Help finding case

Go to solution Solved by Vague,

i would recommend the xigmatek talon

Just bought the Arc Midi R2. Thanks anyway.

So i am just about to order my new PC parts but i am finding it hard to choose a case. I would like it to be windowed and good room for watercooling. The cases i have looked at so far, Corsair 540 and Fractal Design Arc midi R2. I would get the NZXT H440 if it had a drive bay "for Movie lol" . Budget is around £130.

If you want good room for watercooling, the Air 540 is a lot larger than the R2. You'll have a cramped look in the R2, while the 540 offers a lot more freedom.

 

Personally, I would say you should look at something like a 350D if you want mATX like the R2.

I like the looks of the 350D but i would rather go ATX but if i don't find a case i like for ATX i will just go mATX and get the 350D.
