Computer Case

Hi, can anyone recommend a good airflow case for a Z390 MB with an I7 9900K cpu?

There are so many out there and was wondering what you guys are using and what works.
Like to get a Mid Tower size one.

Thanks in advance,
Dusty

Haha with a name like that, one without too much grilles and stuff :stuck_out_tongue:
I wouldn’t know. I think almost any case is as good as the next one. I use a very old Antec 1200. Huge fugger. Designed by Darth Vader. Big ol’ fan up top. Lasted me through at least two motherboards now.

Welcome to the spike @dustman! :mudspike:

One of the Meshify series perhaps? Should have outstanding airflow.

I spec’ed a Coolermaster H500 , largely on the basis of a vid by Gamers’s Nexus , in which they tested 10 (i think) cases for cpu and gpu cooling (Air) . It came in 1st on one and third on the other .
With an ambient of 76F , a full-run test using Realbench and Afterburner showed 60C on a 9700k at 4.8 (turbo) with a Noctua NH-D15S . Haven’t overclocked the cpu yet as it would be pointless until i replace my gpu (1070) .

I’ve been really happy with my CORSAIR Crystal 460X. It is quiet, well made, and looks cool.

That thing looks like it could up and fly away lol.

Hey thanks everyone for the suggestions. I will check out the ones mentioned.
There sure is a lot of cases to choose from today.
Thanks again everyone.
