If you go on PCpartpicker and select all the other parts it will give you a list of suitable cases which you can flick through to find something more your style

I might be experienced, but I'm human and I do make mistakes. Trust but Verify! I edit my messages after sending them alot, please refresh before posting your reply. Please try to be clear and specific, you'll get a better answer. Please remember to mark solutions once you have the information you need. Expand this signature for common PC building advice, a short bio and a list of my components.

 

Common build advice:

1) Buy the cheapest (well reviewed) motherboard that has the features you need. Paying more typically only gets you features you won’t use. 2) only get as much RAM as you need, getting more won’t (typically) make your PC faster. 3) While I recommend getting an NVMe drive, you don’t need to splurge for an expensive drive with DRam cache, DRamless drives are fine for gamers. 4) paying for looks is fine, just don’t break the bank. 5) Tower coolers are usually good enough, unless you go top tier Intel or plan on OCing. 6) OCing is a dead meme, you probably shouldn’t bother. 7) "Bottlenecks" rarely matter and "Future-proofing" is a myth. 8) AIOs don't noticeably improve performance past 240mm and don't improve at all past 360mm. 9) RTFM.

Bio:

He/Him - I'm a PhD student working in the fields of reinforcement learning and traffic control. PCs are one of my hobbies and I've built many PCs and performed upgrades on a few laptops (for myself, friends and family). My personal computers include 4 windows (10/11) machines and a TrueNAS server (and I'm looking to move to dual booting Linux Mint on my main machine in future). Aside from computers, I also dabble in modding/homebrew retro consoles, support Southampton FC, and enjoy Scuba Diving and Skiing.

Fun Facts

1) When I was 3 years old my favourite toy was a scientific calculator. 2) My father is a British Champion ploughman in the Vintage Hydraulic Class. 3) On Speedrun.com, I'm the world record holder for the Dream Bobsleigh event on Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games 2010.

 

My Favourite Games: World of Tanks, Runescape, Subnautica, Metroid (Fusion and Dread), Spyro: Year of the Dragon (Original and Reignited Trilogy), Crash Bash, Mario Kart Wii, Balatro

It also appears you might need extra mounting hardware for that cooler so you may want to look at alternatives.

I'm looking for a case that fits the following parts.1566055861_Screenshot_20230112-1919272.thumb.png.60ea7186272d08bfb3cec8c4ba0485c1.png

There is a case in this list however I do not like the style.

It would be great to also have intake and exhaust fans aswell as some cable management. 

Currency is in AUD.

Possibly tens of thousands of cases could fit these parts. Could you be more specific as to what youre looking for? Size, color, fan placement, rgb, etc.

Please mark as solved if I answered your question.

Hey, I have changed up my components a bit. I'm looking for something around medium tower and a fair amount of RGBs but not overkill amount, just enough to make it look clean. Preferably just black and somewhere between 2 - 4 intake fans and 1 - 2 exhaust fans. Also a decent amount of room for cable management, Cheers.

-

Also something on the side but will that liquid cooler be enough for the CPU.

-

I don't want to spend more then 150 AUD but am willing to consider.
