Right now I'm deciding to either get a new case or new power supply. Everything else is perfectly fine in my rig. My case's airflow is terrible and and my PSU is a cheap Chinese model. I don't know which one would best help me out right now. Just as an FYI my PSU can power everything easily right now.

If your PSU was getting a lot of stress, I would day upgrade it, but bad airflow can be a worse problem, so I say a new case.

Actually what brand PSU is it? And of course one with good airflow, no use getting a poor one :p

I should recommend a new psu, but I've been running a highly questionable brand PSU (top of the range model though) for 4 years.

Anyway, if airflow is the problem, the case needs to be replaced.

Sorry that I didn't word this correctly, what I mean't to say was do you know any good airflow cases that I could maybe get?

My cable management isn't the best because my PSU is non-modular
