Im looking on replacing my Cooler Master Storm Enforcer in the next few weeks im just wondering what cases people recommend for the following build.

i5 3570k , GTX 670 Windforce 3X , z77x ud3h , 16gb Corsair Vengeance

Can spend up to around 250-300 on one if its going to be worth it :P
 
With a budget that huge it's no wonder you can't decide, i'm replacing a case soon myself but only setting aside £40 - £60/70 (it's an older system that just needs quietening down) and i've been researching for a few weeks already.

Best of luck in making your decision.
 
What cooling do you have? or what are you aiming for?

Do you want airflow or silence?

Do you want it minimal?

Window or No Window? :)
 
i have a corsair h60 atm but probably going to replace it for a h80i around the same time i buy the case , i just want something big good cable management and would rather have a window :p
Was thinking about proper water cooling but i wouldn't trust my self to fitting it :p

You could get the 600T and put a H100(i) in the roof.

The 600T is a lovely case, so is the 650D :)

The 600T is a great case. I love the side panel. No screws, but latches that was a big selling point for me. I hate side panel screws. While I do live the case I need to change. I Di this every year. Some times twice a year. The phantom 820 is the ultimate case,but the only downside is those damn side panel screws:(

Also I couldn't fit a H100i because my Mobo's heat-sink is way to big and it wouldn't fit. I tried my friends H00i.

Still haven't decided :( thinking of either a 800D/900D or a FT02 with white sleeved cables and a h100i , i like the idea of my mobo facing upwards because i hate the sight of seeing the graphics card PCB but also like the idea of a 2 tier case :p

i have an in-win Grone case in white. it's massive, great silent fans that come with it and could fit anything you throw at it. good cable management too.
 
I have a phantom full tower. I just love it. Unfortunately it doesn't have a window but has everything else. Fan control, great air circulation, water cooling facilities, excellent cable management, mostly tooless etc, etc, in fact apart from a window it has everything a person could desire.
 
Think the 600T as others have stated will be a great option, you'll achieve a really clean build with the cable management along with stunning looks.

Few options when it comes to the 600T as it comes in either Black, White and Silver.

Personally I would either go for the white or silver in terms of looks as this isn't the type of case you would hide away. It just looks too damn nice. I know the white is a popular choice looking at the build logs section.

* As an after market idea you can also pick up a fully clear perspex side panel for the 600T pre-built for the case.
