New build case

[erakepio]

Hey all,

FINALLY got my system specs all sorted..now im just concerned about the case. Originally wanted the CoolerMaster Stacker 830 Evolution - Nvidia Special Edition as the case looks pretty good and ive read some good things about it. My other choice is the Thermaltake VH6000BWS Armor+ case which again looks good.

I'll be putting in 4GB DDR3, nvidia 8800GTX, Intel Quad-core 2.6GHz, and 2x 500GB HDD. CPU cooler i've chosen is the Thermalright 120-Ultra Extreme with a 120MM fan on top.

Will all this fit snuggly into one of these cases (65CM is the max height im able to play with (also like the look of som lian-li cases).

Any advice is welcomed. looking to order in the next 2 weeks!

i have the akasa eclipse 62. its huge i can put my head inside also it is not tall rather deep

IMO, the eclipse doesnt look very nice externally, but internally amazing.

id go for the armor + or even the CM-690

I prefer the Thermaltake case myself to the Coolermaster.
These are big cases so everything should be okay but I don't have one myself to comment fully on it.

If you want a MASSIVE case go for the lian li V2100 plus

or the motzart

If you liked the look of the Stacker 830 then eBuyer have 831s on special offer £80 each for most mesh colours Green, Orange, White, Silver and Blue (Black £140 and Red £100).

I would also consider the CM690 a good case with good cooling and reasonably quiet and smaller than the Stacker if size is an issue?

Other manufacturers Antec you will be looking at the 900 or the P182, Silverstone are a touch expensive (at least the tremjin series is) the TJ07, TJ09 and TJ10 are the ones to look at in the tremjin series (the others are also good just a bit older in there styling) they also have the Kublai and Precision series which are cheaper but still look fantastic.
