I'm looking for a case that won't block access to RAM when using an NVIDIA 4090, and I really like having the power button located at the bottom. I previously used larger NZXT cases, but I recently bought a 4090/13900k build in a Hyte Y60 case, and it feels cramped. I have a MSI Pro Z690-A motherboard, Gskill F5-6000J3040G32G RAM, and a Corsair iCUE H150i Elite cooler. Currently, with only two RAM sticks installed, I can't run them at full speed and swapping things around is quite tricky. I prefer cases with glass panels for the RGB and am not set on vertical or side mounting. Any suggestions for a case that fits these needs would be appreciated!

You might want to consider that even with four matched RAM sticks, achieving high speeds can be tricky since consumer DDR5 boards typically work better with one stick per channel. A good alternative could be the Montech HS02—it has the bottom power button you’re looking for, provides good GPU cooling, and comes with a glass panel along with a hidden PSU design.

Thanks for the suggestion! I managed to get decent speeds with my last build using DDR3/4, but I guess DDR5 is a different ball game. I'll check out the Montech!
