Looking for a new mid tower case for 2018

[TickleMyElmo]

So guys I'm growing weary of looking at my beautiful yet, humongous Phanteks Enthoo Luxe and looking forward to place my build inside a black mid tower case this time. Here are some of the wants/needs the right tower would have.

1. Looks. The more glass/acrylic the better and lots of RGB (yea, I'm corny) A PSU shroud would be nice but not a deal breaker without it.

2. Airflow. Decent airflow for my 240ml AIO, mb, and GPU.

3. Cable management. This is a tough one for me, because I still haven't gotten it down to being very perty yet. Decent cutouts and zip tie loops would be a big plus.

4. Black case. I'm kinda liking the cube cases lately for some reason too.

So if you guys could throw me some opinions, I'd really appreciate it. I plan on doing the makeover next month once my check comes. Looking forward to it.

Cooler Master seems to have had you in mind https://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007583 50001333 Phanteks has some nice stuff, and their RGB strips are compatible with most motherboard lighting.

I had a feeling that exact case would pop up. If only I could get the MasterCase H500P Mesh in black, I think that would've been the one. NVM, found one on CM's site.

I can't find this one.

Yeah, I saw that. I was hoping they'd have some kind of "Coming Soon!" on their website, but no luck. And newegg lists it, but the shortcut goes to nowhere. Someone at the 'egg seems to have screwed up listing it early. I do like the idea of two 200 mm fans up front, though. Seems a good way to move a lot of air quietly. I'm seeing that configuration here and there and wondering when we'll see 400 mm radiators for mid towers. Big water in a little box sounds like a good marketing move. Not everyone wants an apartment building of a case. Especially if the reason is just to hold your cooling.

this is a really nice mid tower thats actually affordable from lian li, altho it is oos. if i were building a mid tower rig i would go with this. its really well laid out and looks sweet. theres also a white interior one for the same price.

Inwin makes some awesome cases, plus they just sent me an email saying they are sponsoring my new 1950x build with the 101c line up. it doesn't have a lot of RGB but it's a very clean looking case

I forgor to say, it needs a psu cover. I have seen the reviews on the the lian li. It's nice. Costs too much for the 011.
