    A New Case

    I've almost finished updating my PC. Now for the case to hold everything! I've been looking into this one for a few weeks now. It has a huge 230mm fan on the side, basically covers the motherboard, and 120mm fans on the front and back. I've seen it working in PC World, ands its next to silent what do you think?

    oh yeah, plus it lights up blue (my fave colour )

    Re: A New Case

    It definitely isnt the best case you can get for £50. Generally these big side fans dont make much difference to cooling, often they interupt the flow of air from front to back. You might notice a difference if you use a top down cooler but if its a tower it will only be a hindrance. Id recommend the coolermaster CM690, its a bargain at the price and well made with good cooling:

    Re: A New Case

    The antec 900 has been a recommendation from many people for a while now, it is a very good case and gives great cooling. Personally i dont really like the styling and i think the coolermaster is better value.
