What are the best case recommendations for the Asus z10pe-d16 motherboard? Looking for something that will look professional and be silent, with liquid cooling option space.

The phantek really didn't appeal to me, the corsair 900D was nice but according to pc part pocket won't work

The problem with the Silverstone is the 90° motherboard mounting and cable management is a nightmare

I would say the rotated motherboard is better, because of airflow and you won't get GPU sag. If you were to get an FT02 you'd probably have better cable management as it's a larger case, although it isn't necessarily as bad as it's made out, so long as you have a modular PSU.

Other cases I would recommend are caselabs (Can't help with names, I don't bother much with their stuff) as well as the Silverstone TJ11, Coolermaster cosmos 2 (not sure if it'll fit, but it's feckin huge and looks incredible)

The collermaster cosmos 2 is compatible but dosent really do it for me with the handles and it won't really go with the office look I have in mind, the rest of the cases you mentioned besides the caselabs, won't fit the board. Thanks
