Hi guys, would like some advice on the following matter.

1) I've currently got a CM Elite 311, and I'm looking to change cases because of poor airflow and lack of fan customization options. Unfortunately I'm quite ignorant with the current good casing options available. I've got around $100 to spend. Which cases would be the best options?

2) Anyone having problems with installing the Hyper 212 Evo? The four corner screws don't seem to be able to push through to the back of the mobo at all. I've had to apply sufficient strength to kill an elephant in order to screw the whole thing down (and that's without the back plate), and my CPU temps are soaring (60+ to 70C under load).

1) Try the Xigmatek Midgard II casing @ $89 (PCthemes), it comes with 2 120mm fans.

It should be the screws with the female thread and tighten it at the back of the mobo with the nuts
