Title says all, recently sold my rig to travel and realize I didn't need the extra money..so building another.

I need only the pc hardware, no mouse or monitors etc.

intel preffered but I'm open to amd.
Need windows 10
Going with just a cooler master 212 Evo for CPU cooling and prefer a nzxt full case.

I would do the research myself but I'm in Malaysia currently and would be very appreciative to those that help me now :)

Canadian dollars please

I personally do not like full cases, they are to large, and really really not needed without some overkill custom watercooling system.

I fit SLI, 280mm rad etc in my mid tower.

If you need a windows key, you can get one on kinguin.net for about $25

I appreciate it, and while I don't mind mid towers I prefer full just for my own personal aesthetic setup, and possible upgrades in future.

Only like 3" difference between that case, And a typical full size case.

Imagine if you had 6.5". And you GF was pleased with it. And one day is just grew an extra 3". And you went all in, she could be destroyed.

I don't like the aesthetic of the excess space. Makes the case feel empty, not like you gonna run 3way sli now that nvidia doesn't support it. And doubt you gonna use one the the few EATX motherboards on the market today.


Sure you can make some amazing custom watercooled builds, if you feel like using like 700$+. but you can do some beautiful dual rad builds in something like a H440 mid tower (2x 360mm)

Because 6.5 -> 9.5 is the same as 19->22 @__@


All I was trying to say, Is a fullsize case isnt a HUGE increase in size.

It was all fun. I gave my reason the post after it, why I don't fund full tower.
