I'm after a new case, as my Coolmaster Centurion is getting a bit cramped.

Budget up to £70 preferably a bit less.

I have been doing the usual (google + youtube reviews etc)

The ones that seem to stand out to me so far are the following:

  • NZXT Source 340
  • Phanteks Eclipse P400
  • CoolerMaster Masterbox 5
  • Corsair Spec04
Just wondering if i am missing something else worth considering or what people prefer from the above.

I have a standard ATX Motherboard and a rather long GTX Graphics card 28CM Long. I would also ideally like to put either a decent heatsink on my 3570K or funds permitting might go down the Water AIO setup.

From what i have seen of the above the things i like (Coming from a very old school case) is the cable management (Behind motherboard) and mounting spots for SSD Drives (i have 1x 2.5" SSD and an MSata on the motherboard currently in use)

Cheers
 
if you can pick up a good inwin 303, i have one, they are cracking cases. the lesser 503 i used in a build is also good.

i loved my 303 as easy to build in, good cable management behind the mobo tray and you can hide a lot of things. the psu is top mounted as well. there are better air flow cases if your extreme overclocking and the bottom pcie slot for sli/xfire blocks the left 2 fan points which is annoying. overall, it looks the nuts in my eyes and the full side window is great. you can get it for £80 from another etailor too. i got mine form ocuk when they had it on offer. ask if they will match the £79.99 price and im sure they will.
