Hi all. I am planning to upgrade my graphic card from a 6850 to a R9 280x, but since my current casing is small (CM Elite, my uncle went into a store and literally told the shopkeeper he got less than 50 bucks and want to get a casing in an intimidating manner) and my PSU is also a CM 500w(the cheapest 2-3 years back)

Mobo is Asrock HM77 Pro4/MVP, planning to get Gigabyte's R9 280x. Looking at the Sharkoon T28 and a Coolermaster Silent Pro Gold 600w. Any advice on the casing and PSU? Pricing I am keeping to around 100 bucks for casing, 150+ on psu. Will pay a bit more if needed.

Just get the Superflower HX600 600w ~ $109

For chassis at $109 best you could go is the NZXT H230.
