Hello eveyone, 

 

Long and short is, I have a Z77 M-power, Noctua fans and a H100. What case would YOU recommend?

 

Windowed would be better. 

 

Thank you! :)

It's kind of hard to recommend a case, especially with the little details you've given us. It's a very personal choice.

 

What's your budget? 

Do you have a color scheme?

What size do you prefer?

Are you planning water cooling in the future?

Do you require a certain amount of hardrive/5.25" bays?

My mistake guys, my system is the one in my signature under "main rig"

 

  • Intel Core i7 3770k 
  • M-power
  • G-skill Ripjaws x 16gb
  • xfx 6950
  • Coolermaster GX750
  • Crucial M4 120gb
  • Single ODD drive
  • Single HDD for storage

 

 

 

 

As for budget, a little over 200$ would be my ceiling, of course, it's better if it is cheaper. 

 

Thanks guys!

Colour scheme would probably something that will incorporate the colour the noctuas and the bright yellow in the mpower

 

Also, I do have plans on doing proper water cooling in the future.

Fractal design Define R4 if you want silence or Arc midi R2 if you want more airflow.
