I have a HAF-X case but for my new build I figured I may as well get a nice glass case but that would still have decent air flow since my case is a high air flow case.
I dont want to mount on top because my Asus 1080ti is not blower type so in a case like the View 71, I will be getting hot air from the GPU into the CPU cooler. That was the idea of mounting in front so the 9900k got the benefit of cooler air from the radiator. If I were to mount on top, I am better off keeping the HAF-x instead.
So my options are keep what I have...get the evga CLC 280 and the View 71, or get the View 71 and keep the Floe 360 and change 1080ti to a water cooled one so I can place the radiator as rear exhaust.
