I recently built my first gaming computer from scratch, and it was all going well for a week or so until I started running GPU heavy games.

I have a fx6300 on AS rock extreme mobo and a gtx 570 graphics card and corsair cx600 power supply.

As this is just a budget rig I got the cheapest case I could to house it all.

Now I am having overheating issues with the graphics card and hard drive being practically on top of each other and the case not being very well ventilated.

I have cut a large square out the side of the case and whacked on a silverstone 120mm fan but this still is not helping the overheating near the gpu.


I am hoping someone with the knowledge (not just a favourite case opinion) could recommend a good cooling case to house this in for £50 or under.

Thanks in advance.
