What is cable management like?

 

[MikeTimbers]

What about a Coolermaster 590? And I've seen it may actually come with a PSU even tho it says on the site it doesn't?

 

[raptormonkey]

590 looks like a nice case. Very similar to the Antec 300!

NZXT BETA CASE

Been playing with one today in our tech department, and the price vs quality with features its a bargain. All black interior etc....

Interesting. Have NZXT finally sorted out their act? Because most of their cases are cheap, yet bad build quality (namely the Tempest) with plastic everywhere and bits falling off.

 

[raptormonkey]

That looks ugly!!

The CM690 really looks the business for the money, might go pick one up today.
My current 201 black widow is just too small with the amount of hard drives I have, I really struggle getting them in and out without pulling the MB tray out or GFX card out, so might be time to retire the old girl.

^nice case for the price ^^

 

[ShiWarrior]

well, so far, the quality is very good, im not using the cable management things, instead im using the holes in the case to my cables goes behind everything so to help with cooling

 

[petriodet]

and it looks like it could fit the largest of gfx cards.

 

[moppy89]

Hmm I might end up buying one of these instead of the Antec 300

 

[ShiWarrior]

and it looks like it could fit the largest of gfx cards.

look at page 1, someone else posed a pic with a LARGE graphics card in this case, and it still fits nicely!

my build is almost complete, just waiting for RAM and a better graphics card

CM690 is a great case, only thing i can knock is the lack of any dust filter for PSU's fan air intake area, so expect 'lots' of dust to be sucked directly into it. Well, unless you instal the PSU upside down which solved the problem for me.

Or install your own tights... i mean dust filters.

Pics of the finished thing?

Pics of the finished thing?

[Ryan111]
