Recommend PC case, vents not on left or top!!!

Otas

Hi,

Can you recommend PC case (mid tower). Issue is that the PC is on shelf with it's left side against the wall and the post is always dumped on to the top. It will house Intel Core i5-4690K, Asus AMD Radeon R9 280X 1070MHz 3GB R9280X-DC2T-3GD5 & 3x HDD. So far I have found CoolerMaster N Series N300 KWN2 but it looks bit cheap...

Thanks,

Otas

Should have plenty of room.

Thanks,

Looks good but I'm bit concern about the No. of vents. 2x120mm intake and 1x120mm exhaust looks bit light.

Yeah, that's what I was just posting about. If you're looking for good airflow:

It has a nice slot too on top that I guess you could put your post on and have air being exhausted from the side and back.

This one wouldn't work as the left side is blocked. And I don't have control over my wife not to dump stuff on top of the case neither...

I assumed you were talking about left side of the case (from the back to front) apologies for that.

Otas

No problem, still appreciate your comments. What I gathered the sides are called left & right as you view them from the front. I have spent a lots of time looking for suitable case believe me...

Ninjah Tigah

That is the case but just have to be sure.

Btw, the N300 would be suitable. It should be a sturdy enough case.

Is there enough space to leave a gap between the case and the wall?

As regards the letters, blue tack this to the top case, not over the fan exhaust!

I wouldn't see a problem with that, I have 1x120mm in and 1x120mm out, and it's fine, I used to have more in previous builds but then I thought why am I bothering, doesn't affect operation or performance at all, and I can live with a few extra degrees on the cpu or gpu.

Look at inverted ATX cases, they have the door on the other side.

I use a Bitfenix outlaw for a similar reason.
