So I'm waiting for the new Intel CPUs to build a new computer.
Apart from the CPU and motherboard, i would go as follow :
- PSU : Corsair CX600M
- GPU : Gigabyte 7870 (with update to Crossfire in a year or two)
I plan to get an equivalent to the i5-3470 or 3450k, but do not plan to overclock at all.
Problem is : I have no idea what case to go for. I plan to keep the case for a long time (future upgrades and builds), so I don't mind putting up to 100/120$ on the case. For the moment I was thinking about Corsair Carbide 500r, but was wondering if it's overkill.
I would like suggestions and feel free to comment on the hardware i plan to get.
Note : I live in Canada and sorry for my mediocre English.
Thank you,
Francois B.
