Fishtank style + airflow: Deepcool CG530 4F vs Cooler Master Elite 681 – and any better options?

Hey Everyone

I’m trying to choose a case focused on good airflow while keeping a clean “fishtank‑style” look (glass front + RGB). My budget is around ₹5,000–6,000, and I’m stuck between the Deepcool CG530 4F and Cooler Master Elite 681, both of which ship with 4 ARGB fans.

My build:

CPU: Intel Core i7‑14700K

GPU: RTX 5070

CPU cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120

PSU: Deepcool GamerStorm PN850M (850W, 80+ Platinum)

Storage: 2 × 2.5" SSD and 1 × 3.5" HDD

I want as much airflow as possible, but still like the showcase‑style front glass and ARGB. I’ll be using my existing fans plus 2 × Ant Esports 120mm fans.

Questions:

- Between the CG530 4F and Elite 681, which one will give better thermals and airflow for this combo?

- Are there any better airflow‑oriented fishtank‑style cases under \~₹6k that aren’t worse for cooling? (e.g., Antec CX300 Panoramic, other Ant Esports / Cooler Master models?)

- How should I set up the preinstalled fans (intake vs exhaust) and where should I place the extra 2 Ant Esports 120mm fans for best cooling and minimal noise?

Any fan‑brand or layout suggestions for this build would be appreciated. Thanks!

Best place to sell a desktop - Moving to hometown for a week

I had bought and built a desktop PC back in November of 2023 after years of wanting to buy one.

However, from Jan-2024, I had a lot of travel come up and probably stayed 4 months in my hometown. And in 2025, stayed just 4 months in my hometown as I got a job in Gurguram. However, now I am changing jobs again and would be visting my hometown for a week this month. I already have a macbook and a geforce now subscription - so I don't really need a PC anymore.

I'm looking to sell the PC as a whole. From my past experience, OLX and FB marketplace have really long lead times and I would have only a few days to go through with the sale.

Are there any alternate portals or websites to sell my desktop? Ideally, I would prefer face-to-face, but I doubt it would be possible where I stay (Guwahati - Assam).

Also, if anyone can tell me a value I should quote?

My config is as follows (All items purchased Nov-23, unless specified):

  • Asus RTX 4060 OC GPU
  • Asus AP201 case
  • Cooler Master Bronze 550W PSU
  • AMD Ryzen 5600 CPU
  • MSI B550M Pro VDH Wifi motherboard
  • 64 GB RAM - Corsair Vengeance LPX 3600Mhz DDR4:
    • 16GB x 2 - Bought Nov-23
    • 16GB x 2 - Bought Apr-25
  • 2 TB SSD:
    • Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB M.2 PCIe NVMe - Bought Apr-23 (from prev. laptop)
    • Crucial P3 Plus 1TB PCIe M.2 NVMe Gen4 - Bought Dec-24
  • Cooler Master SickleFlow 120 Fans - 02 Qty

I do not have current photos as I will be visiting later this month. I do, however, have all the bills for all the items listed above.

Recently a person(u/Sm0k3_bl00d_66613) from Kolkata posted about a month old 5070 on r/IndianGaming
https://www.reddit.com/r/IndianGaming/comments/1tcraqz/comment/om9gyej/?context=3

We connected on whatsapp. Got some benchmarks and foolish me did the payment(5k+40k) after seeing he has packed the shipment with his and my address on it. Before sharing AWB, he asked for full payment. Once complete, 2 days in, i havent received any tracking details. I have been following up since and keep getting same responses, WAIT!!!

Invoice name matches with whatsapp name

As soon as i added a comment that I have done full payment on his thread, he deleted the post.

Raised grievance
