Can someone recomend a case.

It will work - biggest plus besides price is the airflow. Since your not looking at building a rig that will also cook your eggs in the morning with the heat it makes - thats a good basic case. Be watchful on internal mountings - I have used this case before and its solid - but does lack some internal dampening features. The front airfilter needs to be cleaned regularly - and make sure you have the included fans pushing air OUT.

I was going to purchase the Antec Nine Hundred (1200 a bit too expensive) but I couldn't get one locally so I just got the Thermaltake V9, not bad design & looks ok, price was good but very flimsy, this seems to be the problem with most low end cases today!!

I might save some more and get the 900 later!!

Not bad, a full tower would be great, certainly keep things a lot cooler!

Is the side windowed, a little hard to tell?

That seems a good case. But beware with the PSU cables not being too short. Also, the PSU is one of the things that heats up more, so you'll need a good airflow if you dont want your graphics card and your CPU to breath all that warm air.

Reece · 11-25-08, 07:33 AM

So fo the guy who has everything this case cooler is a must and the price is modest too!

I use this for power :http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...371&CatId=2535

This for cooling :http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...9140&CatId=499

I don't plan on building another Rig for along time but, will always be a slave to upgrades. :p :rotfl:
