I've been looking to build a new PC and I want to move to m-ATX, so I'm looking for people that are currently on that form factor to help me find the best case for my PC.

The specs of the upcoming PC are

CPU Cooler-Haven't decided 

MOBO-MSI Z97M Gaming

RAM-Kingston Fury 8gb

Storage-Samsung 850 EVO 250gb

GPU-MSI 970

PSU-Seasonic M12II 620

MISC.-Avermedia Live Gamer HD

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/fractal-design-case-fdcadefminiblOr sound dampening, but this one has limited space inside.

honestly what matters most is the parts. I have a noctua cooler with noctua fans, on a sabertooth mobo. my fans never need to go over 15%. your case may be diffrent, because I only have a 750ti, so it makes almost no heat. but Im also only on 80mm fans

Thanks those are definitely good options, I tend to like the look of the fractal design case, I was looking at the Arc Mini R2.
