So i was thinking of getting 5 new silent wings 3 pwm fans and rgb lightning, fans would cost me around 100 euros and rgb around from 10-50 euros + shipping (havent decided what to get for rgb), on the other hand i could get a new case with rgb, better fans and the looks, for the case im willing to spend around 200-250 max, if i get one, because i will still need 2 fans for my watercooler. What should i do? And which case should i get, if the answer is possitive? (A fancy one of course) My current case is RVX01 from Raven by Silverstone, its not bad, but smallish for my setup, i got 1080`s in sli and i7 5820k if i remember correctly.

You're better off prioritizing the case first, then fans, then whatever else cosmetic.

I know that was my main question, rgb is in the back, the main question was, should i change the case or leave the one i got right now and replace all the fans.

I'd replace the fans first then, noctua have excellent fans (if you can stand their colour scheme), be-quiet also have some good fans with low noise.

I will be replacing the fans one way or another, i asked whether i should change the case too, and in that case i would not need to change some of the fans (only for the watercooler), because the case would probably come with better fans as it would cost more.

personally I would just save the money for later on :) there's no difference if you upgrade the case or get RGB fans (and if there was, your temps will be lowered by 1-2c)

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

Am doing so, but the fans could be used in my next build anyway, and the main point is to make this system quieter.

determine what is making the most noise.

CPU cooler -> get better CPU fans or small downgrade to large aircooler

GPU -> screwed outta luck

I mean all 5 of those fans are making quiet a noise, when doing stuff that doesnt requier gpus (2 for radiator and 3 for case), i will just change those, its not much, 100 euros for all of them and they can be used later on, no?
