So this is basically my first ground up pc build. Wasnt going to start that way but after a few times of telling yourself but for only another $200 I can replace this too and that would be great! I have my entire built done and as far as i know ready except for the case. Im going to overclock my cpu and gpu so there are going to be some heat issues. Bought a coolermaster hyper 212 evo for my cpu. Liquid cooled unless im wrong. Which i could be after 2 days of non stop searching. But i know nothing at all about liquid cooled systems. So was thinking maybe enough air flow and i wouldnt need a liquid cooled cpu cooler. So started looking at cases with lots of fans that looked cool. Its my first build. the case has got to look cool lol! So I started looking at the sensey cases? None of them would work with my mother board because it has 3 usb ports out the front and the case didnt or something like that. Oh by the way my build is as follows on this link http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Ricksmiley123/saved/LsDhP6. Most of it is bought paid for and on its way. Other than what you need to start with.... The case... Any help would be appreciated. Even multiple cases to narrow down some from what I think looks better. Also saw a mid tower i really wanted have cpu and gpu temps right out front with a knob to turn up or down your fans. I thought that was absolutely awesome! I still do. But my MoBo of coarse wouldnt fit. If anyone could find something like that and my motherboard could fit in it i think i would owe you big time. Ok done rambling. Any questions? Any cases for me to look at dont hesitate to drop a line. Oh and price range trying to stick around $100. Thanks guys. Appreciate any help you can send my way! Rick
 
try looking into the corsair cases. myself i have the 300r windowed version and i love it and it has spot for 7 fans 120mm and 140mm and the coolermaster hyper 212 will fit
 

Makes me wonder is a water cooler will even be necessary after 7 fans lol

Hyper 212 is an air cooler not liquid

like muchresearch pointed out the cm hyper 212 is air cooled and if you use this on a corsair 300r case there are 2 fan spot on the side panel and if you have the cm hyper 212 then you cannot install those fans
 


might have to leave out the 212 hyper in the begining and see how she goes.
 
All of the cases I linked will fit the 212, and the corsair 300r will fit, just can't mount side fans which is no big issue. If you plan on doing any overclocking you will absolutely need some sort of CPU cooler other than the stock one. You can do without it if you wont overclock, the stock cooler will work just fine at stock clocks
