First of all, thank you so much for your help!

I spent a long time researching cooling options for the RM51, and after a lot of work, I came up with a final list that worked for me. However, I did run into one issue: the price of the RM51 is $450, and I imagine the RM52 costs around $500 with its three-inch case.

I used to have a Phantek Elite case, which was quite expensive, and only a few cases could handle the ASUS WRX Pro motherboard at the time. While I don't mind investing in quality parts over quantity, spending $500+ on a case seems too steep for me. Silverstone might offer a great deal on it, but they're in the business of making money, and I respect that.

Therefore, I ordered the BeQuiet 800 Dark Shadow - Black case, which is smaller than the Phantek Elite. I'm excited to receive it in a few days.

Thank you again for your assistance!

Also the other case I did consider is the up and company LianLi SUP 01. But I have not publically seen a release date for that one.

There is one case I saw on someone youtube page. The case was called an ALTA D1.

The problem that I see with that case is that doesn't has space for a radiator at top (right on horizontal), also the door is at your right (on vertical) ,and doesn't includes a left door (on vertical).
