Case around £80

Hi Guys

Looking for a new case to replace my 5 year old antec.

Budget of around £80.

Good airflow, not worried about anything flashy (lights etc)

To house a e6600, (with a new heatsink expect to be big) full atx motherboard, 8800gtx.

thermaltake 750 watt PSU.

Any recomendations?

I was looking at this.

XClio A380Plus Twin Engine Gaming Case

Im just worried it will be to big thought.

Thanks

Tried looking at an Antec P182? Decent cases, and provide pretty good airflow. Should be around the £80 mark too.

Not too flashy either.

There's a contradiction.

An Antec or Lian-Li will provide good cooling with minimal noise, especially if they've got a couple of decent 120mm fans. My P160 always gave me low temps.

Coolermaster CM690.

Cheap. Excellent Air flow. Quiet. Well designed.

hmm quite like the look of the coolermaster, would that fit the big Tunic heatsink?

It fitted a Themalright Ultra while I had one perfect, so I can't see an issue with a tuniq tower. Fitting a heatsink like this does disable a side panel fan.
