Well when I say high, its more mid-high, but its a high power (as in power consumption build). :)

Any of the above mentioned chassis wil do.

I prefer the Corsair 300R.

I would however STRONGLY suggest you pick a different motherboard and different PSU.
Neither of them should be used for such a higher performance gaming builds.

Aim for a Biostar TA970 motherboard, those are cheap and good.
Here is a list of PSUs teired by quality. Stick to tier 1, tier2a and tier2b.

Oh? Thank you, I had no idea this build was considered high. I thought it was somewhere around the mid budget section. Since I chose not to go with a FX-8350 along with a GTX 770.

Sorry, think I missunderstood.

Its hard to recommend chassis. What do you like?
What are your full system specs?


Well, I was going to go with:

CPU: FX-6350
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 Micro ATX
GPU: R9 280 MSI Gaming Edition
RAM: 8GB
PSU: Corsair Builder 600W 80+ Bronze
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM

That would be the general set up. And I was just curious on what options there were for mid ATX Towers, price ranges from $30-$60.
