I need a new case for my to be built rig, it needs to be big enough to hold a ATX motherboard, long graphics cards (at least 300mm clearance),fit some fans on the top, bottom, front and the sides.

 

Any ideas? i dont have the biggest budget for a case under $200 would be nice but you can go over if you want

Neither the Enthoo Pro or Luxe have side fan options. However, unless you really know what you're doing, side fans are pretty much useless, meaning it won't make a difference in your overall temps... maybe help your GPU but not surely.
