Hello, I am considering upgrading my computer case and CPU cooler in the near future and wanted your thoughts on it. After my first case being just about as flashy a case as I could find at the time (I was 11), now I really want a more minimalist case look that is neater and more quiet (of course i am keeping a couple of LEDs to make it a bit exciting). As for the CPU cooler, I want to try overclocking and I definitely don't want to attempt it on the stock cooler. I am considering the Fractal Design Define R4 and the Hyper 212 Evo, I am pretty set on the cooler, but are there any other cases that have as good space, cable management, airflow, and silence as this one? If yes, please explain how it is better as well. By the way, I don't want to spend more than $100 on the case. Thanks.

Current Case: Raidmax Sagitta
Current Cooler: Stock Intel Cooler

you mentioned AIR FLOW
this one will not mess the wiring and air flow will be cool
your rig's heat would be maintained

but from what I have heard about the r4, the air flow is pretty top notch and wiring is great on it as well.

thanks for the input, but I think I will stay with the fractal just because it fits my criteria better.
