Which case to buy? :/

[ufheh123]

I am going to get:

- Athlon 64 3500+
- ASUS A8V Deluxe
- 1gb Corsair 3200
- DVD combo drive
- 160gb Western Digital hdd
- floppy drive
- 9800 pro for now, will upgrade to 6800 ultra later

I am just wondering which case i should buy, I was looking at these three:

- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-133-133&depa=1
- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-144-089&depa=1
- http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-144-007&depa=1

I just need help deciding which to get. I am mostly worried about cooling, that is why im focusing on the 120mm fan ones. Please help, thanks.

I'm partial to the tsunami but how bout you get the one YOU like the best?

 

[Edward Lee]

my vote is for the Tsunami

The other two are just plain overpriced.

Take a look at the CoolerMaster Praetorian black all aluminum case.

CoolerMaster Praetorian

Of the three listed, the Tsunami is the best IMO. If you are considering others then look at the Antec Sonata and Super-Lanboy (a bit smaller) as well as cooler masters cases (Praetorian and others)

Cooler Master gets my vote for "other"

Lian-Li PC-75B

so for around $100 the best ones are basically the Tsunami and The Praetorian. Now what is better 4 80mm or 2 120mm and a 90mm? :/

i would say the Tsunami prolly has slightly better cooling BUT i would take the Praetorian over it

My answer starts with T and ends with sunami. Can you guess what it is?

Coolermaster PRAETORIAN!

Tsunami!!!!!

i have the praetorian and it is a pretty awesome case...

however, if i were to get a case now, i would get the silverstone SST-TJ06-B case...

 

[villageidiot111]

The Tsunami is definately the best of the three in my opinion.

 

[Salvador]

They all look to be based off the same case. The Chenming cases that used to be rebadged as Enermax, Cheiftec and Antec (SX series). The original Alienware cases were built off of this case as well.

My answer would be to go with which one you like the features of and what looks best to you. I don't know that I'd want anything named Tsunami at this point though.

Silverstone makes some sweet cases..

Generally 2 120s will cool as good or better than 4 80s and be quieter doing it.

 

[Mucker]

Whatever you decide, get a case with 120mm fans. I'll never go back to 80's, ever.....
