i would go for CM 430 due to it's moderate airflow system (it can accommodate up to 6 fans) n quite a good looking (black interior) case. smile.gif

u could try to put a side panel case fan as exhaust. hmm.gif

anyway, with such system, i recommend u to get a bigger case like Corsair 600T or HAF X. if u have higher budget then go for Silverstone FT02. it is a very heavy case n superb airflow. thumbup.gif

the HAF X is a full tower chassis whereby corsair 600T is a mid tower. if u r opting for spaces in the chassis then go for HAF X, but if u r looking for good air flow (even with the stock fans) then go for Corsair 600T. the HAF X stock fans kinda lousy especially the side panel. u cant even feel the wind. doh.gif

n of coz, FT02 is the best since it is the most expensive chassis among the other 2 chassis. great air flow. really respect. notworthy.gif

tats my opinion. tongue.gif

if its more then u can juz connect directly to ur power supply with the 4pin-molex converter which it should b provided. smile.gif

u need a screw driver, screws, a lot of cable ties, n if u r going to remove ur CPU heatsink then u will need alcohol swab (u can get it in any pharmacy n it is quite cheap) n thermal paste (this u had to get it from computer accessory shop n the price might vary depending on the brand n features). laugh.gif
