I used the same AMD FX processor in a horrible old case while slowly upgrading. The old case was cramped with terrible airflow, making the fans noisy and slowing down performance. This case worked fine for my system. The front fan just does its job and I installed a bigger CPU cooler and salvaged one of my old fans (which was easy to install). I have an SSD, there is room for one more, and two HDDs are mounted in the case and stowed with the power supply. My PSU isn't modular, so it's a little cramped at the bottom. It doesn't affect performance and you don't see it. It was easy to set up and I think it looks good. Overall, I'm happy to continue using this setup in this case for the rest of the system's lifespan.
