Hey TTG I have a budget left of $110 for a case and GPU.

I am building a gaming PC and I have GeForce GT610 or 620 and CoolerMaster Elite 430 or HAF 912 in mind for finishing.

Both the GT610 and 620 aren't worth mentioning. You literally won't get ANYWHERE with either of those cards when gaming. Lets do some math here, because you don't seem to have enough money to buy a good case and GPU.
With an inexpensive but quality case, Zalman Asgard Pro, [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
And a GPU, in this case a 7770 (which is the lowest card I like to recommend for gaming) [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Totals up to about $185, so I highly recommend saving up that money and buying some quality parts, and don't underestimate the 7770 as it is a great performer in low budget builds. Just make sure you have a sufficient and quality PSU, if you wouldn't mind, please post your unit.

The Asgard Pro looks much cleaner and classy in my opinion. The front bezel on the Z9 irks me, I wouldn't be caught owning one. Thats not to say it's a bad case, it is relatively good. I chose the Asgard Pro here because it is at a great price and like I said is great looking and of great quality.

Well then. I will save up BUT! I have a GeForce GT220 and well I can say it can run any game on Mediam to High over 60 fps. And I have a default Compaq 240V PSU.

For some reason I extremely doubt you can run any game on medium to high with over 40 fps. I used to have a GTX 560 TI and that couldn't pull it off. Whatever floats your goat I guess.

Idk bro. For some reason everyone doubts my GPU. But when they see for themselves they believe.. The 220 is extremely good in my case <3 And I might buy 610 or 620 for an upgrade and use it along side 220.

But what about the coolermaster elite 430? Or the HAF 912? I mean they're great cases with quality and Look good too! BUT why wont the 610 or 620 won't get me no where? I mean my gt 220 can play every game ever made on mediam to high. But well over 60 fps.
