Im in the market for a new case, at the moment I have an akasa eclipse64.

Starting to get a bit cramped inside, so I need a new case around the £80 with good air flow
Also needs to fit a thermalright silver arrow.

4670k with the above cooler
R280x
1 x ssd
1 x 3.5hdd
Dvd drive

Psu is modular

Cheers craig.

Corsair 400R, OK its £90 but i have one and its a great case. Fits my Phantek PH-TC14PE cooler fine.

The silver Arrow is 160mm tall, the Ronin with a max cooler size of 167mm so you should be ok.

YOUR BASKET
1 x BitFenix

Ronin Tower Case - Black £69.95
Total : £79.55 (includes shipping : £8.00).

Another option, again your good for CPU cooler size is the 230t. A rather underated case, and I have yet to know why.

Again clear for a 160mm cooler.

If you can get one for around £80 then another great option, love the look of the define r4 black peal.

Just keep in mind, OCUK don't stock any of the fractal cases so you'll have to look else where sadly. Quality control issues apparently however I believe that was over a year ago.

A lot to think about

Just measured the eclipse and its 245mm wide have about 10mm clearance from the top of the silver arrow.

Hmmm
