Hello Comunity,

I'm looking forward to swap my case after upgrading my system.

Now i'm stuck because i can't find a side with decent search-options for specs to search for cases.

What im looking for:

ATX-Formfactor (with useable cutouts for nice looking cable managment)

Tempered Glas sidepanel

Case to fit my Asus Strix Rx-480 (11.73inches/300mm long)

Powersuply shroud

Possibility to fit All in one liquid cooler for my Ryzen CPU

 

No Harddrive slots needed.

 

Costs: around 100€

 

BTW: they should be avaiable in EU.

 

Was looking for the "NZXT Source S340 Elite" is this case the way to go?

Would like to hear some advice.

The S340 is a very nice case and highly recommended.  I myself do not have one of those.  But I do have 3 Phanteks P400 cases.  It will fit your GPU with no issue.  It can handle up to a 360mm Rad in the front but be warned....the airflow is a little restrictive in the front.  I myself am able to keep thermals quite low in the P400 as is my wife with an AMD FX 8350 build.  We aren't running Liquid cooling however.  Here are two of our builds.  The first pic is the P400 Tempered Glass version and inside is an MSI RX 480 Reference card.  The second pic is my P400S Acrylic window version with an XFX RX 480 RS gpu.  As you can see....there is ample amount of room inside this case.  These are older pics as I have to take new ones to put up.  My case now has a statue of Ryder from Mass Effect Andromeda standing inside of it.  Why?  Because I had a void to fill and well...I like it.
