So i found the Cooler Master H500P and i like it in terms of looks and really like the idea of 2x200mm front intake fans. They don`t need to be RGB thats just bonus. So my only problem is the build quality and materials used that cheap plastic on top and front of the case for 150 Euro kills it for me. So is there any similar case with glas window, 2x200mm fans and most important good quality materials. Vertical GPU mount would be nice but is not a must have and i would prefer some removable dust filters for the intake area just like in my current case Phanteks Enthoo Pro.

OK the: [NZXT Phantom 530 -- 200mm front fan, 140mm rear fan] is good, and my friend used to own one before spending £200 on another. It's a great case, made from steel and plastic, however I have been told this is not cheap, stupid plastic. Not entirely sure whether a 30cm+ gpu will fit, but I would 95% recommend this. Had I the increased budget, this was the PC case I was going for initially.

Thanks for the recommendation but i have a case pretty similar like this from the setup atm 200mm intake 140mm exhaust lot of drive cages and that´s what i don`t want. I have a DVD drive on my current pc which i took from the pc i had before but in 2+ years i used it 1 or 2 times. Thats what i like about the H500P nothing there but 2 x 200mm intake fans and then this cheap plastic window which limits airflow and yea is cheap plastic.  I thinking about buying the H500P and just mod it a bit by removing the plastic front window and replace it with a big dust filter for better air flow.

Fair enough. Hope you find a case that deserves you soon :D

It's definitely a good idea, and actually makes the case somewhat viable in the case market.

Take a look at http://www.thermaltake.com/Chassis/Full_Tower_/Core/C_00003076/Core_V71_Tempered_Glass_Edition/design.htm

On the vertical gpu mount there is kits to make any case have it but you give up all your pci slots so if you want to use them it won't work.This is the kit https://store.coolermaster.com/vertical-display-graphics-card-holder

You need that and the riser cable and some cases you might have to cut out the pci slot metal but its not hard.
