Hello,
I have recently bought an asus Z87 PRO, i5 4670k and a Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo. They were going into my current case but I have now decided I would like a new one. This is my first build and I'm not sure if I need a full size or mid size case. I am aware the cooler is large and the chip can run very hot, so I need the case depth and good airflow. I may consider liquid cooling in the future but am happy with air cooling at the moment.
I have a budget of around £150 tops, though I would rather not spend as much as that, I realise this may be a bit of an ask but I don't need one that looks like a transformer or sings and dances with lights, a simple plain case is fine with me.
Anyone got any ideas? Please...
 
Solution

Do you have a graphics card that you're not mentioning?
