Hi everyone,

 

I upgraded my hardware not long ago but kept my old case (Antec Twelve Hundred old version with no front usb 3.0 etc...) and i need to get a bigger case to continue to modify my components.

I have a XL-ATX motherboard which is too big for a lot of cases. I am looking for a Full Tower.

I dont really have a fixed budget but under 200$ would really be a plus as everything is much more expensive for computer hardware here in Dubai.

 

Currently im looking at the Corsair 760T, i really like the look and the side panel but i wanted to see if u guys had something else to propose.

 

My current rig that i need to fit in is:

 

MSI XPower AC Z97 (XL-ATX)

i7-4790K

Corsair Vengence Pro 16Gb (2x8) 2400Mhz

Gigabyte Nvidia GTX970

1 Optical drive

2HDD 3.5" 

2SSD 2.5"

Cougar GX800 PSU

 

And i want to add a Corsair H100i cooler inside which will be front mounted if i go for the 760T case and i need space to go for a 2nd 970 (probably for xmas).

 

Any advice is really appriciated ! Thanks guys!
