Here is a link to the list: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/b7pjMp

I'm considering either the Zalman Z11 Neo ATX Case, the NZXT S340 ATX Mid Tower Case, or the Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case case. Open to any suggestions that cost <£60. Please give a reason for your opinion!

Thanks a lot for your time.

Stick with the S340. Miles better than the 200R, Zalman Z11 and many cases that are in a comparable price range.

OR you could make minor changes and switch to an even better case with a just-as-good for the build power supply. The B2 750w is good enough for GTX 970 SLI if you plan to add another, and you can still overclock aswell.

I suggest this for the same price:

However, you are missing an SSD in your build?

Another thing, the Hyper 212 Evo is good but the Cryorig H7 costs the same and is even better and more silent on high fan speeds. Check it out:

@maddogfargo OK, thanks for the info, that's very helpful.

@RCFProd I have an 80gb SSD which I will migrate from my old (dead) pc to my new one. Thanks a lot for your list, I will definitely look into your suggested changes. Also, I appreciate your suggestion regarding the CPU Cooler, I will also look into that now.

The Cryorig H7 seems to have a fan rpm capability that is 400 less than that of the Cooler Master Hyper 212. Will my build be unaffected by the reduced fan-cooling potential, or is that last 400 unnecessary for me? Cheers.
