Hey folks, I'm in the final stages of putting together my latest gaming build and I've run into a snag with availability on the case I was planning to purchase.
Would anyone have any recommendations for a case I should look at? I'm hunting function over form, so lights and other eye candy are supperfluous for my needs; as always the cheaper, the better.
For reference, I'm based in New Zealand.
Here's the build, including the old case that I can no longer get:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant
CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor ($309.00 @ PC Force)

Thermal Compound: Noctua NT-H1 3.5g Thermal Paste ($11.33 @ Ascent Technology)

P.S. The GPU wasn't listed on pcpartpicker, so here's the custom link: Link
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Cheers
