Hi OCUK,

planning a new build to buy with these specs :

XFX 750W Supercore PSU
Asus P8P67 Pro
Nvidia EVGA GTX570 1280MB
Intel I5 2500K
Corsair H60 Watercooled CPU cooler
1TB 64Mb Cache HDD
8GB 1600MHZ Vengeance Ram
Samsung optical drive

I'm choosing a basic CIT 1009B ATX Case to save myself money and stick to my budget, does it matter if there is only the gfx card fan, psu fan and water cooler for the cpu ? or do I need to buy a more expensive case with 120mm fans in ?

The H60 includes a square fan mount which will be fitted at the rear end of the case.

Regards

the H60 won't fit in that case, you need one with a 120mm rear fan

I understand now, I need a proper gaming case, I see this one is small and poor for my components, thanks for your input

Try a Coolermaster elite430.

nice demonstration that, might go for that case although I'm quite taken by the Corsair 600T, looks very stylish,compact and roomy too

but if I wish to save money then this looks very good

Don't make cuts backs on your case as it will hinder your full rig set up - both in looks and performance ... also won't help if you choose you want to sell it on at a later date as it will give the appearance of it being a cheaper pc than it actually is.

I've looked at that case and it looks like it can fit large gfx cards, and it is cheaper too, will probably go for that or the Corsair 600T

rikky - > I see what you mean it does put back the " appearance " of the case in fact.

seandog -> nope, just like the 27" tv being sold on ocuk at the moment hehe
