    My next case is going to be a lower end chenbro server case. Very plain looking (wich I kinda like anyway), but very functional, sturdy, and not too expensive.

    thing is the tsunami has 120mm fans. to me the coolermaster although very well made is a dated design that still uses 80mm fans.

    the tsunami's fans arent that quiet tho, id recommend 7 volting them thb.

    Yes, but when will we be able to finally buy one?
    And how much did they change the design after it got all the good reviews?

    im also looking for a case with a window so i can show off my bits . Tsunami looks nice, think il go with it unless people actually know of a legit reason why not to get it. Wavemaster is nice but want a window

    I've looked at the Tsunami at Novatech and thought it was made out of tinfoil!

    It seems that its not got the same build quality as other cases and just looks cheap inside and cheap panels.

    For the same price the Eclipse 62 blows it out of the water and then some! Honestly the quality feel is soo much better and you can get a window panel for it.

    Thermalrake cases imho are cheap and look tackier than their equivilant model ie CM Wavemaster or even the CM Stacker and TT Stacker clone

    the eclipse looks pretty awful, i want the case to look good aswell as having all the features. Wavemaster seemed the one until i realised no window, tsunami then did until i keep hearing mixed reviews of it!!

    AHHHHHHH!

    Far too easy, get a window kit.

    Theres a place (not sure if I can say where here) that sells UV acrylic which you can then cur to size. Get some acrylic beading from Maplins or something then you can make a custom window, or even has several small windows.

    Have you thought about a stacker?
    as long as you have the space, its a pretty future proof case, with more than enouhg space, and i think it looks pretty mean as well. You can get a window for it, and it can have 3 120mm intake fans plus a special crossflow fan to cool the mobo, also comes in blue and silver.



    p.s Hi all, its my first post.
