I'm building up a new PC and I'm debating on what case to get. the Corsair one is a mini tower and the NZXT is a mid tower and I'm not quite sure if I should watercool or use a fan for the CPU in the Corsair case, same goes to the NZXT.
What do you think? Is it necessary to up my budget towards a decent-ish watercooling setup for the cpu?

This is how I would approach it.

Air 540 =130 Plus a 280 water cooler at 140 = 270 + shipping, taxes
S340 = 70 plus a 280 water cooler at 140 = 210 + shipping and taxes.

The color options for the S340 are there over the one color for the A540. Cooling will be a little bit better in the Air540 case, due to it being design an Air flow case. However, that doesnt mean the S340 will not keep the temps low. Size wize the A540 is big compared to the S340.

In the end its all up to you and what you want to spend. If your trying to save to have a better cpu/gpu, go the S340 route.
