Your recommendations on cases. I could use them!

My power supply conked out a few weeks ago and I replaced it with one of those Corsair RM850s with the plugs on the side.

As I was putting it in I realized the giant case I've got this stuff in is probably 15 years old and is showing its age. I'd like to replace it with something a newer and hopefully a little smaller. I've got a Gigabyte AORUS 4070 GPU in there so I know whatever I get is going to have to be fairly large to fit it.

I've always liked ones from Corsair and Fractal Designbut open to others as well.
 
Oops, forgot to mention the rest here. This one's got a Gigabyte X570 Aorus master ATX motherboard. The only drives in there are a couple m.2/NVME. At some point a 2.5" may not go in there unless it gets put in another pc.

So basically any ATX case would be compatible.
How About Fractal Design Meshify 2 ?

Thanks that's pretty snazzy looking. I'll read up on it. I see they have a compact version too. Wonder if that would fit.

Every few years when it's time to upgrade one of the pcs it gets me thinking back to the old days of desktop cases before towers became popular. (And everything was beige.)
 
Your GPU length is 342mm. Any ATX mid or full tower that can accept that length is ok for you. Just depends on looks, price and availability.

I've never owned a Phanteks (had Fractal Design Core 3000 and North; like 'em), but they have some very nice cases. Some pricy, some not.
Here's Eclipse G360A
