Hi guys,

 

Still picking the exact parts I will be doing for my RGB build and I was trying to find a case with high airflow because living in Australia we generally have a hot climate. If you guys could help me find a case that has a nice side panel but has really good airflow as well that would be much appreciated. 

 

Budget for case 

$150

 

Thanks

any respectable case these days around that price bracket should have decent enough airflow.

eh. not really true. I know it's more money but that makes it worse, but something like the Evolv ATX or the Inwin 805 Infinity has some pretty poor airflow.

 

That said, most cases will be fine such as the S340 or whatever, but if you're going mainly for airflow, the Silverstone RL06 topped Gamer's Nexus' case temperature chart (though not being the quietest, or prettiest case in the world). I also believe the HAF series from Cooler Master (about to be refreshed, with some pretty nice looking options btw) are optimised for this, given that "High Airflow" is literally in the name.
