Hello everyone, in a previous thread I've started... it has been said that the case of my choice does not have sufficient cooling, much to my disappointment ---> http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/cases/2014/01/23/in-win-904-review/1. After searching threads for small, minimalist case designs, I'm unable to find something to my specification although I did quite like this ---> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112367&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=6146846&SID=1s1ib3mhcy53f as the case will be facing sideways, however it's unfortunately too big in terms of depth.
Can anyone recommend a case that fits the following criteria, I understand a case is personal and everyone's tastes are different but a few recommendations may be helpful.
An ATX case.
Must have excellent cooling abilities
if there are no side fans then it can be up to 11 inches in width
if there are side fans on the case panels then it can be up to or around 7 inches in width
Around 15 inches in depth
If there are no ceiling fans then it can be up to 25 inches in height
if there are ceiling/roof fans then it can be up to 19 inches in height
preferably of aluminium material although I may like steel if aluminium is not an option
Must have a large clear glass or transparent side panel in some form (so the components of my first ever build will be visible).
budget around £150 (that's approximately 250 us dollars)
to give you an indication of what temperatures the case may be facing... well the chassis will hold either a gtx 780 or r9 290 (vapour)... although I will now most likely choose a gtx 780 as to keep temperatures as low as possible.
Many thanks from myself as I would really appreciate your recommendations and time.
