If your GPU is overheating, you can probably fix that by adjusting the fan speeds, there's no real call for a new case. Use Riva Tuner, ATI Tray Tools, or ATITool to adjust them, you can do it at a fixed percentage or dynamically based on temperature. That should solve your overheating problem right there.
If you really do want a new case, something cheap and effective would be the Cooler Master Centurion 590, or even the older (and cheaper) Centurion 5.
A good case CAN make the difference. Just explore all your options first.
I just bought a thermaltake case and my CPU temps droped 8C... To me thats massive.
Can you suggest me a good but inexpensive computer case? I'm planning to change my pc case because my gpu seems to overheat quite often. Thanks in advance.danny321

so you are actually unsure if it's any good, might want to reserve your promotion of the product until after trying it

Honestly? Poor cabling options, somewhat cramped, proprietary and hard to replace oversized upper exhaust fan, mediocre layout, and relatively low build quality (compared to say a similarly priced Lian-Li). Oh, and pretty loud and inefficient stock fans

my point exactly, it isn't that great especially for the price, i mean if it were priced closer to the CM 690 it might be more reasonable ... but the coolermaster case I have i know is about 40 dollars cheaper and there are minimal differences between the two, except that my case has a built in system for keeping the cables neat, and is already pre drilled for running a water cooling kit.

Oh well, seriously I'll still fanboy it.
