I'm looking for a Mid Tower case and I was considering the Fractal R5 but I don't know how I feel about the door and I don't really care that much about sound. I need something with great airflow/cable managment and can hold a 240mm rad either top or front. Suggestions?

 

EDIT: Something not too flashy preferred.

H440 or Noctis 450, while the H440 doesn't have amazing air flow, it's not nearly as bad as everyone says it is -- my system is pretty much silent and I'm able to push it as far as I want to without running into any temperature issues (although there is about a 10c difference between all the panels on and off).

I'm checking out the noctis atm can you put a rad in the front?

Yes, it will block some of the drive bays though.
