I've been putting parts together for the past few weeks but I'm having most of my trouble with the case. I started with the Corsair 500r in mind since it was large, had a side panel fan, and looked nice.
After some research, I picked the Fractal Arc Midi R2 instead, for its solid construction, air flow capability, and the dust filters.
I was then settled on the Rosewill THOR V2 because it seemed like a better Corsair 500r, plus it looked wicked, but after reading reviews it seems it lacks construction quality as well as it is reported to be a dust magnet.
So what I need is a case that can do the following, budget is $150, or a bit more if it's worth the money:
- Fit a Noctua NH-D14 Cooler
- Fit a GTX 780, with room for SLI 780s in the future
- Provide maximum airflow, water cooling capability isn't necessary, I won't be going that route any time soon.
- Dust filters are much preferred, but if you can convince me otherwise go right ahead.
I'm open to any options otherwise.
Aesthetic doesn't matter too much. Somewhat like the Noctua products, it can be ugly as long as it performs like a monster.
Thanks.
