i need a psu and a full tower case for
mobo: gigabyte ga z77x d3h
gpu: sapphire radeon r9 toxic 270x
ram: kingston hyperx 8 gb
cpu: i3 3240
i am thinking of adding another r9 toxic in the future (1-2 years) and upgrading to i7 3**** k and overclock the cpu, (i will have the mobo and the gpu for a low price and i am not intending to change them!):no:
please suggest a decent PSU and a cheap full tower atx case as the the option are many and i am confused in choosing the right component.:??:
i would really like a case with a good airflow for future upgrade and adding a fan or 2 as well as a usb 3.0.
thx in advance!
BTW: i would really like if you can find a case in the following website: http://pcandparts.com/price.htm
as this is cheapest website (better than any store) in my country. as i will buy the r9 after a month from my build
EDIT: a mid tower that support these specs. would be good too.
BUT please FOCUS on the main question!

For this current build 500 is more than enough. If you want to SLI in the future. I would say go with a quality 700W. 700 W will run an overclocked i7 and two GPU's easily.
This is a solid one below 100$

A mid tower case in enough in most situations. This is a very good one

But if you absolutely need a full tower, this is a cheaper one

I don't understand why you need a Full Tower. Even Mid Tower cases can offer great air flow for a 2 card setup if you ever get one without the added xtra weight of a Full Tower. Just cause you're thinking about adding another card later on doesn't mean that a Full Tower is needed.
 


Go for a 750 or 850w. How much are you looking to spend on a psu?

This one isn't cheap and it isn't a Tower but if you don't have many 3 1/2 inch devices the Corsir Air 540 has a small form factor. Like a Mini Tower on Steroids. Although my wife calls it the Refrigerator. Sigh. It has lousy 3 1/2 inch and 5 1/4 expandability. But it will fit any size MB including EX, Extra Large Power Supplies, Long Video Cards. You either love or hate that case.

For me it's great, it's the first case that I could put on top of my desk. It's only 1 inch higher then a mini-tower and it fit under my shelves and because it's wide it has great stability.

If lived in LA area and could drive to Ontario I have my old Haf 922 that is extremely large for a tower, I'd just about give it away. It's an awesome case but when I did my recent build. The Broom Swept clean.
