Fractal Design Define R5 or Define S sounds perfect for this.

Project White Lightning (My ITX Gaming PC): Core i5-4690K | CRYORIG H5 Ultimate | ASUS Maximus VII Impact | HyperX Savage 2x8GB DDR3 | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB | WD Black 1TB | Sapphire RX 480 8GB NITRO+ OC | Phanteks Enthoo EVOLV ITX | Corsair AX760 | LG 29UM67 | CM Storm Quickfire Ultimate | Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum | HyperX Cloud II | Logitech Z333

Benchmark Results: 3DMark Firestrike: 10,528 | SteamVR VR Ready (avg. quality 7.1) | VRMark 7,004 (VR Ready)

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

I would get the CoolerMaster Master case pro 5. It is extremely customizable you can remove fan brackets, HDD cages anything 

 

Another option would be the Phanteks entoo luxe

What's the difference between the two cases?

The Define s is more oriented towards water cooling since it has many mounts for that. the define R5 is more oriented towards silence without compromises.

What do you guys think of the Carbide Air 540? Is it pretty portable compared to the other Mid tower cases?

Portable? Probably not. That thing is big even by ATX standards. Good case, though.
