best or better case

[VINKRILLZZ]

hey i built my dream machine and i love every peice of it but my case is the biggest peice of junk and it cost 400 bucks..... i have the COOLER MASTER Stacker 830 Evolution
i would not recommend to my worst enemy the side panels dont go back on unless you wrestle with the for 20 minutes and the restart button broke off first time i pressed it and it shakes uncontrollably when every my hard drive is in use....

does anybody recommend a full tower case that they are in love with to put my 4000 dollar rig in ?....please..

I've heard that the Antec 1200 is coming out in March, not sure how true it is though.

Given the fact that they improved on the ever-so-successful Antec 900 to produce it, I think that it might be great for you.

:thumbsup:

yea but my video card is huge and i hate figiting and cramping in a mid tower i am really looking for a full tower....any suggestions ?

Silberstone TJ-09 or if water cooler the TJ-07

Lian Li PC-17 or PC-70 are great cases.

Besides being able to house your system what are your main concerns?

NZXT Zero? Although that is rather like the Stackers...

Nah, if you want a smaller stacker check out the Ll PC17B! I really want one.

Perhaps the Silverstone Temjin 5 or Kublai 3. And the XClio Windtunnel or Tagan Obelisk (same case) - with these you have to set up your other cooling to work with a side draft instead of a normal front to rear airflow. And lots of folks like the Gigabyte Aurora 3D 570. I can't see the point of over $200. cases - at that point they are selling something other than case and whatever it is, I don't need it.

Could you direct me to the PC17B? Google hasn't produced any results for me.. :\

I just got the Lian Li PC-A70B and it is great. It doesn't have the inverted mainboard configuration of the V series (I had a 1200 Plus II before this) and the room and airflow is fantastic. The workmanship is up to Lian Li standards. There are lots of other good cases but it would be hard for me to go with anyone else at this point.

The PC-A17B is not in the channel in the US as yet. Well it seems a few places have them now: SundialMicro and Newegg - have some salts on hand for the prices...

omg... if the internal is 4000 dollars do some justice..

Lian Li 343B - Modular Cube Black

or

Lian Li V2000 series

or

SilverStone TJ-07 or 10

MountainMods U2 or Horizon


If you never owned a mountain mods b4, it will be a very BIG treat. expecially the horizon series.

However the only downside is you get kinda bored of it fast. Afterall its a cube.
