First Time Builder - Need Help With Choosing a Case

[che10]

Hello everyone!
I have finally decided to build a PC on my own after owning laptops for the past 13 years and I need some help in deciding which options are the best for my build.
I am planning to build something that would last me at least 4-5 years - do some light productivity + gaming(1440p). I am not a competitive gamer. I play games as a hobby.
My build will be around a R9 7900x.
I would like to know which case to get from the ones below(They are the only available ones in my country):

• NZXT H710i - $180
• NZXT H710 - $180
• NZXT H510 Elite - $168
• CoolerMaster Mastercase H500P Mesh - $160
• MSI MPG Velox 100p Airflow Case - $137. MY CURRENT PICK.
• NZXT H510i - $120
• COOLER MASTER MASTERBOX TD500 - $91
• COOLER MASTER MASTERBOX 520 MESH - $91

Thanks in advance!

I have no practical experience but from what i can tell abuut the NZXT cases in that list by looking at them, airflow willl be limited unless you run them without the front panel mounted.

I have no personal experience with any of those cases but i would personally maybe go with CoolerMaster Mastercase H500P Mesh

Welcome to the forum

Pending an expert dropping by, physical dimension is important for fitting GPU and whatever cooling system you'll use—so measure up!

The looks of the case are always personal choice, but ideally IMO people should be buying cases with ventilated front panels. Pick one that fits the other components you choose, that has good cooling options.

Looks to me thats either the MSI you like or one of the Coolermaster Meshs out of the ones you listed, provided they will fit whatever CPU cooler/PSU/GPU you pick for the final build.

PSU

I was wondering about that. So PSUs vary in size, yeah?

They sometimes vary in length which can be a problem in smaller cases. If they're ATX size I think the depth and width are always the same for case compatibility.
