Hey guys another question, is there any decent PC case you can recommend which will fit the Hyper 212 EVO, just thought I'd ask considering it's a pretty big cooler which sticks out quite a bit.

(BTW it needs to be an ATX case.)

Oh right, also I want to make sure that I get a case which has good airflow (I want to keep the processor as cool as possible when overclocking).

the case is not the most important thing when building a computer, it looks fine so long as everything fits in there

Yeah I guess so, I think I have all of the hardware planned out now, thanks for your help.

I'll most likely have this built by the end of this month Big Grin

Guys, quick question, will the SAPPHIRE AMD R7 265 Graphics Card (2GB, DDR5) be okay to run most games on Dolphin at 4x resolution?

I have a second PC with this card in there and I'm thinking of taking it out and putting this card into the Dolphin PC I'm going to build.
