Looking for a case for my new gaming pc

[Timothyhii]

Hi, im looking for a case for my new gamining pc. This is the first time i ever build a pc and i am not planning to overclock at the moment. I really like the CM storm stryker. Are there other cases that are able to support my system and looks cool? Thanks !!

If you're not overclocking, a 50$-80$ case will do, look for the Corsair 200R/300R, there's also the Fractal design R4(white is at 80$ in newegg).

A CM Storm Series Trooper is close to it

Cases are so subjective its tough to recommend. Some may like a plain black box while others prefer something more blinged out. That being said, my main PC is in a CM Storm Stryker and I love it!

I just bought a cm enforcer for 79.99 and it looks really sweet imo. It also is tom hardware approved or suggested buy of 2012. i havent seen the case or used it at all but from my research it seems like a good choice

Overclocking isn't really affected by your choice of case at all. Even if you're not going to overclock a roomy case with good air flow will ensure longevity of the components inside it.

Here's cases I recommend (AVOID Apevia, Raidmax, Xion, and similar brands) :

$50 - $75: Corsair 200R, Antec 300 Illusion, Cooler Master HAF 912

$75 - $100: Corsair 300R, Fractal Design Arc MIDI, NZXT Phantom 410, Cooler Master HAF 922

$100 - $125: Antec 1100, Corsair 500R, NZXT Phantom, Fractal Design Define R4, Antec P280

$125 - $150: Azza Hurrican 2000, NZXT Switch 810, Corsair Obsidian 550D, Cooler Master Storm Stryker, Silverstone RV02,

Well, if he's not overclocking, that means he will not put some top air cooler or radiator(s) for water cooling, it depends on the budget, a 50-100$ case will do just fine, as long it's a good one.
