I have searched a lot but I really can't find an answer so I hope you awesome people can help me.
I am looking for a case with the highsest possible airflow (best cooling) for around $90-100.
I found some cases but very contradictory reviews or conclusions.
Can you suggest some good cases or point me in the right direction?

My parts:

Motherboard: AsRock 970 pro3 r2.0
CPU: AMD FX 6350 (planning to overclock)
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
GPU: MSI R9 280X (AMD) (Maybe planning to overclock)
RAM: Mushkin Redline 8GB
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB
SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 120 GB
PSU: Seasonic M12II 620W
Current Case: Aerocool V3X Evil Blue Edition
 
Solution
70c is cold for that card under full load. It is perfectly safe up to 85c. Changing your case will do nothing at all. That card is running perfectly normal and actually slightly cool.
This build DOES NOT need a full tower at all. Those are HUGE and meant for custom water loops and things like 3-way SLI.

A full tower is a huge waste for this build. Get a Coolermaster HAF 912 or 922. A MID tower is what you want.

There is nothing wrong with your case though. It can easily cool your parts without problems. If you have an overheating issue, it is NOT your case.

Thanks. Well it's not really overheating but after gaming my GPU will get around 70°C/158°F and my CPU will get around 50°C/122°F. So I can't overclock and I like to see some cooler temps anyway.

So any other case will keep my stuff at the same temperature?
