Hi, I have Antec nx100 cabinet with core i5-8400 + msi h310 pro vh + Corsair vengeance 8*2 ram and antec neo eco 550m psu. Need everyone's help to select a good case that can accommodate future builds easily with decent amount of top clearance and nice features. Thank you

Go with this as this case comes with 2 x200mm front intake & 1 x120mm rear exhaust. All fans are ARGB fans along with built in LED controller and ARGB fan connector built in.

This looks fine, in NX800 they put mashed grill behind the fans too which reduces the airflow. Check the below youtube video for review of Phanteks MetallicGear Neo Air:

I have heard that NX800 is a good case as well. Cooler Master MB511 RGB is another good option which costs less compared to NX800.

That Phanteks one looks good as well. It doesn't have an included rear fan, which is must IMO, for exhaust. I didn't watch the detailed review posted earlier, but OP, do watch that & reviews for other cases. Gamer Nexus has some good case reviews.

With cabinets, look for meshed front, good fan support & HDD/SSD support, otherwise almost any case from a big company is usually good. Cabinets are something which do get sold for their design as well, so opinions vary.

The thing is NX800 front fans have a meshed metallic grill behind them so I doubt their airflow will be any good.

The nx800 has proprietary 6pin connector for the front two fans and my concern is that if it breaks down after the warranty period (1year) is over then how would I replace it ?
Watched gamer nexus channel and liked only the phanteks p400a. Btw, spoke to the Odisha reseller of phanteks and he said that p400a will be in stock around August.
Else my only option is metallic gear neo air which comes with two year warranty. *uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200627/872b703eb2312c8982da94a7d2b298a3.jpg
