No problem also i'm not going for a color theme.

The cases I offered have plenty good airflow, and they are very very quiet. :3 I always recommend them for an ATX build.

 

Update: Strange 3: let me try this

 

There are other colors, just look up NZXT h440 :3 Some schemes are cheaper than others

 

 
Case: NZXT H440 (Matte Black) ATX Mid Tower Case  ($119.99 @ Amazon) 
Total: $119.99
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

The only one I saw at a glance, was an ultra-tower. It just seems.. Overkill. I have an Ultratower man, the NZXT 630, and I hate it. It sucks to move, sucks to apply thermal paste, ect. Medium/fullsized towers are just.. better. These cases look fuller with the same stuff in it, and you arnt sacrificing anything, at all. You still have more storage than you can ever use, it will fit ANY GPU/PSU, both can have epic watercooling, thermals are great, modular, and just.. Better. If you like, I can fetch review videos of the two cases for you :3

If you can That would be awesome on the videos. Also if i do want to Overclock my CPU from 3.5 to 4. should i change my CPU cooler or em i good? Last if i want to change my CPU later on in the future to a I7 would i be able to reuse my CPU cooler?

It will be fine for now, but consider going All-In-One watercooling to it if you wanna go any higher, because it rocks. If you do wanna change your CPU, your current cooler will fit it just fine, just keep your hands on all the hardware that comes with it :3 However, I think the cooler you chose may struggle with an i7 OC, as they are hotter by default. I am not TOO keen on OCing, so I'd make a thread in the appropriate Subforum for better, more direct help with that. :3

 

 

 

NZXT: Ignore the Thermal problems mentioned in the video, they recently made changes to the case to fix it, if you choose this one, contact NZXT through twitter or their website and ask for the new revision :3

That is a lot of video and info. Thanks and i will. Also if i do get a I7 i will most likely not overclock it. So thanks for all the help and i might ask you more questions later on if that is okay with you.

You'll do fine. :3 Just watch Linus's many Build Guides while you do it and you'll do awesome. WE EXPECT PHOTOS OF IT WHEN ITS DONE~

Hey i'm just checking on more case. I really like the NZXT H440 but the fans work more to bring in cool air and to exhaust it out. The design looks awesome just awesome. The R5 is also good the only thing is that the case doesn't look as good as the NZXT H440 but it does get the job done like the NZXT H440 and a lot more. Do you have any other case you recommend under $140? i don't really care if the fans are really quiet. If the make some nose i'm good. But if the sound like a jet then it will bother me.

NZXT H440 is as good as Define R5, I would recommend those two but my personal favorite is Define R5, you choose.

I know the Define R5 is better but it doesn't really pop out with any cooler. Do you have any other case you recommend? The case doesn't have to be a ninja or anything like it just quiet enough that I wont be able hear it a lot.

They fixed that issue with a new revision :3 So no worries there. Um.. Not really. xD Those are the two cases I tend to drift toward..
