Here is my list of recommended cases from Newegg.

Recommended Cases
Updated 1/10

Since I can't read your mind and know what sort of case you like, I'm going to leave the decision up to you. If there's a case you don't see here, there's a reason it's not listed. I have bolded my most-often recommended cases and noted if they are something other than a mid-tower.


Tier 1 - These cases offer exceptional value and will have no difficulty handling high-performance hardware.

Tier 2 - If you want a higher-quality product without breaking the bank.

Tier 3 - Above $100, high-end enthusiast cases come into play. Rarely is spending this much necessary.

Tier 4 - Reserved for the most well-funded enthusiasts. This list is limited to Newegg.

The 680 is not that long. You'll be able to fit it in any of these cases. What are the rest of your specs, though? The 7970 and 670 are much, much better buys than the 680.

Have a look at the list and see if there's anything you like. I can't read your mind and know what sort of aesthetic you prefer.
