What case should I get?

xdeathshot20

So I just got a corsair 570x and unfornatuley it dosent fit my x61 on top I'm going to see how it looks on the front but what are some other suggestions?  I want a case with ample air flow and fits a 280mm rad.  4 usb ports would be nice but not necessary.  The other thing is that it would be preferable if I can get it from microcenter since there is one near me and I have some gift cards to them.  Any suggestions?

Meshify C, that's my favourite :D

What do you think of the s340 elite?

Very nice, if you like it, go for it. But I think that Meshify has better airflow, It has more open front panel and more space for fans on the top

great quality. Just had it for my brothers build. The glass panel looks nice and the included headset/ VR headset holder works great! although it's a mid tower case so it will look a little small but hey it's a lot more compact than a cosmos case.

although I use fractal cases for watercooling and they tend to be a lot wider a bigger than the nzxt cases. Their newest case (fractal design define r6) is the best case of 2017 imo and looks amazing!

Fractal Design Define R6 if you can afford it. Meshify 6 if you can't.

The s340 elite sadly does not have "Ample" airflow. Those descriptions are best suited for the Meshify C and Enthoo Pro M TG

 

The X61 shouldnt look terrible in the front of the 570x though.

Ah, I see what you're saying

 

IF you're definite on selling the case, the Enthoo Pro M TG is about the same size as the 460x, the 570x's little brother. The Meshify C is even smaller, so depending on the length of the GPU you have, it wouldnt fit with a front mounted RAD. There's also the Define R6 to consider, it's in a similar price bracket to the 570x and offers a lot of features for watercooling.
