Hello community!

 

A friend of mine wants to build a PC(i`ll probably do the building tho, hehe) and I`ve laid down all the parts and would like to ask an opinion on the case, what should he get? We would need a good air cooling mid tower case(price is not the problem, he says)... and also if you are at it, might as well suggest a nice aftermarket CPU cooler, thank you!

 

Thanks so much!

Define r5,r4. H440 if you don't need a drive bay. And s340 if you are going for as compact mid tower as possible without a drive bay.

Asks for mid-tower. Everybody suggests full towers. Here's a good MID tower, Fractal Design Midi R2.

There are plenty of great options including the S340, H440 Arc Midi R2, N600, or Silent Base 800.

@WoodenMarker Thank you for all the suggestions, I think we will go with Midi R2, it seems very spacious.

It is and it might as well be a full tower.
