Hello fellow Carbies!

So I'm seeking some purchasing advice on the monitors & cases I listed below. What would you say are worthy of purchasing ?
Basically I want to get the best bang for my buck.

Budget:
R 3700 for monitor ( 1080p is good for now (y) )
R 2000 for case ( preferred new )

Specs:
I7 9700k
Rtx 2070 super
m.2 ssd

Monitor:
Dell S2419HGF 144Hz - R3499 - ( DELL S2419HGF 24" Full HD Gaming Monitor - Best Deals - South Africa )
or
Viewsonic VX2458 144Hz curved - R3399 - ( ViewSonic VX2458 144hz Gaming Monitor - Best Deal - South Africa )

Case:
Cougar Panzer Max - R1999 - ( takealot.com ) Designed for cooling, less fans & but a bit old
or
Evetech Trio - R1999 - ( Evetech TRIO RGB Gaming Case - Best Deal - South Africa ) 6 fans inculded but not so sure on the overall quality
or
Corsair iCue 220T - R1749 - ( CORSAIR iCUE 220T RGB Airflow Gaming Case - Black - Best Deal - South Africa ) Designed for cooling, less fans included but cheaper :)

Any other case recommendations is welcome !
 
The Pc011 has insane airflow.

I was about to say, spending R2k on a case better be something high end. The 011 is made for airflow, easy access and numerous rad layout configurations.

I have 9x fans in mine on super low RPM and this Ryzenstruggles to heat it up like it used to in my NZXT and Corsair before that. The 011 over anything, anytime.
 
Best airflow case is still Cooler Master H500 Meshy.
but for the price that lian li is amazing

(proofing
)

Monitor do not go viewsonic, Either dell or AOC or 2nd hand asus perhaps

Recently did a build with the iCue 220T.

Nothing particularly wrong with it, but wasn't particularly impressed either. Didn't do too well with temps using a Ryzen 3800X and 2060 Super.
