This build will be used for gaming only; I don't plan on rendering or video editing on this PC. I will be playing this on a 1080p monitor (60Hz). I'm looking for 60fps in new games, medium settings is the lowest I'm willing to go. I plan to buy this build for about $600, but I'll have to wait on sales for several parts if I want to achieve that. The z97 motherboard is in preparation of upgrading to an unlocked intel cpu later on. The parts are coming from the US. My question is: what case should I get for this build? I would prefer if it had all the fans it needs for proper ventilation built in and I definitely want dust filters. I don't care about noise, looks, and cable management. The current case on the list is the best I could find thus far.

I don't see the point in going to an unlocked cpu from this.Either stay with this or buy an unlocked one right away.

Of course (coudn't resist) changed some stuff,

The case in this has basic dustfilters,removable is a different story,,but read some reviews.It comes with three fans installed,two 120mm at the front,one at the back.
Other good psu's for a good price,

this cooler master is a good choice,but not all are happy with the name so other choices for you.
Tried to get to that $600 already as close as possible with good parts.The gpu doesn't support DX 12 so if you want that get the next,

i don't see the point in having 4gb's of vram for 1080p.The R9 280 i chose has 3gb's btw.Compare them in some reviews.
