Hi guys I am currently looking to buy a new Tower/case I have a gigabyte ga-f2a88xm-ds2 motherboard and I am not sure on how to go about finding a new case that will fit my motherboard? If anyone could help suggest, preferably one with a clear side casing to see inside similar to the one below [any leds and fans inside would help] would prefer to be quite cheap also.

Because the MB is the micro ATX format, you can buy mATX, mid tower ATX case.
Bitfenix Nova Midi Tower Case - Black Window https://www.overclockers.co.uk/bitfenix-nova-midi-tower-case-black-window-ca-220-bx.html
Thermaltake Versa H23 USB 3 Midi Mesh Tower http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00PATIX8C/?tag=pcp0f-21
BitFenix BFC-COM-100-KKWS1-RP - Comrade Midi-Tower http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KZ4R5XG/?tag=pcp0f-21

Also if you use the aftermarket cpu cooler, you have to find out the case can support the cooler, and the GPU too. Like the 1st one, it can support up to 160mm tall cooler, and up to 320mm long and up to 140mm tall GPU.
 



Thanks so much for your time Cin, I have a Radeon r9 270x card and my brother said about maybe getting a full tower? not only for extra space and ventilation but to fit everything in and I might aswell for the same price? Is this true and are there any as I am also looking to buy white cathode lights off overclockers to fit inside.

I have also seen this one which I am quite interested and will most likely get? It is quite thin and I do have the standard amd x4 860k quad core cpu so hoping it should fit after checking all measurements - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/aerocool-aero-500-midi-tower-case-black-window-ca-153-ae.html
