Hello, world!

Im looking for an PC case, here are my requests:


  • • It must have some mesh in the front, for better airflow.

    • It must be an mATX case, it just feels off having so many expansion slots and dont use them.

    • It must support an 160mm tall CPU cooler, or at least 155mm.

    • Have an PSU Shroud and decent cable management.

    • Support dual 140mm fans for intake.

Thanks in advance!

I am talking about 2600 not 2600X. You need a cooler for 1600X, while 2600 has pretty good stock cooler already.

this RX580 8gb seems to be a better deal: https://www.pcgarage.ro/placi-video/xfx/radeon-rx-580-gts-xxx-edition-8gb-ddr5-256-bit/

So, you're basically looking something similar to NZXT H400 (specs) and Phanteks Eclipse P350X (specs) but with more mesh at the front? If so, how about Thermaltake Core X2,

Though, do note that choosing a PC case is personal choice since you are the one that sees it daily and needs to live with it and it's looks, not us. For my personal taste, i'd go with Fractal Design Focus G which is miniature looking version of my Corsair 750D v2 case i have for my Skylake build (full specs with pics in my sig),

The 2600X is almost 100$ more expensive than the 1600X, sad innit
I have arleady posted an list for the parts, so you should know the build price.

The website Im buying components from is called PCGarage.ro. (the search filters on this site are pretty wack)
