I've got ~£120 that I can spend on a case and I need help choosing one. I'm looking at the Air 540 atm but the lack of dust filters / 3.5 bays disturbs me. Anyone got any ideas for a nice case that will fit a top mounted H100i in push pull without modding? A nice amount of cable management space and dust filters would be a plus but I can always buy some magnetic ones and stick them on the case myself.
 
If you can stretch to 150 than ill recommend my case. Reason i recommend it because i've been absoloutley stunned at the dust filtration and cooling of it. I previosuly had the HAF 912 and although it was awesome at first dust and heat issues was a problem (It did make a nice heater in the winter though!) and with the NZXT 810 i've been nothing but pleased with its performance. Plus the pictures do NOT do it justice, its an awesome looking case with a very nice large window pannel to see all your goodies. The screwless mounting is also helpfull + the amount of fans you can get in this thing is insane. I currently have 3 140mm on the top of the case followed by the h100i with a push pull config and it works a dream!

push pull configs on radiators don't actually make any difference mate. Due to that, I'd get something like this to kill the noise and have a rather nice setup.

For £79 you can get a nice case with dust filters though in the form of the corsair carbide 300R. It comes with filters on the side and top vents, which means that if you needed more you could always buy some magnetic dust filters from the shop here and still save money anyway.
 
How easy is it to add a PSU dust filter onto the side of the Air 540? Will it stick to the outside or do you have to get a custom made one?
 
just got a 540 and its the best case iv owned cable management is a breeze (hide it all in the back lol)
I would recommend it to anyone
 
Completely agree with snips86x and MrAdamski the new H440 especially in red and black looks stunning, also fits your price range perfectly.
 
That's true, I'll trawl through a few of the CES vids for it. Rather interested to know myself.

According to NZXT shipping will be early Feb. Can't link to it since it's the NZXT store page.
