Could you guys give me some ideas for a recent case that would have good cooling in an open loop setup? The Enthoo Evolv isn't cutting it any more plus I'm getting the itch to mess with the computer. I have a 360 rad and EKWB kit. 

 

Also, would it also be able to use a vertical gpu mount? 

 

Thanks

Thermaltake View 71 TG has a vertical mount and is designed for watercooling. Its a big full tower with 4 sided tempered glass, so not sure if your into that.

I would rather agree on what we share, than fight on what we don't. - Myself

Thermaltake View/Core/Supressor 31 TG should fit your needs

Thank you all. That's the case I was leaning towards but also don't want to limit it to TG or vertical gpu. 

 

Gonna pull up those cases now.

These two are good. There's also a bunch of cases from CaseLabs.

I'm having trouble looking through all their cases. I like the View 71 because of the mesh front but dont want any of the RGB bull. Is the regular view 71 still the same case or is there a different one without the RGB crap

Are you talking about the View 71?

Or the Core 71?

You're right I meant the core. Except the drive bays aren't what I'm looking for. I don't want a hard drive cage along the front.

Hey, Vigilante505, 360 rad, and EKWB kit is pretty awesome and I totally understand that it's complicated to find a good gaming PC case under a tight budget. I would suggest you look at Thermaltake Tower 900, but in case you want to extend your options, I would suggest you have a glance at these options: https://www.reviewsdir.com/best-gaming-pc-cases/ I hope it'll be helpful.
