Hi,
Looks like your building a well thought out system and i like the case a lot myself while being a big fan of cooler masters Hyper D92 , i think it will provide low temps with very little sound while not having to worry about dependability, also it helps not just cool CPU but all the other components in the case with the dual fans leading to overall a cooler running system that will last longer.

Lets us know how thanks work out and good luck!

Thank you so much for the info.
Does this cooler suits my board and cabinet? Please suggest me a good tower case for the better airflow.

If money is no object Lian Li makes beautiful cases. Aluminum so they are light, and they use scratch resistant tempered glass windows.

If you don't want to spend $400 on a case, then Fractal Designs have been making some of the nicest ones lately.

The Define R5 is a silent model and nice. The Define S is the same case minus the drive cages to make room for liquid cooling. This means the same quality as the R5 at half the price. But you can't install a CD-ROM and only 2 hard drives behind the motherboard tray.

The Define S is the popular choice for it's supreme liquid cooling options, price, and the fact that people don't install CD-ROMs or many hard drives any more. One SSD and 1 large storage drive is it. And an external cd-rom for the odd install.

As Far as air coolers go, Noctua is the best. The D15. It's big, great, and pricey. Next step down is the Cryorig H7. And another step down is the Coolermaster Evo 212 that doesn't cool as well as the Cryorig and is a bit cheaper. Between these 3 you have every budget covered.

A step up is when you get into liquid cooling.

Some additional cases are:

- There is a Corsair case that has the window on the right instead of the left. This flips your video card the other way around so the heatsink faces up instead of down and looks nicer. The downfall is the cd-rom and power supply are installed together in a compartment and cabling gets tight.

- There is also the Corsair 540 Cube case. They are twice as wide but short, and the power supply gets installed behind the motherboard tray and is hidden. So when you look through the window you don't see a mess of cables. Being a short case it fits under shelves.

- If you want big, then the Corsair Obsidean 900 is king.

I wouldn't worry about cooling on any of these cases. My personal preference is the Define S with liquid cooler, or the Define R5 with a cd-rom and many hard drives. If I was rich I'd consider a Lian Li with tempered glass.
