I was thinking of using the fractal Meshify 2 ATX mid tower case for my new PC build. I was going to purchase the Corsair 5000D, but there are apparently issues with the dust filters getting sucked in and some other things. So now I'm leaning towards the fractal the fractal. I'd just like to hear what you guys think about the case. If you don't like it feel free to recommend other cases. Attached below is my build. Thank you for your time.

it's designed pretty well with some good options for fan/radiator placement and good airflow.

the only negative i would say is that it only fits 120mm exhaust fan in the rear, not 140mm, and the ugly front panel.
but neither is really that huge of a deal.
Oh I was wondering, If given the mounting opportunity, should I always go with 140 mm over 120?
 
I have the Meshify C and I have no problems with it. My fan configuration is two 140mm fans on the front and 120mm fans on the rear and top (just one for the top). The 3x120mm on the front didn't make much sense to me since I have nothing worth cooling in the bottom compartment and the flow was kind of awkward for my hardware.

The only flaw with it, if it's like mine, is the reset button isn't flush. I've had way too many accidental resets happen.
