So I'm doing a new build and I narrowed it down between four different case. Which one should I get?

I like number 3....number 2 is the same as number 1 (I think)

steamwhistle · 11-01-2009, 10:54 PM

Your first two links are the same. I would go with which ever one gives you the most air.

k, I still like 3

cashd00d · 11-01-2009, 11:31 PM

I'm voted for the NZXT. I don't know why, I just like it.

mythamute · 11-01-2009, 11:31 PM

i like 3 the best too, its all personal so its really up to you they all seem the same

GUITARGUY · 11-02-2009, 03:48 PM

Well, so far the tally says that I should get the first case or the third (there a two votes for each of those and one vote for two and four).

Eronus · 11-02-2009, 05:46 PM

I wouldn't go with any of them personally, I'd go with an Antec 900 or 1200 or a nice Lian Li: Lancool case (all have the same basic build)

Here's a break down

1. Has 8 Fans which is a good thing obviously. I personally don't appreciate the door panel, it feels like it'll be flimsy as all doors are. It looks like too much plastic.

2.Apevia is way to weak, no rigidity(Owned several cases). Has 4 fans which isn't bad. Also looks too plasticy.

3. Has 3 fans, looks large, also looks cumbersome, I like fans on top and on the door, it gives good exits for air flow. For the price you can definitely find a way better deal.

4. Has 4 fans Looks big enough, has a top air vent which is nice, as well as door fan. If I'd have to choose any of them it'd be this one.

2 is sexy.

I'll marry it

game219 · 11-02-2009, 06:08 PM

well if its design your looking for then 3.
but if you want design & efficenty
no.3 but hook it up with a liquid
nitrogen cooling system. =D

Just kidding.

scubasteve007 · 11-02-2009, 06:16 PM

#3 looks bad ass with lights and water cooled system

meyer · 11-04-2009, 02:12 PM

I suggest you to buy the number 3 or number 4.
Thermaltake is a very good brand and i like the design =P

OG Maverick · 11-04-2009, 02:38 PM

I'd go with number 1. Looks pretty good and I like the fans.
