Just my opinion on what I like... but those are too closed off for me. And for that reason, wouldn't make my builds.

But that's me :-)

Late to this party but I hope you did not go for liquid cooling on this CPU. It's a waste. Air cooling is more than sufficient for this.

Like @pparks1 said, grab the Meshify 2 if you want front mesh combined with the kind of dust filtering capability that'll give you true peace of mind. AFAIK all the other cases with front mesh (and regardless of which brand you choose) will cripple the cooling by more than just one or two degrees... only the Meshify 2 doesn't. Also, if you think that the Meshify 2 XL would be totally oversized for the average gaming rig, think again, as going for an oversized case with lots of case fans all of which (or almost) are 140mm or bigger case fans running at low rpm is the only way to make the Noctua NH-D15 CPU aircooler really shine when it comes to noise and performance. So, if you see some reviews claiming that the Noctua NH-U12A outperforms the Noctua NH-D15, then what they almost certainly forgot to tell you is that it's because either insufficient case airflow or insufficient extra breathing space (or both...) hurts the NH-D15 more than it will hurt the NH-U12A. To compensate for lower rpm which gives less noise and attracts less dust, increasing number of fans and increasing fan diameter size are a no brainer. But increasing the volume of air with increased case interior space also helps to keep the airflow stable in addition to that. Less turbulence = more hot air gets shoved out of the case faster. As a bonus, you get more space for you to be able to more easily reach all the various hardware components when you clean out the dust. Sometimes, bigger really is better. lol

Define 7





Image1.jpg



The Fractal Design Define 7 is a seriously nice case. ^^

The hinged front panel can be set to open from either side, or removed.
The case will take 9x 120 or 140mm fans, and has a built in fan hub as well.




The Phanteks Enthoo Evolv X is also a seriously nice case.

The Fractal Design Define 7 is a seriously nice case. ^^

The hinged front panel can be set to open from either side, or removed.
The case will take 9x 120 or 140mm fans, and has a built in fan hub as well.

That's what I have. And it's very quiet. It's also probably the heaviest case I've ever had.

Define 7

The Define 7 is the latest pinnacle of the renowned Define series, setting a new standard for what you should expect from a mid-tower case when it comes to modularity, flexibility and ease of use.

I have this unhealthy attraction to really nice computer cases. :D



That's the main reason I'm "still" using the Cooler Master ATCS 840 (2009).
Probably the coolest thing is the motherboard tray. It's on drawer slides.
I take out 4 thumb screws and I can pull the whole motherboard tray out of the case, with everything still attached.
(vid card, CPU cooler, etc.)
When it's time to upgrade... it takes me about 15 - 20 mins. :-)

The Define 7 has some fairly serious thermal design issues.
