i have a 5600xt in the build tho

hmm, thanks for the heads up about the cases i mentioned. think based off of this i'm gonna go with the focus g or matrexx

this looks perfect, thanks for the tip with the gold psu. would you say it's wise to go under $100 for the case, just since i think with everything else i'm probably gonna be at least $100 over my original price? these are some i thought looked nice also if you know of any slightly cheaper monitors pls lmk https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/dgndnQ/thermaltake-versa-h18-microatx-mini-tower-case-ca-1j4-00s1wn-01 https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/KPw323/fractal-design-case-fdcacore1000usb3bl https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/wNrG3C/cooler-master-case-nse400kkn2
