SEVERE AUTISTIC, COMPLICATED WITH COVID FOG

 

Due to the above, I've likely revised posts <30 min old, and do not think as you do.

THINK BEFORE YOU REPLY!

think this will be ok for a 340mm gpu and a 60mm thick aio ? 340mm gpu with a front fitted aio at 60mm thick in theory both should fit hmm?

 

 

 

Should fit as long as the card dimensions include the shroud.

 

USB-C front panel port is an optional extra on Pop cases.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.
