Show us your PC case

Forget the below since everyone else has :fp:

I figure now's as good a time as any to start looking for new PC components but I might see if you have any recommendations

Height must be less than 485mm

Length/Depth should be long enough to fit a nVidia 680GTX 4GB (275mm)

USB3

Decent cooling, prefer no window this time, or a case with a switch to turn off LEDs.

No PSU, will BYO.

2 first lines are most important, if you have any suggestions will be happy to consider them.

My current case is an original Antec 900 from 2008. Excessively heavy and bright (LEDs) and noisy, but it was the correct dimensions and offered good cooling.

LOVE my case.

Looks a bit big, no?

I think it's the largest mid tower you can get haha

and it's 508mm :/

I'm a Corsair fanboy but the C70 is solid.

It's 538 holy crap.

Got it. Bitfenix Prodigy..

If a 690 can fit, you're good.

I have a Cooler Master 690 II Advanced. You can get it with or without a window. It can easily fit the 680, you can turn the LED's on and off, it has enough slots for 10 fans (iirc it comes with 4 fans) and it doesn't come with a PSU. Only thing that goes against what you said is the height, it's 496mm tall

^ My case. Clicky for specifications.

Don't know if it can fit your card, and it doesn't come with a PSU. LED lights function by wires but I'm not 100% sure.

Got the tape measure and it looks like I have 49cm to play with, say 485mm to be safe, Probably best not to have a fan in the top of the case for that reason.
