I was thinking of making a compact gaming system the specs are and i5 4690, 8gb of ram, gtx 970 and a ssd and a hdd i'm kinda on the fence on what to do because i was thinking of using the corsair 250d. But my worry is if i leave it on that it would get to hot like if i left it on for say 8 or so hours and if i were to go with a bid case say a matx what would be some good ones.

The video card is yet to be chosen and purchased, probably a GTX970. It will fit. Even GTX980 will fit. My power supply is a bit small for that, but I'm not planning to be using the card a full power very often.
Reviews say the case will be cool and I can always add more fans or an aftermarket CPU cooler.
There are quite a few cases that would work, but I don't know about the Corsair.
