Hi everyone just wanted to get some ideas on any case you guys would recommend that can fit a h90 liquid cooler for a new build and a gtx 1070 from msi i have 3 blue led corsair 120 mm fans and 3 red ones as well so im trying to dcide, i think i will incline more to a red amd build with the new zen to feature the red msi coolors as well with a motherboard but im open to ideas thanks in advance for your help. Oh also the reason im wanting to do a sort of new rig is because my i5 4460 seems to choak in Tom clancy the division with cpu usage of 110% tried different settings but i can play on ultra with 94% usage cpu and 97% gpu but if theres alot of pvp going on in the dark zone it tends to give me a loading screen and by the time i can react or the sceene is loaded im dead so, also my cousin has a i5 4440 which is suppsoed to not be as good as the 4460 but he has a gtx 980 idk i know, i thought video cards did all the work in video games but i guess not to many things happening on my screen. oh 1 more thing i was also thinking that a i7 4790k will solve my problems but not sure yet plp say i should go for a new skylake rig but i guess its just those guys a best buy that work for intel trying to sell me cpu but idk help pls guys thanks in advance
