So I'm building a PC and I've already bought my graphics card and pretty much chosen every other component(may change if I find a good deal on something).This is an overview of my system:
CPU :AMD FX-8350 Will probably liquid cool it after a month or so(Considering H80I and H100I by Corsair depending on the case and also the Seidon and Nepton series by CM.
GPU :Sapphire R9 280 Dual-X,might put another one on Crossfire later
Storage :1 HDD and will add 1 SSD later Probably going with a Barracuda or a Caviar Blue at 1TB.
RAM :8GB(2x4) Kingston HyperX Fury Red at 1866 MHz.Will probably add 2 more sticks when games require 16GBs but I think I'll be fine for now.
Mobo :Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
PSU :Corsair CS750M
So I'm pretty sure I will get a midi tower but a full tower wouldn't hurt since I have enough space but I haven't found any decent within that price point.So,since I listed my components above,you pretty much know what I need out of the case.I also want it to look pretty good on the front and not so much on the sides(so a window wouldn't be necessary) since my desk will hide both sides.Therefore,I would like it to have led fans in the front(red would be my favorite) or at least something like the Carbide 300R has.I'm looking at a few by Corsair:Carbide 200/300R and Graphite 230T,and Spec 01,02 and 03 with 230T being the coolest in the front but also the most expensive costing 80€ which is a bit out of budget.I also found CM K380 which is pretty cheap(40€ here) but can only hold up to 4x 120mm fans.Any help/recommendations appreciated!
