Need ATX case suggestions

I'm looking for ideas for a new case for my build.  I'm having a hard time finding what I need because I need a case that has at least one front drive bay for a DVD drive, room for a massive Asus RTX4090 graphics card (24 GB card and very long! 14 inches or 355 MM) and room for a 360 MM radiator.  I also have 2 full size hard drives and a smaller SSD drive.

Does anyone have any good suggestions?

So I think I've landed on this case by Corsair.  It is a full tower so it is large but I don't have the under desk space for a dual chamber case, which would be shorter but much wider.  I does not appear to have an ODD bay.

This Corsair case has the room for a full length GPU, multiple HDD bays, and SSD bays as well.  I think I'll be getting this case...

Thanks, will check out the details.  Looks pretty economical too!

So the one issue with this Zalman case is the limited radiator length.  I need to be able to go with a 360mm radiator and this case seems to have a limit of 280mm.

That is a very nice case, but you might want to double check if it has a 5.25" drive bay as that is what you'll need for a DVD player/burner.

I don't see a 5.25" drive bay listed for the Corsair 7000D.

 

 

 

 

I think you might be correct.  I was basing my thinking that it did have the ODD bay on one image that I was seeing in the features description but I'm now thinking that what I'm seeing isn't an ODD.  I'm guessing that is the end of the radiator mounted up top.

Ah ok,

Here are a couple that support a 360mm radiator and 5.25" drive bays.

The Thermaltake cases are customizable, you'd install the 5.25" mounting bracket for your DVD burner.

Thermaltake Core V51 Mid tower - Core V51 Tempered Glass Edition

Thermaltake Core V71 Full tower - Core V71 Tempered Glass Edition

Thank you for those suggestions!  I will check them out.
