Hey guys, have been out of the PC building game for years now. My last PC case was a gigantic matrexx 55 mesh. Looking forward to making a new PC build with something smaller in mind while still having compatibility with atx PSUs and being able to potentially fit in a 5070 with an air cooled 9800x3D. Priority would be noise first and then temperatures. Aesthetically I dont have any preferences
 
CH160 is the best case for your usecase.. can fit big air coolers like the nhd15 + a atx supply upto 140mm long and a 305mm long gpu and most importantly is cheap af.

Looks awesome. Is there a slot for fans under the GPU or is it not needed? I guess optimal setup would be 1 fan at the front and 1 at the back?
 
Another option is Galax Rev-03. It is around 22 liters and can fit microATX motherboard and ATX power supply. Zeb Woodan is the same case rebranded by Zebronics. IIRC the original case design was SAMA IM01.

Although CH160 is a good case but it is around 20 liters and can't fit mATX motherboards. mITX motherboard are much more costly and the selection is very limited too.
