I want to upgrade my rig really soon and started to look for a case. My current is the Cougar Evolution which is a nice case, if you are blind.

I am looking for a minimalistic case with a good build quality. My research found the Fractal R5, the Fractal R2 XL, the InWin 909 and the be quiet Dark Base 900. My favourite thing would be a Fractal R5 XL with a USB C Front, but you can't have everything. 

Maybe you guys can give me some additional options and information about good looking minimalistic cases.

 

Cheers

What about the NZXT S340 (Elite)?

@EWIL The NZXT Elite S340 is always a good choice for any build IMO. ?

Can't go wrong with the R5 if you ask me, but Phanteks make some nice designs, same with lian li.

S340 or h440 are very minimalistic.

Corsair 400c and 600 are great as well.
