Computer Case Suggestions?

[McKennan McCall]

Welp. I just built a new PC, and everything's going great..But then when I was rendering some videos, I noticed my CPU was at 60-69C..I need a new case lol. I'm not sure which case I have now, all I know is it's about 4-5 years old, has a Dragon on the front with a Yin-Yang that used to glow, and no side covering, so my components are open, and there isn't a CPU cooling fan.

SHORT VERSION:

I need to know which cheap case with a CPU coolant I could get from Best Buy that can support:

Asrock h79m Pro 4 Motherboard
Intel i-5 series CPU
EVGA GTX 970
SMART 650W PSU

What kind of cooler do you have?

CPU coolant? Like water cooling? Or thermal paste? Coolant as in fans? If we're going best price v performance the new phanteks enthoo evol atx. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811854009

the NZXT Phantom 410 its a nice case maybe to high for your budget, something older could be the Haf 912 I had the X although really loud and Ugly for my taste they are still rock solid and cheap

for an excelent cpu cooler I would always recommend Noctua Nh d15 Best buy only has the d14 i think if aswell to expensive the cooler maste hyper 212 evo is a really affordable cooler and will definitly be better than the stock rubish intel one

That might be the problem. Do you mean on the CPU or in the case?

No thats my bad i gave the wrong case. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811854022&cm_re=enthoo_evolv_atx-_-11-854-022-_-Product

I'd have to agree with you on nzxt though i'd say the h440. 170 might out of budget for op.

I mean the the cases cooling fan for the CPU. When my case wasn't all torn apart (lol) it had a fan facing opposite of the CPU. I don't have the case parts anymore.

I checked my thermal paste, everything looks as if I just put it together. It's thermal take, not sure if that's good or not. Anyways, I'd prefer one that's about 30-60 dollars, with some LED decor, and one I can pick up from the store.

Good choice the important is to have enough holes :lol: if you want some colors you could save some money and buy some led fans, and if you want performance you cant take the noctua ones they are always super
