    Case <$50

    I was thinking of getting

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811129182

    Anyone know what that case is like?
    Would it fit a Hyper 212+ and a 7850?

    Also Hyper 212+ or Xigmatek Gaia?
    If anyone has suggestions for different cases,let me know
    But it needs to fit a 7850 and Heatsink like(Hyper 212+ or Xigmatek Gaia)

    There is a pretty simple way, to judge the width of a case: Does it have a 120mm fan next to the ATX-shield? If yes, then it most likely will fit most 120mm tower heatsinks.
    In this special case, you probably will have even more space available, because the door is bent outwards above the socket.

    As for the Radeon 7850, there should be no problem whatsoever. Most 7850 cards are only medium size and will fit in nearly every case. (even most µATX of-the-shelf computers you can buy)
    Why do something simple, when there is a complicated way?

    Antec cases normally have a very good build quality, and seeing that this case already comes equipped with 4 120mm fans, i would say the price/performance is pretty good on this one.
    The two cases that neuk mentioned are also good, but i would say that Antec one is superior.

    If you are looking for additional choices, here are some:
    - NZXT Source http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811146075
    - Fractal Core 1000 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811352009 (Be advised that this is a µATX case)

    I think I will purchase the Antec Case then seems quite good for my budget and includes 4 fans.Gonna look into the NZXT though but not the Fractal as I have not using a small build.

    the fractal might not fit the cooler, but is of higher quality imo. the included fans on the antec case are really pointless unless you like having a rocket ship for a computer, in terms of noise.
