PC Cases - PLX-2M - 04-11-2016

I am now looking for an air cooled mid-size PC case. It needs to have capability of having 2 front fans (2 x 120mm), top fan (140mm or 200mm), as well as front facing USB 3.0 and audio ports.

I have not purchased a case in like 6 years, so have no idea what's out there these days. Which cases do you use and recommend?

Define R5, Corsair 200r. Go with an solid aluminum chassis with not much plastic.

That case looks similar to mine.

This is my case, it's a Thermaltake:

My thermaltake is a piece of junk. Id go with corsair or Coolermaster.

I've got the red version of this:

Despite what they show/say, ATX motherboards are very tight fits.

No shit. That sucked putting together.

That's what I was wondering. I was hoping I could somehow remove the rear fan and switch it with the one I posted in that thread.

Spoiler:
Didn't read into it much, not sure if it's possible.

What problems have you had?

Poor build quality. Front panel is messed up, bad solder joints on the buttons and flimsy plastic.
