I like the wavemaster so much because of its looks but is it small inside?Also how is the cooling since it doesnt have but one place for a fan.

If you want a good solid case with tons of rep get a Lian Li 6x. By far the best / most reliable cases on the market :)

Here's some ASPIRE cases, I've had good luck with their other products, plus I think they just look neat. Can you tell I like black and silver? :D

gross!!!! do not get a premodded case!!!

they are poorly built and not well designed. The x-dreamer i have....i have to force the expansion cards to screw in, and the fan holes and built in grills are extremely poorly designed. with 28dba fans and a quiet cpu fan ( can go less than 28dba), it sounds like train.

here is a good case

comes with a nice psu too. 2x intake and 2x exhaust. high quality. you can add a window with a fan and a blowhole fan if you like too

whats wrong with trains? I can make mine sound like that....maybe need to invest in fan controller and cutting a hole for a 120mm fan...

I really wouldn't suggest a Pre-mod. As stated b4 they are usually rather badly done. If you still want it ... google some reviews :)

I think he was talking about the cases I put up. Yeah, sometimes a premodded case can be alittle odd, but sometimes there done right and look nice.

Thermaltake are usually well done pre-mods. But, read some reviews of the wavemaster and make your decision based on multi-opinons :P.

Well i started thinking and i want some room in a case for moded and maybe watercooling and i looked at the stacker case and i like it but dont like the weight but i can live with that i think because i wont be takeing my pc anywhere.I like the door on the wavemaster and i dont because if you add stuff that looks good u cant see it unless you leave the door open so i guess it doesnt really matter to me.What do you guys think, wavemaster or stacker?

The stacker will have all the room that you will ever need, its a well built clean looking case and Id get the stacker over the wavemaster if I was you
