I want to buy a case (BitFenix Neos) but I am concerned that the case might be too small. Could you tell me if this case is big enough for my components, and if there are any problems with it
(i.e. bad cable management etc..)? Also, are there any other compatibility issues with my build (i.e. motherboard not good enough, USB 3.0 ports)? Thanks.

Everything will fit, however the Neos is low quality. Overall the quality of this build in my opinion is not good.

For example, you shouldn't OC. Mobo not good enough for that but the Freezer 7 Pro would keep it at ok-ish temps at stock speed. I wouldn't rule out throttling though which could remain a permanent issue in this system.

Plus, the CPU cooler. Not the best. Intel i5-4460 build recommended for this budget.
