Hello everyone.

I am currently planning my new PC (will be my second build), and have fallen into the possession of the nocturner NH-D14 cooler. It is quite simply enormous.

Will I require a full size tower case, or will a largish mid tower be fine? If so, does anyone have any (cheapish) recommendations?

Full proposed system specs;

PSU Corsair 650W
Motherboard Gigabite GA-z77-D3H 1155
CPU Intel i5 3570k 3.4GHz
GPU nVidia 560ti 448 (palit)
RAM Corsair 8gb ddr3 vengeance (the one without the fins - the cooler gets in the way apparently)
Hard drive WD 1TB Caviar Black 7200 rpm
CD drive Samsung SH-222BB DVD drive
CPU fan Noctua Nh-D14

Thanks very much.
