Hello. So I need help finding a new case. Currently using a Carbide 100R. I'm looking for something that will support 3 or 4 3.5" drives and 1 or 2 SSD drives. I also wish to get a 240mm AIO setup to replace my 120mm I'm using. Must also support a full ATX motherboard. (AB350-Gaming 3) Also Windowed/Tempered side panel.

 

Thanks.

Corsair 450d maybe?

Hmm can that fit a 240 on the front? Looks like it's just the top but the AB350-Gaming 3 RAM slots sit kind of high so might have clearance issues.

It's hard to find anything new that has 4 that either isnt "Purchase optional drive bays separately", a huge full tower, or over $150

 

Some older cases would be the H440 and the HAF 912. A newer one would be the Cooler Master MC500P

I like the look of the Cooler Master MC500P. Is that the same as the MasterCase Pro 5? I saw a Video on LLT YT channel about it.

It's basically the same, with a tempered glass panel added.

Looking at the MC500P on amazon it has the tempered glass panel which looks awesome.

Thanks for the suggestion.

It will fit.

What is actually supposed to go here? Some people put their specs, others put random comments or remarks about themselves or others, and there are a few who put cryptic statements.
