NZXT:

H440

N450

 

Fractal Design:

Define R5

Define S

 

Corsair:

760T

900D (an elephant)

 

if you're just going to game, an i5 6600k is good enough

if you're going to stream your game, i7 6700k is plenty

the 6th gen processor should perform slightly better in games anyway

ty vry much !! nzxt n450 is the one that i would go with 

once again ty vry much!!

Preference? I guess Fractal or Phanteks would be your best bet in my opinion, cooler master and corsair are also good options...

you dont need 5820k if you're just going to game

A case with plenty of airflow and enough space for your graphics card and CPU cooler will be perfect for gaming. Make sure to have space for future upgrades you might have. 

Current PC: Origin Millennium- i7 5820K @4.0GHz | GTX 980Ti SLI | X99 Deluxe

I would say the Fractal Define S / Phanteks Enthoo Pro or Enthoo Evolv ATX, then again my opinion on the latter is skewed a bit =P but again its mostly about aesthetics and if you plan on water cooling

Strictly gaming.. an i5 6600k would be fine, unless you do tasks that greatly benefit from hyperthreading, then go i7

no problem,

if its not a hassle for you, u can post a new thread with asking opinions on your current build from our forum members, they will help you improve your system

you can state your goal with the pc, the resolution you're playing at, your budget, your current planned build in the form of pc part picker

and you can also state the parts you definitely want (like the 980ti and the n450 perhaps)

I have to H440 my self and it's really good but i think if you would be able to live with a bit ''uglier case'' i think it would be better.

to be true this is my first build and my budget is around 1500usd 

i have been following linus on youtube for a while now and after watching those videos i thought of using these components 

intel i7-5820k ( now as u said gaming will be fine on intel i5-6600...i'll use i5)

nvidia geforce gtx 980ti 

8x2=16 gigs kingston HyperX Fury Black Series 2133 MHz DDR4 ram

corsair h100i aio liq cooler

1tb hdd (no specific model decided yet)

512 gb ssd (no specific model decided yet)

corsair 1000w power supply 

i have decided abt the motherboard yet

You could put your computer in a cardboard box and it could be good for gaming. Your case doesn't really change your gaming experience, and pretty much every modern PC case will be built for decent airflow and standard components.

 

Better things to ask about a case: Is it quiet? Does it look the way you want it to? Is it big enough to fit everything you want to easily but not too big for the space you want it to go in? Does it fit your mobility needs or will you build it and then never move it? Is it made to be compatible with the parts you want to put in it? Does it make the actual PC building and maintenance part easier?
