ATX case recommendation

ItzzJohn

Hello everyone,

 

I'm going to buy a new case for my PC but I can't find any good cases with 230mm of width and at least 470mm of length.

 

Can someone recommend me a good case (also with good airflow) without passing my 100€ budget?

 

Thank you.

Why such a big case ?

It's just a tad above mid tower size, they tend to max out at 230mm width and 450mm length, then full tower are either very old/bad or over $100

Because I bought the RTX 4070 Ti Super from ROG that it's:
13.22 x 5.9 x 2.48 inch
336 x 150 x 63 mm

 

And my CPU cooler is the Noctua NH-D15S and it's big because I have a tower of 230mm of width and the cooler is almost touching the glass.

But if you have any recommendations of mid towers size for that GPU and cooler can you please tell me?

Ok, you don't need that big of a case, a Lancool 216 or Phantels G360 will be able to hold your stuff easily

They're a tad over $100, have stellar reviews, and comes with fans included

Do you think that the Cooler Master NR600 is also a good option?

as long as the cooler is NOT touching the glass it's fine.

 

Most cases only have a few mm of clearance on tall Air Coolers, and as long as you have 1-2mm?  you're totally fine.

 

And a 336mm GPU?  That's not abnormally long.  you don't need 450mm for that!
