Looking for Inverted ATX Case

 Hey, guys, I'm looking to getting rid of my Phanteks Evolv, it is the original design before they came out with the ATX so similar to the mATX version and it just has a hard time keeping everything as cool as I would like. While gaming I have to take off the top and front to get decent temps. So I would like to my system over to a new case and would like to get an inverted one as I have the case on the left side of the desk. Right now I'm running a 4790k @ 4.6ghz, Gigabyte Aorus Waterforce 1080ti. I would also like to be able to go to a larger AIO for the CPU as well. So any suggestions that are out there, the only ones I know of are the old Silverstone Raven's and the 600c's from Corsair. Thanks for the suggestions.

Apevia and Riotoro both make inverted case, right off the top of my head. There are also plenty of OEMs that have done inverted ATX builds--HP comes to mind immediately--if you're into case modding.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

be quiet dark base pro 900, most modular and best case ever. can be inverted. if u r looking even more high end, go for caselabs.

Thanks guys, I'll go take a look at the Be Quiet case today and see if it will fit my needs. I checked out the Riotoro last night and it looks like it would be too small to run both radiators sadly, I did like the look of it. And the Apevia just isn't to my taste but thanks for the suggestions!

The Riotoro CR1080 only has room for one RAD

If you're using more than one RAD and looking for an inverted case, the Dark Base Pro 900 is your case. It was Case of the Year 2016 by HardwareCanucks, and for good reason.
