hey guys so im looking into new cases as i feel that mine is too loud i've done everything i can to silence it from under volting fans and moving to water cooling i have a haf xb and do like it but since im building a new pc for a lan i feel it will better suited for that and i want to move my main pc into another case i was looking at the define r4 but was thinking that the r5 might be coming out soon and also i was looking at the 540 air i do plan on upgrading when 800 series comes out and do plan to water cool everything any thoughts on what my next case should be also the case i had before the haf xb was an azza 2000 hurrican so feel free to mention bigger cases

The R5 won't come out any time soon they didn't have any thing about it at computex. If you want a case with water cooling in mind get the corsair 540 or the fractal arc midi R2

Another option would be the newly released Cooler Master 690 III (I and many other people on this forum have the 690 II advanced and it is a great case)

Cooler Master 690 II Advanced - I5 2500K @ 4.5Ghz - Geil Enhance Plus 1750Mhz 8Gb - ASUS ENGTX 570 DCUII - MSI Z68aGD65 - Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B - Samsung 830 128gb and Crucial m4 128gb - much other stuff not worth mentioning

The 540 Air seems like a good case for you.

How are your plans going for the LAN pc?
