hi all guys, as you read yet, i'm looking for a case, and that's what i need:

 

-A vertical gpu mounting by default (like cm h500p)

 

-A separated space for psu, like the one h500p has, if you look closely it is closed on the side,

for comparison the second layer of master maker 5t it's opened

 

-Space on top for 240 radiator

 

-Glass is well accepted on the main lateral side, but im not really looking for glass in every side

 

-An accurated default dust filters cleaning method

 

-A good cable management (i know that some midi tower suffer that)

 

I can either be midi tower or full tower, don't really care about that.

The reason i didn't choose the H500P is theyr low plastic quality. It's really frustrating.

 

Thanks for all the support readers!

Fractal Design Define R6 (the ribbon for vertical mounting is an option though, so be sure to buy that too)

 

I wouldn't go with a vertical GPU, those are known to run a lot hotter and louder because they just don't get enough room to draw in air.

Cards using a vertical GPU slot are too close to the side panel and dont get enough air, which makes them suffer in performance. Significantly. Unless you water-cool them, it's highly suggested you stick to the horizontal configuration.

Is the design of the R6 too simple/minimalistic for you?

The most annoying thing it's the fact half space is covered by hdd rack T_T

 

Losing performance? There Isn't any fix to that? i can't place the vga letting fan face the inside of the case, instead the glass?

Nope. Cards can only be installed one direction in a PCI-E slot and are not reversible.

Clearly you havent looked too far into this case because that HDD side is removable!

The Plate that's at the front shifts to the back, reducing your 3.5" HDD capacity from 10 to 2, but giving you more room for watercooling.

Looking deeper in italy there isnt much availability of the vga adapter so im at the starting point. There isn't any other option? It would be frustrating to wait next case series.

 

I'm really going to make a pc desk T_T
