    Case Question

    Hi guys.

    I am due to get a new mobo cpu and ram, and I have an Antec 900 sitting about doing nothing right now * using a nice alienware case... yes a moment of madness... not proud of it *

    So back on point, I plan on the E8400, Asus P5kE, and 4GB Corsair Dominator Ram, I also plan on a nice cooler, and a modular psu in the future, along with a nice 9800 series card.

    So I am wondering, what is the best large size case apart from the CM Stacker, which can handle large components with great air cooling, good looks, and does not look like something from a Ricer Factory with neons all over place.

    Thanks all.

    If you have the money for it the silverstone TJ-07 and TJ-09 are especially huge and both have awesome cooling.

    That said the Antec P182 does a very good job (similar to the TJ-09 really) but costs less than half of the silverstones. Whether a 9800 will fit though I don't know..probably should.

    The akasa eclipse 62 is pretty basic but also has very good cooling I find and that thing is massive inside.

    I would also recommend the Lian-Li PC V2100 PLUS

    and the Thermaltake Armor+
