I have following components

Asus prime a320m-f
ryzen 5 2600
gigabyte windforce gtx 1060 6gb
cooler master 380w atx psu

i have old atx case where it doesnt fit gtx 1060 in part where u screw in gpu that metal bracket and also airflow is terrible

so i wanted to buy new pc case and the one i can afford and get is

ms fighter s300

will all parts be compatible and fit in the case?

I suspect the issue you have is the GPU's I/O not fitting between the slats at the rear? A common problem of old chassis that were designed when single slot GPUs were the norm. You can just bend that slat out of the way.

Likely would fit, but that chassis doesn't look very good for airflow either.

You really want the front as intake so you can get fresh air to the GPU.

In the ms fighter s300 with exhaust fans in the top, or nothing, there is basically nowhere for cool air to come in. If you put intake fans in the top, they have to push air against the rising air current coming from the GPU, and the majority of cool air would escape via the rear exhaust. If you flipped that, there would be no way for air to get out of the chassis at all.

yeah that part doesnt fit in so it doesnt let gpu get in fully into pcie x16 slot

well thats best option for the budget i have


other i could get

All pretty much have the same problem. A functionally sealed off front.

Can't really tell from the picture, but it looks like there is some side venting at the front on that Joker case. If it is large enough, that is better than nothing. You lose a lot of airflow taking a 90 degree turn to get in, so the fans will have to run a lot harder to get the same airflow as something more direct.

but all 3 of these support mentioned components?

Yes, the latter two are Mid-tower, so actually larger then necessary.
