Choice Of PC Case

[GenericUser1]

So I'm starting to build a new PC mainly for gaming, I have finished searching for all the components for the build and I'm wanting to know what case I could get, I was hoping I could fit all my parts in to the Game Max Onyx Case (http://www.ebuyer.com/787873-game-max-onyx-rgb-mid-tower-atx-case-onyx?mkwid=sWA3N2WiH_dt&pcrid=51630194939&pkw=&pmt=&gclid=CKeW8_idhNQCFQTjGwodLRMA9Q) but I just didn't know wether everything would fit in it, here are my components:

CPU: i3 6100
CPU Cooler: Stock Cooler
Motherboard: Asus Strix B250F
RAM: 8GB DDR4 Corsair Vengeance 3000Mhz
Graphics Card: Asus GTX 1060 Dual 6GB
Harddrive: Seagate BarraCuda ST2000DM006 2TB 3.5"
WiFi: Ethernet

If I've missed any parts just ask in the comments, but will all this fit in to the case that I listed above, and could so,done also recommend a power supply, I will also have things like speakers, chargers etc.. Thanks!

Just asking but why would you buy an i3 in this day and age? The pentium murders that crap

 

[raisonjohn]

For a gaming PC, balance out that GTX 1060 6GB with an i5-7500 CPU (instead of the i3-6100). The 7th-gen CPU, with 4 cores and 4 threads, is ideal for a gaming rig, and will also pair nicely with the B250F motherboard you selected. For the RAM, no point in getting a 3000MHz speed as it won't be supported by the CPU and mobo. The max. speed that you can get is a 2400MHz.

If you are on a tight budget for the PSU, the Corsair CX450M will be more than enough for that rig (though not as flexible if you will decide on a more powerful GPU at a later stage). If you want such headroom and flexibility, a good and affordable PSU would be the Seasonic M12II-520 EVO or the Corsair CX550M. If you have a significant budget to spend, you can also consider the Seasonic G-550, the EVGA SuperNOVA G2 550, the EVGA SuperNOVA G3 550 or the Corsair RM550x (costs will depend on where you will buy the components from). All of the above suggested PSUs are either semi-modular or fully-modular.

Everything you listed will fit in that Game Max Onyx case. Note that the PSU mounting location is a bit cramped, so, fully-modular or semi-modular PSUs will help a lot (no unnecessary cables needed to cram in there).

the pentium g4560 doesn't murder the 6100, but it nearly matches it for almost half the price.

the Seasonic s12II 520W or 620W when they are usually a few bucks apart I get the 620W

looks like everything will fit to me

 

[Chugalug_]

Ditto.
@OP, what's your budget?
I can make a significantly better build for you.

Thankyou for the answer, and bout the power supply, would it really be necessary? I'm just trying to save as much money as I can...

 

[Chugalug_]

No, not necessary, he's exaggerating a bit, the case is pretty awful though, i'd defs swap that.
What's your budget?

 

[GenericUser1]

I have around £80 ($100) to spend on a case... I'm also looking for a case with a glass panel to who off the components inside

 

[Chugalug_]

Budget for the whole system in pounds?

 

[GenericUser1]

All together I have around £650 pounds to spend on the whole thing, this includes things like speakers and so on, I already have a monitor and a good one too, and I'm looking to build a very intensive gaming experience, I'm aiming for my PC to run CPU dependent games like GTA V at max settings constant 60 fps, as well as being able to run the redux shaders at a playable fps... I also already have my graphics card an Asus GTX 1060 6GB Dual core

 

[cisco001]

Have you consider i5-7500/ Ryzen5 1400 with RX570?
I don't really see the point of getting dual core...

[Chugalug_]

So when you say 'and so on', what do you need included?
Peripherals and speakers?

 

[GenericUser1]

Things like speakers, LED's to brighten it up, headphones, and probably a microphone

 

[Chugalug_]

Any reason you want headphones AND speakers?
I don't even use my speakers anymore.
Two choices, I recommend the second.

[raisonjohn]

OP already stated that he owns the Asus GTX 1060 6GB Dual, why would you recommend for him to downgrade to an RX 570?? That's wasting money man.
