Which case?

[c42]

Which case would you guys go for? I can get a good deal on a Super Lanboy, and also a PC-65, but not sure which one to go for.

I like the Lian Li, but it only uses 80mm fans, where as the Super Lanboy uses 120mm fans, front and rear.

This will be stacked on top of a Vapochill LS.

the lian li will look very nice. also a well built case (ive heard)

[c42]

Ahh :banana::banana::banana::banana: well they are out of stock =\. Damn it

Don't get a lan boy, a friend told me they are horrible and I caught a reviewer mentioning they didn't like the quality of them. Silverstone and Lan Li are both very good. I've also heard good things about the Thermaltake Shark. Personally, I won't settle for anything less than a case built like a tank. Just look around this area of the forum, and you'll find some good reading. :)

My Lian Li PC61 OWNS - its pretty much the same as a PC65 just diff color

[HighLife]

Coolermaster or LL.....i have a Coolermaster Praetorian and LOVE IT

[MarilynMX]

CM stacker or LL V2000 if you want dual 120mm fans

[Disposibleteen]

ive heard good things about the CM cavalier and i have one on order for my water cooling system im trying to put together

[D_o_S]

CM Stacker rocks! I have one myself and its the best case I have owned!

[Disposibleteen]

yea a friend of mine has a Stacker, i think the only bad thing is that everyone has them now...

[HighLife]

Stackers are awesome.....any Coolermaster is great. I really prefer them to LL.

[c42]

Yea, but you have to remember I need it to be able to fit on top of a VapoChill LS, a stacker has the mobo sitting higher up than a mid tower, and it might not reach.

Also would like to try and keep it below 130 shipped if I can.

Go with the Lian-Li. The quality on those cases is second to none and it just oozes class. The lanboy is a interesting case but looks cheap IMO.

[jopers1986]

you can get the stacker on scan.co.uk for £120 with a window which is the best i've found, i might wait out for the stacker 2 to come out but will probs go for one of the other stackers

What about a Antec p160 it has 2x 120 mm but its a beauty with a LS.

Lian-Li. My PC65B should be coming in soon for my mach1, and it'll look awesome! :). Definetly Lian-Li though, i've seen the lanboy in person, my friend has it...it's not very good.

[total_assault]

def go with the lain-li if you got phase-change cooling why are you worried about the fans so much?

[Aphex_Tom_9]

if you got phase-change cooling why are you worried about the fans so much?
video card, ram, mosfets, north/southbridge, HD's...

[DamienKC]

Yeah, fans aren't ONLY made for cpu's ;). I'm modding mine to stick a fan over the mosfets anyways...they have heatsinks too.

[Doombringer]

CoolerMaster Stacker or SilverStone.. :toast:

[Hombre]

Lian Li PC75, you can get it silver or black. Goes perfectly well with a Vapochill LS.
The CM Stacker is good, but ugly.

[jopers1986]

i think the stacker looks nice, maybe a little plain!
does need to have lots of drive in it tho, i'm gettin a stacker and plan to have 7 drives :D

Try looking around...go to a few computer stores. In fact, look them up in the yellow pages. The smaller ones will have the more exotic cases. Look for what you like, what fits your style. It may be the best case in the world but if you look at it and can't stand it, what's the point?

Call me fooked up, but I went with a Koolance PC2-650 cause I loved the look of it. Water cooling in it sucks...but I'll just be using it for the RAM and my HDs. I'll be doing some phase change chilled water on the CPU and GPUs. But I just love the look of the case.

Don't buy just from a picture...go find one, pick it up, open it, take it as far apart as the store will let you...sleep in the damn thing. Just make sure it's what you want and what you like.
