Will my build fit just right in this case: Thermaltake Commander MS-I Snow Edition ?http://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-Commander-Edition-VN40006W2N-Tower/dp/B007BDJ58M

i5 4670k

MSI Z87-G45 PRO GAMING LGA1150

Samsung 128 GB 840 series SSD

8 GB Corsair Vengeance RAM

1 TB WD Caviar Black HD

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO

Corsair 750W Power Supply

Dual SLI Gigabyte GTX 770 OC 4GB

Will it all fit? Will there be a lot of space? Will it be tight? Will it not fit at all?
On another note, will all these components work together anyway?

Thanks!

P.S. This is my first build. So feel free to criticize it, or suggest some improvements etc.

It has enough space for expansion cards and stuff. It has the space for crossfire and is a well known case. You would really not have problem fitting two cards.

If one of them fits in then the other one would also be able to fit in there. The space is ample for SLI.

Would this case be better?http://www.amazon.com/NZXT-Source-210-ELITE-Midtower/dp/B005869IUY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1376895868&sr=1-1&keywords=white+computer+case

I'm gunning for a Nice White Case for under $70. Feel free to suggest some better cases! :)

3 main things you will want to check (do the research it pays off). One is what size boards it fits (ATX, micro ATX, etc.) That board is an ATX board I believe so check the specs to see if it lists ATX as one of the sizes it fits. The PSU should probably fit, usually there is some sort of "psu zone" designed to fit most psu, and corsair isnt exactly huge so that should be fine. Next you want to see what it lists for how big a cpu cooler it can fit. The hyper 212 evo is 159 mm, so if the size it says it fits is bigger than 159 mm you're fine. SLI GPU might get cramped depending on the board and how big the card is, but the big issue is likely going to be card length. The specs say it's going to be 292 mm long, you need to make sure your case specs say that can fit. Also keep in mind that you will want to have case fans, so remember to have those fit in too

Here is the spec sheet^^^

I believe that everything fits according to that, but you want to do your own research to double check.

**as a side note, i dont remember how big a psu you need for sli 770, but i feel like you will want to bump it up to 850w, also would be a good idea if you plan to overclock i think

i would personally recommend the white version of the fractal r4 (if you want to afford it). it's $90, but it's really nice and good and quiet in my opinion

Thanks for the info! I checked some other thread and it said that 660W is good enough for 770 Dual SLI. In the specs page, it said 120x120x25. I'm not sure what you mean by 159mm, is that squared cubed?
I checked and the motherboard would fit. :)
My main concern is that the dual GTX 770s might not fit. The Fractral Design case seems to be a bit pricey for me, as I'm trying to center the money I spend on the internals. I was also thinking of getting this case as it seems slightly bigger:http://www.ebay.com/itm/RAIDMAX-Seiran-ATX-902WW-White-Steel-Plastic-ATX-Mid-Tower-Computer-Case-/290961980074?pt=US_Computer_Cases&hash=item43beaf7aaa

Thanks for helping a noob like me out. It means a lot.

Even with the Dual GTX 770s? Will it be cramped or anything?

1. NZXT Source 210 Elite (White) : 44 Dollars : http://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-case-s210e002
2. Bitfenix Shinobi Window (White) : 75 Dollars : http://pcpartpicker.com/part/bitfenix-case-bfcsnb150wwwbsp
3. NZXT Phantom (White) : 79 Dollars : http://pcpartpicker.com/part/nzxt-case-phan001wt

Sorry, but there are not a lot of white cases in that budget and the ones that are they are not from good brands. But you are lucky that for just 5 dollars more you can get the Bitfenix Shinobi Window White which is an awesome case.

Also the NZXT Phantom is an absolute beast but it is also a Full Tower Case, so it might be way too big for your needs.

But if you won't mind going with the Source 210 then it is not a bad option either. It is way better than the Thermaltake Case, believe me..

Anyways the three of these cases are better than the Thermaltake Case that you were talking about.

I think I'll be going for the NZXT Source 210. My only problem, is that the Hyper 212 EVO will be a really tight fit in that case. Just hoping I can squeeze it in. If you can also suggest a similar quality cooler that is smaller, then that would be great! :) Thanks for your help!

Sorry for my change of mind, but I would like some suggestions for a good case that would fit my build. This could be any color, but if possible sub $80 and would have ample working space. This is my first build, so I guess I should focus on building it more easily first. Thanks All!

Thanks a lot! My only problem is cramming 2 GPUs inside. I'm starting out with 1 770, but I plan to add another on my birthday.
