So, I'm gonna be switching my case soon, I currently have a mid tower, I just have no room for cable management, I am wondering if I should go with a 450d or 750d. I'm going to be using an ATX mobo, a gtx 970, and putting in a few hard drives here and there. I'm not planning to water cool by the way. Listing some pros and cons will help.

450d = Perfect for non water cooling

750d = fucking huge and good for water cooling

The main difference is the size. If you're not planning on watercooling, go for the 450D. Both have plenty of room for cable management. 

 

EDIT: The 750D can make non-SLI or non-watercooled builds look really small.

If you plan on watercooling, just because of easy of building in I would say the 750D. Now that you can buy the Airflow Edition, there really is no difference at least as far as I can tell between the two besides size.

The 750D has worse airflow and you should really only get it if you plan to water cool or if you need the extra space for some other mods.
