Looking for a new case, with all the modern bells and whistles

Hi folks, I am looking for a new tower case that has the modern bells and whistles to replace my old Corsair 300R case.

 

Parts I have for consideration:

  • I have 2 HDDs and 3 SSDs,
  • 1 typical sized ATX PSU (corsair 600CX M)
  • ATX motherboard
  • 1 Optical disk drive
  • I have a small/mid-sized GPU (223 mm in length)

 

Must haves:

  • Under $150
  • At least 1 optical disk drive bay
  • Front Panel on the front side or on the left side (not on the top)
  • Window on side
  • Something that either around the same size as, or at the very least isn't too much bigger than my current case's dimensions (Corsair 300R)  19.1” x 8.3” x 17.7”. Could be smaller as well

 

Preferences:

  • Cable routing features
  • Magnetic dust filters
  • Power Supply Shroud
  • A decent amount of holes for fans/closed-loop radiators

 

Other Notes:

  • I have an Optical to HDD bracket, so if a case has 2 Optical bays and 4 HDD bays, I could still deal with that.
  • I don't care for LED lights, not a factor.
