Case recommendation for first build.;3

[Errenar]

hi all need a little help in choosing my first ever case for my first ever rig.:))

Budget : Im in the PH roughly conversion from peso to $ around $80-120

Limited Brands : Silverstone, Inwin

Brands not in our country : Rosewill

All other brands are readily available.:)

Rig for reference :

i5-6600K

Asus Z170 Pro Gaming

Sapphire R9 390 Tri-X OC

Gskill Ripjaws V 8gb dual (2x4gb) DDR4 2400  

Samsung 850 Evo 250gb

1tb 7200rpm (Seagate or Western Digital Blue Cav)

Asus 24x Sata (OEM)

S12II 80+ Bronze 620W

ID-Cooling Frostflow 240L - 240mm Liquid AIO

I was looking into Phanteks cases (Luxe, Pro, and Pro M) i can push a bit for the luxe, my concern on the Pro M is that i have to buy multiple fans since it only has 1.:)), ah and the case must at least have one 5.25" drive bay.:)

Thanks!:)

Be like Luke, use them wood. I mean you can always go for Corsair SPEC-03

Fractal design r4 does.  It's inside the front cover.  There's like a cool door system thing.

was just about to ask about the r5 lol.:))

[jpow007]

yeah the R5 is nice but i prefer the S. Its what I have. I think the S is just more practical because 5.25 inch bays are useless and the storage mounts on the back plus its 30 dollars cheaper and its the same fractal build quality which is always top of the line

[Errenar]

sadly we have a lot of CD's lying around that i need for work etc so a drive cage is a must for me right now, unless i could find everything online and download it then maybe the Define S would do, big question for both though, since it's particularly very dusty in our place im skeptical about the top of the cases having no dust filters at all, and i plan to mount my radiators up there and set up intake fans on the front.

 

Thoughts on the Enthoo Pro or Pro M?:)

You can now buy a filter for the top of the R5

their about $20 dollars I just wish Fractal was smarter as this is the only complaint you ever hear about there cases.

[Errenar]

Oh my they have a separate dust filter, I hope it's available in our country, thanks for that heads up!:)
