for about the same price its a better performer and quieter option
or

if you want to spend a few $ more. This is a top cooler.
For a case there are tons of valid options. Antec still my favorite mostly for their build quality and silent operation.

I will will never go near a Raidmax or Termaltake and the likes (recently got rid of a Coolermaster 690 that was about 2 years old and looked like its was 10) that thin metal, poor construction quality, bright colors and flimsy plastic parts are just not up to par. A better case will not only last longer and look better but also run quieter, cooler and cleaner (with decent removable filters rubber mounts etc.)
Happy building
and a Happy new year
