Here is my parts list,

 

i7 4770k

H100i

GTX 780 DCU2

maximus 6 hero

xonar essence stx

AX 860

Vengeace Pro ram

840 256 pro

1x WD black

1x WD greed

 

Here are my top picks for now,

Corsair 600t white window

Fractal design define R4 windowed

Corsair 650d

I'd really love to stay under $200 for the case.

 

Things I want from my case

Fit the H100i on the TOP mount in PULL configuration.

2x 140 or 120 intake in the front (doesn't have to come with the case, I want to put Corsair AF fans there)

bottom intake would be a nice extra

 

MUST be windowed without any side intakes.

Gawd not the 600T, the most horrible case in history of cases.

Just go for the 650D or maybe Fractal Design Define XL R2 ?

Please explain why the 600t is so terrible

Not a big fan of my 600T IMO.. looks frigging wierd cable management is meh.. the big 220 fan in the front is annoying you have to take it out or put a low noise on it.

You know, I was maybe saying that it's the most awful case out there, it's not of course, but just the shape, and the looks of it, come on, who wants to still buy this now.

(You might have one yourself, not judging, just giving my opinion mate.)
