Case decision for new build

Hey guys,

I'm planning a new custom water cooling build for my streaming/gaming pc and I think I've come up with the whole build, but I can't find a case that I like.

Build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DCWkBP

The build is going to be a black and pink color scheme done primarily by RGB lighting. The case fans are subject to change with the case obviously.

Things I want from the case: Mid or Full Tower, Front Panel USB Type C preferred, Side Panel Window (Tempered Glass Prefered).

I was considering the Lian Li PC-O11, however it doesn't seem like it has any effective ways to hide the LED strips from sight. I was also looking at the be quiet! Dark Base and maybe painting the orange stripe pink. Any ideas outside of case options are appreciated as well thank you.

You could just get a fully Black NZXT S340 Elite, the tempered glass has a black out tint all around the edge so you dont see the LED strips (see my blue build in my signature for an example) Or really any blacked out case like the Phanteks P400, Phanteks Pro M, Thermaltake View 31 (no PSU basement, not sure if that matters to you) The be quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 (If youre willing to spend up to $250, this is definitely the case to buy at this price)
