M-ATX Case

[paper006]

Good day

I am looking for a Micro ATX case. My specs:
-GTX780 ichill inno3d ultra
-MSI Z87M Gaming
-Need an optical drive

I came across the corsair 350d and the silverstone sg10 case. The silverstone sg10 is a really nice case, but it is not available in my country. I live is South Africa. Is the corsair 350d a good enough case? I wanted to go with air cooling.
PS The case performance(cooling,noise) is more important than size.

Thanks

350D is a very nice case, definitely recommended.

If you want to pay less, maybe Cooler Master N200?

or you could look at the ATX case called HAF XB - its a cube, two sections (top and bottom), very compact, quite affordable, and all around very good.

Would give that 780 all the air she needs.

Fractal Design Define Mini is my go to m-ATX case. Using it for my home server with 5 HDDs an a 6 core AMD CPU. The CPU fan never spins above 600rpm and my HDDs idle 29-31 and never break 38 degrees under load. 2 case fans in the front and 1 in the back, all undervolted. You can remove the top HDD CAGE if your video card is long.


Love this thing. Absolutely silent and built like a tank.

I agree... I have 2! Fractal may not be available to the OP, though. :'(

The Obsidian series cases are pretty decent, I was originally going to rebuild my desktop in a 550D, but I downsized into the Define Mini and couldn't be happier. Like Lehtv says, the 350D looks like a very nice case...

Loving the Rosewill Line-M i recently put my current build in sig into,stock fans keep my system pretty cool but you could have more fun swapping them for quieter fans or higher cfm. The review Anandtech had for it was good enough to sell me.

For something boxy like I'd throw the Lian-Li V354 in as a look see too.

The Lian Li is really nice but oh boy .. so expensive ..
