Case needed for a 3090

[john_smith]

Hi

I've secured a 3090 and realised i'm going to need a bigger case to put it in. Is there anything I need to look for on the case dimensions to ensure it will fit?

I'm probably going to do an RGB build but with just a grey / back / smokey white theme.

Help.

Thank you.

Are you after an ATX, M-ATX, or ITX case?

What's your budget?

Do you want RGB or would you rather have a windowless case?

Is noise a concern?

I think ATX would be best.
Whatever it needs without being stupid. Upto £200?
RGB
Yes, i'd like it to be quiet.

Thank you.

I would recommend going for something mesh-fronted to ensure good airflow, here's a few of options for you:

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Corsair iCUE 5000X RGB Tempered Glass Mid-Tower Smart Case - White CC-9011213-WW= £169.99
• 1 x Phanteks Eclipse P400 Air Midi Tower DRGB Case - Black= £86.99
• 1 x CoolerMaster MasterBox TD500 Mesh Mid-Tower E-ATX Case - Black Tempered Glass= £84.95
• 1 x Corsair 4000X iCUE RGB Mid-Tower Gaming Case - White Tempered Glass (CC-9011205-WW)= £109.99
• 1 x Phanteks Eclipse P500 Air ATX Case Tempered Glass DRGB Glacier White= £127.99
• 1 x Lian-Li Lancool II Mesh RGB Midi-Tower Case - Black= £96.95

Total: £724.14 (includes shipping: £47.28)
​

All of the above can be found in both black and white versions, you may want to add to or flat our replace the fans depending on your needs.

Thanks for the suggestions, i'm going for the Lancool II Mesh.

Edit. Whoop Whoop. I can reply, sorry as a "new user" I was in forum prison for 24h as i'd posted more than 15 times in 24h. Ha

It's a good choice, I personally like the optional HDD backplane that is offered as an add-on item for the case.
