Need Computer Case Ideas Please

Go to solution Solved by FusionBlitzx,

How about the Corsair 450D?

Hi, 

Looking for ideas and suggestions for a new case for a build, requirements are :

# needs to fit at least a ATX motherboard

# room for 240mm rad for Cpu liquid cooling - more of a work station then a gaming rig so GPUs dont have to be liquid cooled

# Would really prefer front mounted USB and power switch for easy access - this is where im having trouble finding nice designs 

thanks for your suggestions

Both great cases but the switches are on the top still, dont like putting my cases under my desk due to dog hair and dust ect so have them on the desk, so it gets annoying when i need to plug things in that i cant just reach across, first world problem i know, if im going to buy a new case might aswell try and get the ideal set up for myself

Budget dosnt matter too much, nothing over $500 would be ideal, otherwise it would be cheaper to make a custom one really.

Cool over quiet, Going to be used for video editing mostly at the other end of my desk so fans will always be running 

Open to style options, always nice to see new ideas and designs

760T if you want something stunning looking... otherwise go for a Fractal Define S / R5 or an Enthoo luxe or similar.. cant go wrong with mid to high end Corsair, NZXT, Fractal, Coolermaster, or Phantecks
