Lexa vs Aurora???

[ChillazWorld]

I need to decide on which one to get

NZXT Lexa: http://www.tech-rank.com/ste/html/modul...PagEd&file=index&topic_id=3&page_id=27

or

Gigabyte 3D Aurora: http://www.bjorn3d.com/read.php?cID=810

which would u get?

I would personally choose the Gigabyte case, for the two reasons of: better airflow, and better looks IMO. I've never understood what people see in that Nzxt case, unless they are facinated by large shiny objects.

Yea, I wish it had a side window though, thats why I was looking at the NZXT case

If you are comfortable using simple tools like a drill, jigsaw, and a dremel, it is not hard at al to add a custom plexi side window. I'm a member over at http://www.casemodgod.com and there are some great tips and people over there to help you out if you want to add your own window.

I have a drill but I dont have a jigsaw or dremel, plus Id probably screw it up somehow. So far im leaning towards the NZXT

hands down i would pick the Gigabyte Aurora case. Better in terms of overal performance and at the same time, i think it looks nicer.

Read the review on the NZXT at www.madshrimps.be/, you'll find it in the case section.

Kind of futuristic looking in a retro kind of way.

The Gigabyte 3d Aurora has a windowed version, not sure if this is what you were hoping for instead of the mesh side panel.

yea I picked it up, I couldnt find the windowed version at the pc stores around me but it turns out you can screw out the mesh on the side panel. I might just buy some plexi and use that
