you could go with the nzxt phantom tower case. mid tower and only $100 so well within your budget. you can attatch led fans with the money you saved form your budget. i believe it should have no problem fitting your mobo, but i would make sure. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

finally you can go with this one from thermaltake. You can use the money saved to get some really high end fans with leds. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

yeah, the cm storm is a really good lan case especially because of its strenght in the handle, it makes it much easier and safer to carry despite the mid tower size, and it great front on the thermaltake allows for a wind tunnel airflow with all three fans in the front of the case being used. I am glad i could provide advice, there are other fantastic thermaltake cases that look awesome, i will try to find them for you

but i need it to be confirmed that my specifications above ^ will all fit into this case?

it will all fit but the ram is too high voltage. i would go with another kind of ram. here is your build http://pcpartpicker.com/p/hDPh23
this is the ram i would get. it is an excellent ram set. it is more expensive but you get quality for what you pay for http://pcpartpicker.com/p/X2XdMp
you did not mention an aftermarket heatsink, so i would not know about that.

the gtx card is apparently 267 mm and the case can fit 320mm http://www.techpowerup.com/gpudb/2621/geforce-gtx-980.h...
ignore my first edit to the build, go with this ram set http://pcpartpicker.com/p/X2XdMp

I built a similar system just a couple weeks ago and I decided to try the Coolermaster HAF XB EVO case. It's a bit of a departure from the standard mid or full tower case, it's more like a cube, but I have to tell you it was a pleasure to work with, and it's a very nice case. Check it out.
Not too big or expensive. my budget for a case I guess is around £110.. would be awesome if someone can recommend some for me please.

just make sure the voltage not too high for your build! i would not want to see your new system get messed up. i would go with the 1866 mhz in the lower link to be safe. it will still perform very well. please remember to pick best solution if you have the time.Me too dude,
is this one okay then
http://www.amazon.co.uk/G-Skill-Arbeitspeicher-1600MHz-...
?? or
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007GWMR6U/?tag=pcpapi-20
