    Full tower at 150$?

    Hello everyone

    Currently I have a midi one (more than 10 years, I cut holes in the chassis to mount the PSU)and the noise is driving me crazy. I want to buy a full tower.

    At 150$ what tower would you suggest?

    Thank you

    I think the TJ06 is nice (if you can find one). I payed $110 for mine. It has a unique inverted atx set up.

    The HAF is also a very nice option.

    What do you need to get out of your new case? How many hdds / optical drives? only atx mobo? Air cooling only or future expansion for water cooling?

    +4 to HAF
    ePOWER EP-2000P10-T3 REVIEW at www.newegg.com

    Pros: Powering my computer along with my air conditioner and my refrigerator, and I used it to jump start my truck once.

    Cons: The only problem was the FBI at my door saying something about knocking out power for the east coast...not sure what thats about.

    +5 HAF but the Chiefton Dragon also looks quite nice. May have to look at that one for my water cooling rig, heck of a lot cheaper than the Corsair 800D.

    in the FS section here there is a amazing Mountain mods case for like $180ish and its worth much much more closer to $400. very nice cases good airflow and the best for watercooling and you will never run out of space. Plus in the future you can buy custom panels and addons for it to.
