Discussion Cases that can handle 400w+ next gen gpu

[Kit]

So there's allot of sources, that are speculating that lovelace could push 400-500w and Rdna3 is looking like 400w.

So naturally that means that the 4080...etc level cards are going to be very beefy.

I was looking at the Q58 but I've seen reviews that it doesn't actually support 320mm, more like 310mm and I think that won't be enough.

So now I'm looking at the Meshy and NR200, what else should I look at for a next gen high end air cooled gpu?

It's pretty hard to guestimate when one do not have any clue about the actual design of the next gen of GPU. Triple slot ? Quad Slot ? Very wide ? It's too early honestly.

Unfortunately I need a case now, I wanted to get something that had taken the power levels of the new cards into consideration

Watercooling aside, mods like deshrouding, intake ducting and exhaust isolation will likely be the best way to handle those thermal power levels.
The upcoming DAN/Lian-Li C4-SFX will likely be a good candidate, but currently the best case for such mods is the NR200.

Along with the Dan C4, This Case , should fit the bill.

I recently did a rig build for someone using the Jonsbo V8 . It's solid, roomy but not too big. It lacks the polish of a high end boutique case as it is more of a mass production item. It's a good choice in my opinion.

Too many to sum up, anything that supports GPU's up to 300-ish mm and triple-slot with decent airflow should be good to go.

Use the SFF Master List and apply filters to find a case that you'd deem suitable for yourself.
