I want to buy a case which will easily fit ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 and a CPU cooler of CM Hyper 212x.
I have 2 choices and confused between them. And also cost of these is almost same... Tell me which is best ?
(CM K380)

I would go with Phanteks Enthoo Pro or Pro M if ya can lay ya hands on one over there.

As to the two selected, it would appear only one of them fits the bill. The 431 appears to serve ya better room wise since according to published dimensions, the 380 won't fit ya cooler

The 431
http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/elite-431/
VGA card length: 315mm / 12.4 inch
CPU cooler height: 163mm / 6.4 inch

The 380:

VGA card length: 316.6mm / 12.5 inch
CPU cooler height: 155mm / 6.1 inch

Heatsink Dimensions of the Hyper 212 X appear to kill the 380 option
116.00 x 51.00 x 158.00mm

Does the 380 one confirm that his cooler won't fit ? I've seen dimensional errors before, tho I still can't get newegg to remove the inflated rating on some Asus / MSI GFX cards. To my eyes, what it says on the sales page should be what ya see after you open the box and install it, not that ya can reach (possibly) after downloading an OC app from ther web site.

Thats what I concluded above (431 only option for the 212X) ..... I quoted CM web site in my post for both but still hoped to confirm by a 2nd source as its close.... I recall once we went down this road before where manufacture's own web site said no, but reviewer installed it. Since then, I sleep better if sum1 can confirm.

need help fellas.. Now I can't buy that CM 431plus case.. its cancelled by seller saying that the product was damaged. :/
and its either costly or cannot be deliver at my location if i buy from another website.
So I need to look for some other case.
Corsair Spec 03 is good ? will it able to fit CM Hyper 212x ?
