Mid Tower Case

[wvargasiii]

Looking for a good looking mid tower case that will work with this set up. My biggest priority is cooling but, I would like it to look good too. First time builder . Also if you could recommend a power supply to go into the case.

Is there a specifc brand you perfer? Like Corsair, NZXT, Thermaltake etc? Some of my favorites include the NZXT H440 and the Corsair 760T.

As for PSUs, the best one to go for would be this one: http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438054

My chief concerns are, it will be easy to work with the first time, good cooling. I may have to sacrafice the looks I was just looking for the whole package haha, maybe that is too much to ask for I am not sure.

oh and that the PSU you suggest will fit without issue

Actually I just realized that the 760T is a full tower case. So scratch that.

The H440 is a relatively easy case to work with. However, all cases have their small inconveninces. It's something that's unavoidable.

However, I've built rigs in the H440, and it not a bad case to build in at all. Would highly recommend.

Just one tip: Make sure you plug in ALL the PSU cables to the PSU BEFORE you put the PSU in the case.

BTW...I see you have the 450D currently installed in your PCPP right now. If you are considering that case, I would recommend it, it's not bad. However, it is a bit older and thus is harder to build in than some of the newer cases.

Here is my build if you want to check it out: https/pcpartpicker.com/b/nZVYcf

EDIT: I just realized that you need a DVD ROM 5.25' case housing, the H440 does NOT support DVD rom drives. Sorry. I'll look for another case.

Here's the case: http/www.corsair.com/en-us/carbide-series-100r-mid-tower-case

It's good quality, cheap, and features a DVD ROM bay.
