I'd suggest you bump to a 650w

Case CoolerMaster MasterBox Lite 5 RGB Tempered Glass

i can't see how the air is getting in, is it really just the narrow bottom/top slits...?

So a psu 550w is not enough to support?

The review on it is good.

The review on it is good.

the official cm site not much pics, so i googled out some pics jus now
really very restricted intake, i dunno/dun bother abt reviews
plus, the fans are placed outside the frame - so makes them even closer to the front panel glass

Spoiler

The case is chio (i was eyeing it at first) but ya, alot of youtube review claim it has airflow issues. Good for those non-overclocking low to mid range build.

Similarly as Phanteks P400S so i dont see it as a problem.

Not sure about airflow but I think F3 Elite should be better? Or if TS want cases with fan included then a better option in my opinion might be Tecware void or vision since it’s 3 front 1 rear

In short, you can look at the bottom and maybe pick one of them. I'm using Meshify C and I have no problem with airflow

so its the "new normal" nowadays lol...? i jus looked at p400s pics, the intakes slots look much wider - but me coming from corsair 730t, i can't really accept

well since no problem, kendo21 can go ahead & get the masterBox lite 5 rgb, then update us how the gpu & cpu performs...

 

[kendo21]

wa u all make me like test subject lol! i cant really buy any case over 100 bucks as im over budget.

Then Phanteks P300! Only $95 when I got it previously.

So my main concern is whether my 550W PSU is sufficient to run all my component!

550W if you don't wish to O.C. 650W will be safer if you OC both CPU and GPU...
