I'm looking for a case to move my main system into. See specs for details. Requirements are:
Must fit a 360 rad in the top.
Have at least 3 2.5" bays, preferably 4, 5.25 and 3.5 not necessary.
Uhh, I guess those are the only two.

Thanks.

I love this case. I own two of them. You can fit an even larger rad in it than you want. All the SSDs install behind the mobo and there is room enough for the amount you require +. Its a sweet case that works well and cools well.

I have the 540 right now. A 360 only fits in the front. And since moving to a 360 rad my GPU idle temps have gone up 10°C.

Air 540 is a nice case. I have my 7900X in one.

Look at the Phanteks ENTHOO EVOLV ATX GLASS

I’d personally stay away from the evolv case.

I own one it’s a great looking case and very good build quality but the air flow in this case for water cooling is very poor.

There are several topics about the poor airflow performance of this case all over the internet if you want to do further research.

It looks really good, kinda big for my taste but if you are doing some watercooling then it seems pretty awesome.
The price is high though, there are many cases to be found for that price, even caselabs ones.

Update: For the time being I went with a Corsair Obsidian 750D Airflow Edition. It's a beast and will turn into my server box when I finally decide on a case for my primary system.

750D is a great case, will hold a ton of hardware while looking very classy (no angular plastic "boy gamer" nonsense).

Can vouch for the fractal design cases, very solid, good quality and smart design, plus unmatched sound dampening. I own a Define R4, and recently built into a Define C TG.

Check out the Fractal Design Meshify-C . It's a really nice looking case ,and it's affordably priced. Just don't buy it from Amazon because they're charging $20-$30 more than other retailers. If I recall correctly Newegg had it the cheapest for $79.99 w/ free shipping. There is another retailer that lists the price cheaper, I believe they have it marked at $59.99, but they charge around 30 bucks for shipping once you get through the checkout process which is just disingenuous




My personal opinion is that many fractal design cases are a bit too plain for my tastes, kind of like lian li. They're very nice cases and they're built very well, but a bit plain looking in my opinion. But the fractal meshify changes that ,and there's a couple others too

Note for the meshify c, the window is really tinted, you cannot see inside without some lights. Same case without the mesh front but enough opening is the define c TG with clearer(?) window.

I was leaning towards either the R6 or Corsair 500D. My local brick and mortar just got the R6 in stock today, so I'm picking one up tomorrow. Getting the blackout version. Newegg.ca has it $10 cheaper but there's shipping fees and won't actually ship it until next week. And I much rather support a local business over a corporation any day of the week.

After explaining to the store that the black and blackout versions of the r6 are different it turns out they won't be carrying the blackout version. Bastards! So I got a Phanteks Ethoo Evlov in satin black. Who comes up with these names?

The 750D will be turned into my server box.

Nice! I always wanted to try the Evolv ATX tempered glass, but it was a bit too cramped for all my hardware. Love the thick aluminum and the glass looks much better than the original (plastic window).
