Hello guys, I have a k380 now, and I suffer from too bad cable management and not enough cooling. I live in India, do the prices here are a bit weird. Should I upgrade to mastercase 5 pro (costing me 12999 inr)? Is it worth it? Will I get more space? If not this, could you people suggest me some good cabinets under 15k INR?
Thanks!

NO, cable management is not the only culprit with heat issues; and if you cannot do good cabling in a large case like K380, I doubt if you can do any better in the Master case 5; Don't waste money;

Let's try to address your heat issue:

1. If you suspect cabling, buy some rubber bands (cable ties, if available) and bind the floating ones, put most of the unused cables next to the PSU on the floor
2. For good airflow, buy 120mm fans and arrange like this: front intake, bottom intake; side outflow, top outflow, rear outflow; if you are short of fan mounts, get fan splitter and connect similar ones to the same mount
3. Relocate your CPU to a place that gets air movement

Notes:
1. Poor thermals can be addressed with air flow
2. Your build...
