Best MID Case?

Hey guys! New here. Looking to build my first PC and trying to find the best Mid-size case I can find that has a blue and black color scheme. It needs to be a mid size because I'm going off to college next year. Price isn't really an issue as my PC will be my parents gift to me. Cooling+looks are what's most important to me. However, $150 or less suggestions (unless it's like the best case in the world) would be appreciated as I don't really want to spend all of their money. I'm looking at the NZXT H440 right now as my top pick. http://pcpartpicker.com/user/nickpocquette/saved/w4P8TW <My build as of now

Corsair 450D if you at all like the look. Unlike the other Obsidian cases, it actually has pretty decent airflow.

The 440 is a great choice, but I'd also recommend the Fractal Design Define R4.

I agree with the Enthoo Pro and the 450D, then you can just add a fan that is blue LED, like the Corsair AF140

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3800X GPU: ASUS Strix Radeon R7 5700 XT OC Edition Motherboard: ASUS Crosshair VIII Hero RAM: G.Skill Trident Z DDR4-3200 CL14 SSD: 2x Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB PSU: Corsair AX860 Cooling: NZXT Kraken X72 Case: Corsair Crystal Series 570X Mirror Black Display: BenQ XL2420Z  Keyboard: Corsair K95 RGB Cherry MX Blue Mouse: Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum Audio: Logitech G633 Artemis Spectrum

My only thought would be to consider a case that allows a fan intake/exhaust on the side, only if you were considering getting another GPU later. That's the only thing I don't like about the NZXT H440

I love my Arc Midi R2. If you're really wanting black and blue in the case, the H440 gets my vote.

Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 | ASUS Z97-A | Intel Core i5 4690K | G.Skill Ripjaw 4 GB (desperately needs upgrade) | MSI Radeon R9 290 | EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 | Samsung 840 EVO 250 GB SSD | Seagate Constellation 1 TB HDD (also needs upgrade) | NZXT Kraken X61 for CPU | NZXT Kraken X61 + G10 for GPU | Corsair M45 | CM Storm Quickfire TK | ASUS Xonar DSX | Denon AD-H2000

Corsair Graphite 600T, Corsair Carbide 500R,Corsair C70 Black,Corsair Carbide Air 540,Aerocool DS 200 . All very good cases and most of them with open mesh infront for nice effects . Just add a blue fan led infront and you are set
