Case and/or PSU

Hi all,

I'm looking to get a new case/PSU.

Current setup:
Case:Fractal Design - Core 1500 MicroATX Mini Tower Case
PSU: be quiet! - Pure Power 10 CM 400W 80+ Silver
GPU: MSI - GeForce GTX 1070
Motherboard:Gigabyte - GA-B250M-D3H Micro ATX
16gb RAM: Crucial - Ballistix Sport LT 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 x 4
CPU: Intel - Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor

Everything is really cramped in the case, and the stock cables with the PSU are a nightmare for cable management (I dont know why, but the cables seriously annoy me). I'm just looking to make it look a bit less messy/pleasing to the eye. Any suggestions for improvements would be great. I think a slightly wider case with some hidden areas for cable management would be ideal, but if the PSU is trash I'd be open to ideas too.

Many thanks

Get yourself a nice Enthoo Evolv mATX TG case. I have the ATX version and love it.

PSU doesn't need to be replaced, as for the case it depends on your budget?

If it could be kept under €100 that would be great.

Braided Cable extensions - work with any brand PSU, and available in lots of colours. Cheap enough, too.

Phanteks P300
Phanteks P400/s
Aerocool P7-C1
Fractal Design Meshify C
Fractal Design Define C
Thermaltake Core G21 TG

All of these cases will do a great job, it really only depends on what color scheme you want?

Is the 1070 and a i7 6700K not cutting it a little fine on a 400W?
