I was helped by Overclock.net this far, and I'm concerned with my cooling. They told me I should replace my case and I have also decided on my own to replace the cooler.

My Case Choices:
My Cooler Choices:
- Phanteks PH-TC14PE
- be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 (once the price stops being shit)
- Silverstone HE01
- Noctua NH-D15 (color doesn't really work at all in my build, but I can man up)
What I want in a case:
- Great airflow
- Great cable management
- Ability to fit a giant cooler
- Looks fairly nice (H440, Enthoo EVOLV ATX, HAF X, and the MCP5 all look nice to me)
- Durable (I got a dumb ass dog who crashes into things)
- Actual, working fan filters
What I want in a cooler:
- Great AMD performance (like the HE01)
- Pretty quiet (wouldn't be a problem in the H440 or the Define R5)
- Somewhat easy to install (212 EVO is great example of a unnecessarily-difficult-to-install cooler)
- High TDP (reason I'm upgrading the cooler is because of the 140w TDP)
