I cant decide between these 2 cases. The 1200 has come down in price so now im reconsidering my order. What should i go for guys?
 
I have a Antec 1200 and i cant say enough about how good that case is, the Fans are all very quiet even when full on quieter than my P182 and cooler, tons of space and many good ideas, drive cages with fans on them to draw air over them, adjustable fans on the front by dials, switches easily accessible on the back to adjust the fan speed, overall a good case with plenty of cooling and space.
 
great thanks guys ill go with the coolermaster seeing as it is a bit cheaper and has great cooling. would love to max out the cooling with 10 Akasa Apaches or some other expensive fans :D
 
Left Side Cooling: 1 x 80mm Fan - put me off straight away, always too loud and not effective

With the 1200 the 200mm fan should be set to medium speed as slow couldn't blow up a plastic bag (still quiet atleast)
 
of course :D

it is my first ever build so wont max out fans at first. it will cost about 100 quid to do that! :(

but i will at some point! going in it is:
Asus P6TD, i7 930 cooled by a Venomous X with 2 Apaches, 6GB Kingston HyperX, Sapphire 5870 Vapor-X, and a Corsair HX 750w. Cant wait! will be buying in about a month though when i have finished sorting some other bits out. but i will make a thread about it at some point and take a few piccies. will be fun and ive been a member of this forum for a few months so i have had loads of great advice. but during this stage of choosing what parts to buy there is a lot of umming and ahing about what to go for. thanks again for advice ;)
