Does Such A Case Exist?

Sean3

I'm looking to build a new PC this summer. I'm looking for a few convenience factors that my old case did not offer me.

  1. Lighter in weight. Easier to move from one place to another(for cleaning purposes).
  2. Adding to mobility, a handle would be nice. A handle that I wouldn't be afraid of breaking off.
  3. A clear window, to see when it needs a bit of spring cleaning love. (this isn't as required as the other options). 
  4. USB 3 headers.
  5. No clutter design inside. What I mean by this; no hard drive cages. I'm looking to only use M.2 storage, so the less air flow restriction, the better.
  6. The cooler temperature, and less noise, the better.

I'm willing to pay a more premium price if all of these requirements are meant. I'm considering either liquid cooling, or an all in one cooling solution. I'm pretty positive the motherboard I'm going with, will be standard ATX size.

This one(http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/mastercase-maker-5/)? 

 

I was just checking this out, and think it looks really neat.

Indeed, no handles. Otherwise I like the minimal look.

I have the Fractal 4 or 5 currently. I'm trying to get away from the full metal body(unless there are handles).

Looks fine, but I feel like when I want to clean it, or make any adjustments, it would be more complicated than other options.

Now that, that is certainly different. And dare I say, I really like this. My only complaint, would be the cost at being $250, I think I might venture into that modular case by Cooler Master, since aesthetically it looks more modern and cooler(in my opinion).
