I have recently saved up enough for my first gaming pc build which is
Cpu: i5 4690
Gpu: MSI 970
Mobo: ASRock Fata1ity z97x
Cpu cooler: 212 Evo
Psu: corsair 600w +bronze

All I need is a case, I'm mainly looking for great cooling (front fans wanted) and comes with all around dust filters I can go up to £100/$149 but that is the max and I probably don't need it since I don't need advanced storage features. Finally I want it to be a mid tower.

That looks really good but i want front fans with no panel to increase airflow (don't care about silence) i think i might go for the corsair 450d it seems to be the perfect mid tower for me. What do you think?

My budget is pretty flexible I can spend £100 which for a great case i'll do (not going over though) to ensure my components keep cool and have longer life span. I don't care about aesthetics and colour but want a mid tower that fits a hyper 212 (not bothered with size as long as fits 212 EVO) with front case fans and dust filters.

I think I found it do you mean the phantom 410 because that is a great case for my build (only downside is no dust filters but I can get them easily)

no offence but why are you spending so much for a case? you don't even overclock. you don't need that much airflow. i would suggest corsair 200r. it has a lot lot of fan mounting spots (2 front, 2 top, 1 rear, 1 bot). you can create very good airflow in this case and it will cost 1/3 of the 450D.think about it. even i use this case (200r) and i overclock (both cpu and gpu) which means i produce more heat. in my opinion you are wasting your money...

I forgot to add the K on my CPU im gonna get the overclocked version so in the future i can overclock i also want to keep the case future proof so i can upgrade components like adding a gpu in SLI if i feel like it which will benefit the extra airflow also in the UK the 200r is 2/3 the price of the 450d (as of this post) it also doesn't come with dust filter and that would cost an extra £40 in the UK making it more expensive and the area i would put the pc in is filled is 50% dust so i might aswell stick with 450d
