Need help with a case

[TheLockstah]

Hey so I'd like some ideas on a case and PSU to pick, I'm on a budget build and I'll be running a i5 4690K on a Gigabyta Z97-D3H board with a Sapphire Vapor X 280x

what is your budget?
you should probably look at tier 1 or 2 in this list (around 500 w)

My budget is $2000, but that's also including my new peripherals which is about $200

$2k is a budget build? You can do far better than that, for $2k, even with peripherals.

I'll only spend that much if I actually have to, I'm trying to keep the price down as much as possible

No need to spend that much, you can get a solid system, with OS, monitor, keyboard, and speakers for a little over 1.5k.
