I have an older Gamnidas (generic) mid-tower case that's seen the end of its days. Two of the USB port connections are bad, a few of the fans are sputtering, and I never really enjoyed working with it. The biggest issue, however, is it's a bit too narrow for my video card (Zotac 5090), and I need to keep the side panel off as the cables are impeded by it. She needs to be put out to pasture.

I have a particular use case. My desk is a massive old banker desk with a hutch. It has a big enclosure in the bottom that can fit a good-size case, but airflow must go front-back only.
  • 57cm height max
  • 26cm wide max
  • 56cm deep max
  • 3-4 USB (2.0 or 3.0) on the front of the case (Ideally with 200mm fans for sound and flow)
  • Good front-back airflow
  • Support full ATX
Money no object with reason (<£250). Any suggestions?
 
Yes, "hutch" is the word I was looking for. Those dimensions are the max I could fit with a bit of space around. My current case fits with a good amount of room.

Does it have a door? Get a motherboard mount and install it without a case?
