Decided to go with a new case which should arrive next week via mail, will post pics once it's rebuilt. It was a tough choice between the Lian Li LANCOOL II and the Corsair 220T. Decided to go with 220T since it's smaller and includes 3 good RGB fans (bought a 4th for exhaust).

technically I bought the black version of the cooler.

Wanted to go air this time since my 5 year old NZXT AIO died recently.

I honestly think the color scheme is the only reason Noctua isn't much more popular in the air cooler space. Now they just need to make something a little more budget friendly because until you get over like 150 watts, the CM 212 black is within just a couple degrees of the u12 for like half the price.
