Alternative Case?

[Klenex]

Hi guys,

 

I'll be moving away from watercooling for a bit, and I want a case for different needs.

 

Currently my system is pretty standard with an MSI Z370 + 8700K with an AMD 480.

 

I have 2 SSD's and 2 HDD's.

 

My requirements for a case:

 

- More silent than my Air 540 (shouldn't be too hard :P)

- Room for a longer GPU (possible upgrade in the future)

- Possibility of adding more hard drives in the future (at least 2 or 3 more)

 

And lastly, I would like to get something that isn't a typical brand like Corsair, CoolerMaster and such.

 

There isn't really a budget for this so....let me hear your thoughts

 

Thank's in advance!

Define R6

 

-Sound dampening foam and side ventilation; allows for adequate airflow without releasing too much noise as confirmed by GamersNexus

-Can support an over 400mm GPU (the dont exist, but thats how muhc length you have to work with)

-Can hold 6 HDD's (brackets actually included)

If you've got the budget for them, Lian Li has some super nice looking cases, and they're more of a niche brand. They come in all shapes and sizes, so I'm sure you can find one that meets your needs.

The R6 is my backup if I don't find anything else, it has everything I need but there are a lot of them around

I was actually thinking of those, but I can't go to their site for some reason.

One thing that worries me is that most of them are metal everywhere, won't that transmit a lot of vibrations from the HDD's?

I also couldn't get on their site, so I just went to NewEgg.

 

I wouldn't worry about it, they're designed to use hard drives so I suspect they won't rattle. If you're concerned, look up some reviews.
