My current pc is in an old jeantech 'phong' case whilst it keeps my current hardware oc'd quite cool I am looking at a whole new build but will have to buy the bits piecemeal so I am going to start with case.

It needs to be as quiet as possile
I am thinking of going mATX route, not sure yet as I need find out If you OC them as much
I have 600w seasonic Psu and x1800xt ( replacing that with the GF9 upon arrival.


ideas on case, quiet + good cooling (possibly small for mATX)


cheers guys, oh and keep it under a £100 please :)
 
imo id avoid matx unless you really need it due to size/space restriction

lian li pc 7
akasa mirage/eclipse
 
thinking of mTAX soley because I'm thinking of getting case off the floor, as at the moment I have have wooden floors+case on floor = loads of dust!


but matx not as good at overclocking?
 
intall some akasa fan filters and put ya pc on your desk

theres a cople of reasonable clocking matx boards but i dont know if youll get one near as good as a ds3 or 680i

also options are limited on matx like sli/sata and pci slots
