need a new case

[ppolicherla91]

so i am gonna upgrade to the strix 980ti, made this decision after much....much consideration, starting more serious media work as well as gaming in 1440p with the hopes in the future to maybe jump to 4k. Anyway right now i am rocking the h440 but the length restriction on the case is kinda a deal breaker. What case out there can give me the sleek sexiness that i love my h440 for with the space i need to comfortable place my new card in. Also a plus but not a dead set requirement is a case that would allow for push pull on a top radiator for the AIO. any suggestions will be welcome and taken in.

BeQuiet! Silent Base 800??

Length restriction? I have an h-440 and a 290 with room to spare, is the 980ti just gigantic?

I would recommend Corsair 450D Case

the clearance in the h440 is 11" but the strix 980ti is like 16"

[ppolicherla91]

never mind i have now realized my utter ridiculousness in the 16" statement

Hey OP,

For a similar case to the H440, look at the Fractal Design Define R5 or S. They look pretty basic and are optimised for silence.

If you feel like straying a bit, take a look at the Cooler Master MasterCase Pro 5 or the Phanteks Enthoo Pro M. Both are pretty big and fit long cards.

oh man yeah but the problem is that on the define series it bothers me that there is no top filter for the fans just an open grid. Also would the master case or even the enthoo be able to do push pull??

I don't think the MasterCase Pro 5 can do a push pull, there isn't enough room. If you want to do that, I would go for a full tower case.

If you have a decent static pressure optimised fan, then a push/pull/push pull config shouldn't matter anyway.

I can't speak for the Enthoo Pro M as I've never owned one.
