So with the Saddening News I received today-

"We apologize for the inconvenience. There has been an uncontrollable delay with the delivery of our Enthoo Evolv ATX case. The revised ship date is now August 17. Once again we apologize for the inconvenience, and if you need to cancel your preorder let us know and we will process a refund right away."

 

 

I am deciding to buy a case for less than $50 so I can actually use my new computer in the next week, rather than waiting till late August. 

Now I need help picking a decent, cheap one which can fit

-ATX Board

-980ti Hybrid

-possibly X61 Kraken CPU cooler, or could just use the stock heat sink & fan for now. 

 

Will possibly use it later, or sell it on Craigslist once through.
