thanks a bunch just wondering :D
 
This case has awful cablemanagement. The PSU is on top (OLD design) and will be organizing cables. It will look like a mess and can hurt cooling.

Get a better case. Look at NZXT, Coolermaster, Corsair, Antec for quality.

is there a specific chat we can join and talk about because im really hesitating this order i have a PSU that is mounted to
the ground and i dont think its a old model and has very good cable management in my PC but i have a CPU with built in graphics so that may be why my cable management is so good on my current pc

I don't think that build is that great. Raidmax cases are complete garbage, and that PSU is decent at best. Plus that motherboard is really old and probably won't work with that CPU very well. And that heat sink really isn't any better than the stock fan. What is the budget and primary use? I could suggest a better build if I knew that.
