Hi guys.
Just got a 1070 and wanting to upgrade from my Zalman Z11 Plus as it's not super easy to clean and I just want to start fresh.
My only requirement is that the case can fit a 285mm GPU.
1) I only cool via air (no water cooling)
2) I don't braid cables and I think I'd be too lazy to even though I'd like it very much
3) I don't have a modular PSU so I think I can't make excellent cable management
Because of that I don't think I need a case that's all glass but I would prefer having some sort of window on the side to showcase my 1070
Big plus if the case has good fans as I don't have any custom fans either. I could take some from my Zalman Z11 Plus but then I wouldn't be able to sell it off I guess.
Budget doesn't matter as long as It's a very good case for my needs (shouldn't be too expensive I assume though). I don't want a cheap quality case - would prefer very good aesthetics and build quality. Maybe no shiny plastic as I think I've scratched my shiny plastic on top of my Z11 Plus now a lot, the rest of the case is Matte sort of plastic which is what I like.
