Hi! I'm building my own desktop and i wonder how can i choose my case? I am very new to these stuffs. This is my first time building my own desktop.

So far this is what i choose:

Mobo : Asus maximus VI Formula
CPU : Intel Core i7-4770K quad core
Heatsink : Cooler Master GTS V8
RAM : CORSAIR Vengeance Pro 16gb (2x8Gb) DDR3 1866MHz

Is there any problem with these specs? What case should i choose for my desktop? (Prefer Cooler Master).


EDIT: I'm building this for gaming mainly. I'm still finding a good GPU also i will just stick with the air cooling:)
 
Solution


AIO = Better temps
GTS V8 = better look

Edit: Keep in mind a heavy cooler may stress your motherboard.

Yes it has a wireless adapter.
No, the AIO comes with it pre-installed.
