The Obsidian 800D thread :D

Unless you're water cooling I would never ever buy one and looking at your sig I don't think you are...(but if you are, they are great)

Yep, you're right, just air cooling here. I like how roomy it is in there. The TJ-10 is similar in layout, but Silverstone didn't make it nearly as easy for cable-management. I've got my setup as clean as I can, with wrapping wires around behind the motherboard, but it's still not as clean as I'd like it. The 800D looks like a dream to work with in relation to wire management.

Mostly, the TJ-10 doesn't leave enough space behind the motherboard and the right case panel to get all wires wrapped around behind. The side panel bulges horribly if I do. Otherwise I do like my current case. Again, I can't justify purchasing another full tower, just for the ease of wire management. But if I do come across some extra cash, it may be on the list.

What's the build quality like on the 800D, though? I've found the TJ-10 rattles at times because of flimsy aluminum used in places.

If you're asking me I don't know but if it's anything like thier 650D, I am satisfied (and I am very picky about quality of cases) It's about on par with Antec's cases when it comes to build quality. I had a TJ-10 once too and I didn't like it all that much (sorry) maily due to flimsy aluminum just like you pointed out. Cooler Master cases are the worst of them all with quality control...
