Whats the best full tower case and psu for my configuration?

VFX Artist · May 30, 2016

My workstation configuration is -

Sabertooth 990FX R.2 MotherBoard
8150 fx Bulldozer Black Edition Processor
Noctua NH D15 Air Cooler
FirePro V5900 Graphic Card 2GB
4 x 4 Ram 16Gb DDR 3

I want a big full tower case for the above config that has proper airflow and removable dust filters.
And a good quality psu 700 watts. Lots of confusions. Kindly help me out.

My budget is 15,000 INR for case. I hope psu will come within 7,000 to 8,000.

Kindly do the needful. Thanks in advance.

for the case , phanteks enthoo pro. http://www.phanteks.com/enthoo-pro.html
I use it and it has so much space,2 removable dust filters, almost everything is removable and has lots of space behind for cable management.

For psu just pick one of the tier one http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

Thanks for the info.
It would be great if the case hase 2 dustfilters like front, top or bottom. I would like to clean the dust often.

slyverine · May 30, 2016

it has 2 at the bottom , one in the bottom front and one in the bottom back,like the whole bottom is dust filters. Now for the front part where the fan is and for the top part, the covers are easily removable. I clean it every 2 weeks and it is as good as new so far.

I'd argue you don't need to spend anywhere near that on a case.
The kendomen while primarily designed for gaming builds would suit you down to the ground,easily remove able filters, 5 preinstalled fans, plenty of room , great airflow.

& its very very cheap at the minute

ok. I have another doubt, phanteks enthoo pro case supports Noctua NH d15 air cooler???

Hi Madmatt,

What about the case quality?

madmatt30 · May 31, 2016

Kendomen is good all round quality HOWEVER I'm not 100% sure it will fit the dh15 .
Both the case & cooler state 165mm depth , I've had a 212 in the kendomen (160mm) & there was a good 15-20mm clearance so IMO it would fit but the specs say otherwise.

Case is not in my possession anymore as it was a customer build , or I would have checked for you.

The fractal design r5 would have been first choice but alas they have no product placement in India so I think you would have a very hard time finding one.

As you can see it has plenty of space still. The gpu depth is 11cm, your NH d15 depth is 16cm. It should fit.

wooooowww... Super cool setup. Great..

Thanks for the info.

For psu, shall I go for Antec HCP-750 Platinum 750W??

slyverine · May 31, 2016

is it on the tier 1 list? Because i can't see it... The corsair RM750 is also good as i can see on this site http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/corsair-rm750x-power-supply,review-33336-8.html

Also about the case, it has 4 dust filters, the top and front part are dust filters as well!

VFX Artist · May 31, 2016

slyverine :

ok.

we need to remove the front and the top panel to remove the dust, am I right?

Only the dust filters are at the bottom.

slyverine · May 31, 2016

yes ,but it's easy.

VFX Artist · May 31, 2016

slyverine :

ok.

I am from India - Tamil Nadu - Chennai.
Where can I buy this? I have searched in primeabgb and itdepottools too.
Product is not available in there.

slyverine · May 31, 2016

i can't help much with that, I don't know what eshops can deliver to you, but newegg from what i can see has it http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811854005&cm_re=phanteks_enthoo_pro-_-11-854-005-_-Product.
Also search if there is an amazon site to an area near you. Iam from greece and i bought it from a greek eshop.
