I'm trying to finish off my budget build, and the only thing missing is the case.  This is the build.  I was looking at the rosewill fbm-01 but it doesn't look like it fits tall coolers well.  Any recommendations?

Cooler Master N200 is a good option, but right at the top of your budget.

How much did you add in the way of fans?

I'm going to be throwing in a non-reference R7950 so I want good airflow

Just bought a cheapo $5 one and tossed it in. I actually have a HIS 7950 in it, so if you've got a better one than that, you should be fine.

Don't cheap out on a case. Honestly you will pay for it long term with shitty thermals and no dust filtration.

Stretch your budget and get a s340. Its as much case as anyone will need and doesn't lack any functionality.

Yea don't cheap out on ur case like I did, I regret it so much
