Need help choosing case!

[William-Mathew]

Hi


I have now saved up some money to upgrade my case but I am struggling to find one. I am looking for a mid size case, to look cool and for it to be silent. My budget it £80 max.

Thanks for any suggestions

I have a stock cooler with a Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 Rev 5.0 Black Edition.
CPU= amd 6350
GPU= VTX 3d 280x 3gb
Corsair cx600 w psu
1tb sd HDD
Windows 8.1
8gb ram

So that is an mATX motherboard, yes?

If so, this would be my pick: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-083-AE

Compact, sexy, and quiet.

Fractal Design R4?

Wow the bitfinix ghost looks nice and it had lots of good reviews so I will properly pick one of those up. How do you copy your basket into the post?

Pick the Antec P100 - and as I'm amazing I can help you in the future with any needs/questions etc

I actually built in a P100 today, very easy to build in

 

[Idleman]

Still think the 330R is sexier.

@OP, just get what ever meets your requirements.

Dimensions (mm) 210 x 495 x 486 (W x D x H) for the 330R.

 

[Ace Modder]

The best case is certainly 'subjective', its not like a GPU where a raw benchmark can prove the best one.. for example we all know a Titan is the best GPU.

Cases are very much about form, function and design asthetics!

God forbid - some people even like Aerocool Strike cases lol

Ghost is quieter than the 330R, Anandtech noise tests show it to be a couple of dB less.

Well,you would really notice that whilst sat at your desk.

Get the Define R4.

Great features, great build, very quiet. All fan slots support 140mm fans out of the box.

Every bit helps and isnt every 3dB half as quiet again?
