I'm looking to build a new rig but I just can't find the case I'm looking for, which is all important since my case will be the base upon which I will base all further decision makings as far as parts go.
What I'm looking for is:
1. silent-oriented : some measures of silence optimized design such as foam padding would be nice, no full-on gaming case maximized for air-flow.
2. water-cooling support : either 240/280 would be fine
3. stylish, minimalistic mid-tower : my old Define R3 case was good, but I'm getting bored of its dull design. nice 2 tone, or silver would be nice, nothing over the top.
4. no compromises : the H440, would otherwise be perfect but it has no 5.25" support. or the FT05 also looks good but I have to sacrifice its internal HD bays to fit my long PSU, etc.
I did quiet a bit of research but I can't seem to find any that fit the above criteria,
the only match I was able to dig up, Be Quiet!'s Silent Base 800 case, isn't out for sale yet.
If anyone have any opinions or suggestions, I'd appreciate it,
thanks everyone.
