New Case!

[KalC]

Alrighty, now that ive decided on my power supply i was looking in to getting a new case aswell!

so basically im just asking what cases you like and/or give the thumbs up to?

I like the look of the mid-tower thermaltake soprano DX! http://www.thermaltake.com/product/C.../ve7000bws.asp

And possibly the Aguila version, my price range is roughly £70 quid-ish

recommendations lads?

Beats the Thermaltack stuff imo, Lian li's are good too ?

I was looking at this the other day.

This looks like a fantastic case, got everything that I find makes a good quality case at a really affordable price too.
Good choice in recommendation.
Im using a CM cavalier 3 - top build quality but the cooling seems off balance due to the front 8cm intake, but I added a Scythe Kamabay which helped although Im now feeling the case is a little cramped with all the cables around.

Nice. Would that case house a water cooling system also?

Lian-Li eh...would you be kind enough to point me in the direction from where to buy them?

Not my favourite shop but this case is sweet as in your price range. I've got a Coolermaster Wavemaster being modded at the moment and thats only got 80mm fans (got a 120 in the roof now !) but the build quality is brilliant, owned two Thermaltake cases (before seeing the light) and they dont compare imo !?

Yup the Coolermaster Mystique 631 has water cooling features. See the review HERE

More or less the same as the above, but meh

If you can stretch 20 quid then i'd seriously recommend this (akasa): http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=137809

Really impressed with the coolermaster! The mystique 632 especially, looks great and got good reviews (from you lot anyway) lol

I was looking at the Lian Li website, saw the funkiest case i ever seen!

case is coming tommorow, hopefully!
but on xfire i was discussing it with tigerboyce and i am gonna put a cloth over the 20cm fan when not in use, plus i got 2 fanfilters here and i ordered 3 from scan. thermalright ultra came but still waiting for the fans very very cool case.

I hate doors on cases. Apart from the obvious drawbacks I can't see how you can get good airflow into the case.
