    Re: What Case should I go for?

    I've just bought a CoolerMaster Stacker 832 and it's so quiet and Huge, and the Airflow is fantastic, but it is Expensive, it cost me here in the UK £165.

    I don't need to look for a bigger case for a long time yet.

    All my chassis go on the floor, and I prefer the ports at the bottom - it means you can leave an external HDD on the floor without stressing the short wires they have. The tops of the PCs always have peripherals of some description on them, so there's no place for them there.

    Have to say that case looks awesome Clunk. Still a very obvious Lian-Li (even without the logo), yet quite a departure from their usual restrained classy look.

    Well it goes to show different strokes for different folks. All that sits on top of my PC is disks, and I like the ports at the top for my flash memory sticks.

    I got the ANtec P182 for £50 recently too, best case ever I have laid eyes on and touched

    The quality is so much higher that whenever I touch the old Thermaltake it feels like a thin sheet of tinfoil!

    Got to agree, the cooler master 832 is one heck of a nice case, plenty of room for everything to go in

    Clunk - I have to agree with other comments, it does look like a nice case

    Anyone what the pricing/release date is? Thanks.

    Dunno really, it is pretty standard PC-6x looking inside, just looks like a facelift model, so I would guess around 80 quid...could be miles out though

    I found a local guy selling it as he got one of those bigass front fan cases, looks like a turbine but quiet

    Just out of interest, how does the Thermaltake Armour rate? Would be one of the cases on my shortlist if it were in my budget.
