Before I start building I need to grab a case, and I really don't want to get a bad one.

Currently I have been looking at the RL06 (http://silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=726) as it has 3 intake fans, a rear fan and space for 2 140mm fans at the top. It also comes with a fan hub aswell.

This would be beneficial to me as cooling is my main priority, But I have seen other cases such as the NZXT cases and the Phantek cases and Im honestly not sure what to go with

Any other case suggestions?

*I would like to spend around the £60-£80 range*

Just moved my old i7 870 Build into Fractal Focus G, didn't want to spend a lot on a backup machine, just waiting on the PSU to get here.

Old PSU is 7+ YO so it was time to replace it so I got a Seasonic G-550W to replace the Seasonic M12ii 620W.

Old case was over 12 YO and it just sucks by today's standards, great case back in the day though.

The Fractal Focus G is a nice case, got the mid tower and there is plenty of room for the price range.

You would be best served going for the NZXT S340(Elite/non-Elite version) or the Phanteks P400 or the Fractal Focus G/Meshify C. What sort of parts are you looking to populate in that chassis? Bundled parts aren't the best of things unless you're looking at the NZXT Hxxxi series of cases where they come with premium parts.

I was actually looking at those cases, but the P400 looks a bit limited to intake airflow to me, The Rl06 already comes with a fan hub and 4 fans pre-installed which was why I was interested in it (as it will save me some cash)

I will be putting an i7-6700k with a Corsair h55, I have a 1060 mini at the moment but I will upgrade that to a 1070/1080 at around Christmas time though
