By the way, I found a review of the case (from 3 years ago) and the GPU cooling can be a slight problem: https://www.bit-tech.net/reviews/tech/cases/fractal-design-node-202-review/1/ Other than that, you'll probably want to go with a bigger HDD/SSD, as today's games are repidly growing in size. |
Thanks for the review link - yeah, GPU cooling seems to be a slight concern... Perhaps I should opt for this - here'a review, just fyi

Only problem I see is cooling, however, if you are going with the 8400, then you will not have to worry about overclocking or heat. It should be fine, plenty of small form factor cpu coolers out there. |
I've actually just noticed that the i5-9400 is just around the corner - or at least available on pre-order - is it worth waiting? Tried to find info on it's performance bump over the 8400 but details seem thin on the ground...

Yeah, Scan has Silverstone Raven and Fortress - I'm now gravitating to the latter as I'm not a fan of plastic - though is pricier than Raven & Fractal options...
