Best ATX Mid tower/full tower case for cable management

The un known · Sep 13, 2016

SO I am in the process of building my first ever gaming PC with a red/black theme and I need a case that can hold a GTX 1060 windforce edition card (8.78 in.) and a 139mm CPU cooler, here is a list of parts that I am getting for this build

already have power supply.

The un known · Sep 13, 2016

forgot to mention that my budget for this case is around $70-$80 so if you guys can find any case between that budget best for cable management it would be great.

The NZXT S340 is a great case in that price range, features a power supply shroud which will cover your cables from view, and it has good grommets/cable routing.
You've bought a B150 motherboard and a K processor, are you overclocking?
Because if so you'll want a better cooler and a different motherboard.
What is the budget for your build? (Including case)
What is the power supply you already have?

The un known · Sep 13, 2016

I'm probably not going to be overclocking as of right now.

and my budget is around $800-$850

and i have an EVGA Supernova 750 watt, semi modular

You can do MUCH better with that budget.
I'll get something back to you in a sec.

Is it the Supernova NEX?
Because that's a low quality unit. :/
Can you return it?

It;s this one, and even if it is a low quality, I got it in April so I can't return it anymore

thanks, I'll consider that

Chugalug_ · Sep 13, 2016

Oh nooooo not the B1.

Oh well, it will still work I guess, just don't try to go 1070 SLI with it, as under high load it can damage components, it will be perfectly fine with the parts listed though.

How about the Fractal Design Define R5? I have one and love it!

Chugalug_ · Sep 13, 2016

Performance always takes priority over aesthetics, the Fractal R5 is a bit too expensive to fit in this budget without sacrificing key components.

If he wants an mATX case, I used to have the Aerocool DS Cube and that's a very nice case. I sold it to a friend to help fund my new system.

I'm like trying to find a case under &75 ish that has good specs like cable management, fans, drive cages and also looks good

Chugalug_ :

Asus B150 PRO GAMING/AURA ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

No worries there it's a B150 can't SLI.

Chugalug_ · Sep 14, 2016

Yeah, if he goes Z170 in the future and carries over the PSU for SLI 1070s I mean, should have elaborated.

The un known :

The NZXT S340 is pretty much the single best case under $75, with the Fractal Design Define series being the next best thing, but a little more expensive.
Take a look and see what you think.

The un known · Sep 15, 2016

I have an NZXT Guardian right now but the only thing I don't like about it is the max GPU length in that case is like 9.9 inches and doesn't have much room for cable management

Chugalug_ · Sep 15, 2016

The S340 has a 334mm clearance for graphics cards with a radiator installed, and 364 without one, plenty of room.
