Hyper 212 evo.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

I3 4150, Intel HD graphics, corsair CX750M, 4gb ram, Asus H81M-E, corsair 230T, Intel stock cooler WD Green 2TB Gigabyte 550TI

How big is your case? If it does fit the obvious answer is the CM Hyper 212 Evo. Or anything from be quiet! if you can find a cheap one.
