Question New case

[natan090]

hi guys,
I have to change case of a PC:
i9 14900k
rtx 4090
asus rog strix z790-e
corsair vengeance ddr5 32x2


the case should be compatible with 420mm AIO

In your opinion, which one of the best case could it be?
that doesn't have a very high price
thanks

the best cases I've worked with recently have been produced by Lian Li & be quiet!.

the be quiet! Shadow Base 800 is currently ~$80 on Amazon.
a very nice deal for a very nice case with 420mm options.

the be quiet! Silent Base 802 has been my favorite to build in for a couple years now.
the Lian Li LanCool III is also very nice to work with.

thanks for the reply
what changes between Shadow Base 800 and 802?
the Lian Li LanCool III is very interesting

Be careful when you use 420 radiator it can make a difference how tall memory you can use and if your video card will fit depending on where you put the radiator.

This guy does not like the shadow base 800 and one concern is that 420 don't fit.

There are cases like many from lian li than allow you to mount the motherboard lower so the radiator does not overlap when you top mount.

Mostly on cases is get one you like more than anything else. Avoid ones that do not have lots of mesh panels. Some people like glass fish bowl cases but all that glass makes it hard to get good air flow.
