I'm currently trying to find a case for my H100i & ASUS P9X79 WS, but having no luck.
I don't want a full-tower, as a) I don't have that much space on my desk, and b) the PSU cables will be too short, and yes I know about cable extenders; I'd prefer a [super] mid-tower.
So far the best bet is the Fractal Design Define R4, so long as the H100i is mounted in the front, although I'm not keen on the unfiltered top vents (I'm aiming for positive pressure design) and from a visual point-of-view, wonder why the feet on this case look mismatched, the front are large silver, the back are small but half silver, half rubber. A downside for this configuration, my motherboard is slightly too wide @ 10.5" CEB size, and will cover most of the rubber grommets.
I *much* prefer the Lian-Li cases though, specifically the PC-Z60, PC-V750, and PC-90, but from looking at pictures, none of them will fit the H100i. Is there any Lian-Li case that'll fit this cooler? If not looking at full-tower, I don't think any of them will.
Thanks in advance.
