I got the Fractal Design Define R5 Blackout Edition and it's a very tight fit. Can anyone recommend another case that will allow for the case fan and extra power inputs at the bottom to fit?
 
 
Thanks.

    Hello,
     
    unfortunately not at this time 
     
    If you are starting to narrow down your case search please make sure the case supports EATX form factor motherboards .

    Have you picked out a case yet?
     
    I'm rocking the Core P5 and I love it. Super easy to use, great cable management, easy setup if you want to go WC and you can mount it on the wall with a tv mount, stand it up or lay it flat.

    I don't see price limits unless I have overlooked them, Check out Caselabs any of there cases are amazing.  I run the SMA8 love the case, I was shell shocked at first buying it but after I got it built I wish I went with a bigger case from them lol.

    This is the case that I have. Love this case:

    Absolutely 1+ I took the front hardrive rack out to get even better air flow. With the four fans blowing in from the side door and one 220 in from the front, one 220 out on the top and a 140 out at the back the gtx 1080 rarely goes above 57c even during extended gaming runs. I have an aggressive fan curve in AB

    Yep. I have 4 fans, and the inside of my case stays pretty cool.     =)

    Since a price point wasn't specified... 
     
    CaseLabs TH10A
     
    More reasonable priced.
     
    Corsair 760T

    Considering there was no budget mentioned.......
    I have 2 cases for my systems and both provide great airflow. Both are from Cooler Master. I have the 932 and the Cosmos 2. I love both cases but the Cosmos 2 is my preferred. It's bigger and that means more room.
     
    When choosing a case placement needs to be considered. My Cosmos sits on a Lazy Susan so I can spin and clean/service as needed. The Cosmos is a very heavy case empty so keep that in mind also.
