Case for CM Hyper 212

[sathyan]

I just upgraded from the stock AMD cooler to Cooler Master Hyper 212 + but now my case won't close (I should have measured). I'd like to take this opportunity to upgrade my 2000-vintage case to one which:
1. fits the Cooler Master Hyper 212 + (looks like I need about 8" width)
2. fits ATX motherboard & PSU
3. allows for 120mm fan (my case only has 80mm)
4. has front USB2 connectors

I'm looking for something around $50 or $60 either online or at Frys. Any suggestions?

Antec 300 is what I have. Fits the Hyper 212+ with a few mm to spare and cools very very well for an inexpensive case. It can be had for $40 on sale sometimes, but I think the regular price is $50 or $60.

Also consider the Rosewill CHALLENGER it isnt the best quality but it comes with lots of fans and isnt TOO bad to work with (although the side panels feel a little cheap)

212+ is pretty small should fit most cases.

Doesn't fry's have the Cooler Master 690 II on sale for $69 currently? Little more but it looked pretty nice.

I just bought Cooler Master Elite 430, is pretty nice case. Is black inside and on the outside.

Have it. Damn good cable management and plenty of room for a mid tower. If I remove the optional drive bays there is plenty of room for my dual 5870s too.

It will fit in the Zalman Z9 Plus, although you won't be able to use the second 120mm Side Panel Fan. XFire 5870s will also fit in that case.
