Hi, I opened a thread a while ago asking about these two things but the case i agreed to buy turned out to be out of my budget because i bought other components which ruined my budget. As for the water cooling info, no one really answered that part because i needed a good case at first. So now my story is i have this really crappy logisys case that i bought of amazon for $30 and it literally has like one or two spots to take out air and exactly one fan. On top of that looks bad. I am looking for a case that looks stylish has good air flow and is under $100. I would like a window preferably. I don't really mean a case worth like $99 because that is still a bit high for me. A good price for me right now is around $75 or less but if that is too low then i will consider the cases you suggest above that price as well. I have looked at cases but i don't really want their looks to deceive me because i also worry about specs which is why I'm asking the pros I can't really ask for you to help me without giving my specs so they will be at the bottom.
As for the water cooling, Should i go for it? I'm not the best with computers. All i really know is the parts and how to disassemble and assemble etc. If i should go for it then please recommend a good cheap water cooling parts to buy and a video teaching me about water cooling and how to set it up. If you don't recommend it for me then what is a good air cooling method. Right now i have a stock cooler for my i7 and just one case fan that i plan on not salvaging.
