New Case needed for new build, Cooling top priority

[Hicks]

The rig in my sig, seems to be to much for my Lian Li PC-65 to handle. Now i do like the case, the build quality is awesome, and it looks great, but i can't keep it, as the temps rise 10C with the side panel on.

Looking for a new case now. Cooling is a major major factor. id also like it to look nice, and i don't wanna spend to much, say £100 max.

Looking at the Antec 900 as it seems to have excellent cooling, but whats the build like? and is it only in black? Also what size, id rather still have a midi tower, but my cooler is very close to the edge of the case at the mo and it's 220mm wide.

I use Antec P180's for most of my Kents - plenty big for your cooler (I use Tuniq Tower 120's) and has 4 x speed adjustable 120mm fans.

I also have an Antec Solo fitted with a Kent, it only has 1 x 120mm fan fitted at the rear, but you can fit 2 x 92mm fans at the front for good airflow - the case is smaller than the P180 but still big enough for your cooler.

Build quality on both are excellent.

Thanks for the reply. Forget the 900 is looks crap.

What about Lian Li's cases? I wouldn't mind spending a bit more, for a quality build case, with good cooling. I also don't want it to noisy.

yeah lianLi's are great looking cases and i have always liked the internal design of them.. maybe a v2000 if it's not too heavy on your wallet.. also coolermaster stacker STC-T01 or RC-810.. personally can't stand the looks of the newer 830/1 evo case.

Leaning towards the Antec P182. Has anyone got a Corsair 620W HX in it? worries me that the cables won't be long enough. And will my HSF fit ok?
