I'm using some old spare parts I have lying around to throw a computer together to stick in my (non-home) office so I can stop dragging my laptop around.
Doesn't have to be (nor do I expect it to be at that price) an amazing case, just something that works.
The thing is, the old parts I have lying around include a Thermalright Ultra 120 heatsink (160.5mm tall) and a Radeon 7970 (reference/stock cooler). Plus an ATX motherboard.
Wouldn't mind something that might dampen the noise of the 7970 a little, won't be using it a lot but it'll be nice to have the option for when I get stuck at the office. The case has to be sufficient to cool a 2500k, maybe with a minor OC but nothing fancy.
I was considering Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01 but it doesn't look like it'll fit the Thermalright. A lot of the other cases in that price range look like they might be in the same boat (not only that but quite a few of them look to only fit micro ATX).
Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions?
