I'm trying to find a new PC case because my current one, the Lian-Li Lancool II, doesn't have enough clearance to fit both of my graphics cards: a PNY RTX 3080 and an ASRock A380 Challenger. I'd love some recommendations for a case that offers a bit more space for my setup! Here's a quick rundown of my specs: CPU is an i7 12700KF, I'm using a Cooler Master Hyper 212 for cooling, and I've got 64GB of DDR4 RAM. Storage includes a 1TB M.2 drive and a 4TB HDD. Can anyone suggest a suitable case?

What’s the purpose of the A380? If it’s mainly for encoding or stream processing, you might want to prioritize airflow and space for cooling when choosing the case. Otherwise, something like the NZXT H510i could work, but verify GPU compatibility!
Make sure to check out cases like the Fractal Design Meshify 2 or the Corsair 4000D! They have great airflow and plenty of space for dual GPUs. Just double-check the dimensions to ensure they’ll fit your setup.
Thanks! I’ll look into those options. I'm mostly concerned about clearance for the dual setup.
You might run into issues with the PSU housing, especially if you're using a standard ATX layout. I linked an example of a case that could pose potential clearance issues. Just something to keep in mind when browsing.
Good point! The A380 is mainly for encoding while I stream on Twitch. I’ll keep cooling in mind.
