Open for Case Suggestion and Need Comments on PSU

Silvio

Hey all
As I have stated in the title I am open for case suggestions, I have narrowed down the options to 4, but i am also open for another suggestions.

1 - https://pcpartpicker.com/product/ycbCmG/corsair-275r-airflow-atx-mid-tower-case-cc-9011182-ww

2 - https://pcpartpicker.com/product/K6848d/corsair-icue-465x-rgb-atx-mid-tower-case-cc-9011188-ww

3 - https://pcpartpicker.com/product/G766Mp/cooler-master-mastercase-h500-atx-mid-tower-case-mcm-h500-ignn-s00

4 - https://pcpartpicker.com/product/v622FT/cooler-master-masterbox-td500-atx-mid-tower-case-mcb-d500d-kann-s00

I care about temperature as much as the looks. That is why I have mesh and non-mesh ones. Could you please help me to choose one?

Out of those I'd probably go for the 275R Airflow, though I'd also suggest looking for the be quiet! Pure Base 500DX, Phanteks P300A, P400A and Fractal Meshify C. The P300A and Meshify C though will need some extra fans to get the most out of them.

 

Those components in the bottom are what you've already got, I assume?

budget for a case? the 275r airflow is good, and so is the td500 mesh. but all of these have decent airflow, the h500 does come with 180mm fans and is also good.

 meshify c, p400a, lan cool 2 mesh, 500dx are also decent.

Could you stretch the budget any further?

 

Thinking about temperature and noise, could you afford to add a Hyper 212 evo in to keep that 3600 nice and cool?

Yes these are the parts I have bought already (most of them are from discounts). A friend of mine stated P400A is very similar to 465x and has very decent airflow. 

As for your suggestion, I am not sure if its airflow is good enough. Do you think it is good enough for my system. I will not be able to add extra fans for a while.

Budget is actually flexible that is why I havent specified it . Also, 275r looks decent but I am worried about the airflow that is why I have also added mesh ones. What do you think?

Oh yes I can stretch it. So you are saying I could buy the one looks cool to me then add a Hyper 212 and stop worrying about the temperature right?

The 275R Airflow is quite a good performer for airflow, and it's also very competitively priced considering it comes with three included fans. I think it'll work nicely with your components.

275r airflow is decent for airflow. and is reasonably priced. should be more then fine for this build.

@owencrispy , @TofuHaroto , @Mateyyy

Thanks folks! I bought the 275r airflow :) However, I am concerned about the PSU right now since it is very cheap for the rig. Do you have any opinions on that? What could be the harm of using it with this setup.

The CV650 is okay (it's on a totally different platform as opposed to the CV450/550), but if you want an upgrade I'd look at an RM550x or Straight Power 11.

it's okay, it's not the same as the cv550/450 and is on a platform and isn't a group reg.

^, to add to these, the bit fenix forumla gold, tx550m, MWE gold 550w, AMP 550w, and the ion+ 560w are good.

Yes. This would be a nice upgrade from the stock cooler. I find those stock coolers kinda loud really, but do the job in a pinch.

 

Keep that 3600 frosty, get the 212
