What sort of case should I get to hold all this?
I have already picked a case, but I haven't enough experience with cases to just pick one out from my own judgment, especially when it is going to hold very high-end equipment. So the one I picked was the "Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case", so what do you think from looking at this build?

What would you use if this was your build? Any recommendations, or this case good enough?

There are many great cases out there, you just need to look. This part is supposed to be fun, not frustrating, so do not over think it. Choose a case which is a good size, fits in your price range, and looks great.

I heard about a company called Lian Li, how good are they?


Lian Li s a Taiwanese computer case and accessories manufacturer.
The company is one of the largest manufacturers of aluminium computer cases in Taiwan and is also a major world competitor in the upmarket aftermarket computer case industry

pulled that straight from a quick google search, I've seen a few case reviews of the company, I dont really think for full tower cases they have anything very aesthetically pleasing but the case design seems solid.

but I checked pcpartpicker for Lian Li cases that are compatible with your hardware and sadly they seem to be in the 300-500$ range only

Yeah, that is kinda why I decided to ignore them when I realized which ones supported my system, haha.

I have never heard of this company before, but after looking on their website, I really do not see anything special there. I do not know the quality of their products, but I recommend going with a well-known company as more people have bought and there are more reviews of cases. Here is the NZXT website if you want to explore :www.nzxt.com

Try looking at these cases, they support all of your hardware, can fit your rad, and look extemely sleek and sexy.
If windowed sidepanels are your thing I think there is another version with one.
[EDIT] they do sell sidepanels for the case http://www.nzxt.com/product/detail/100-phantom-window-p...


I was just about to show him that! Yes, I have a NZXT Phantom 410, which is great. The Phantom is a bigger and better version of it, and looks real nice as well.

The case is a personal choice, that the builder chooses. The only requirement is that it should be able to fit all the components, which it does as it is a full tower. As long as it is good for you, then it is good.

Yeah but I don't know if this is the one I want yet, I just thought it would be nice for some ideas from others so that I can look it up myself. Not experienced with Cases yet. Like, is the 750D look nice and it looks like it doesn't have that great of LED potential.
