Best case - £70

looking for a case that has decent cooling, got a couple of spare 12cm fans kicking about so support for those would be handy.

thanks.

It's a bit more than £70 but surely you could spare an extra £16.78 for the Lancool Dragon-Lord?

You can fit 120mm fans in a 140mm fan space cant you? I'm sure they have screw holes correctly spaced.

I might be able to stretch it but then i'd probably look at a HAF 922 - what does the dragon lord offer to rival the 922?

just bear in mind that a case full of holes isn't going to be quiet.

I think the 690 II is better looking than the HAF 922. I'd get the former and whack the window panel on it.

The 690 II is a lovely case - I build a PC for my grandfather a while back using this.

I was really impressed with the quality for the price and what a step up it was from slightly less costly cases.

looks like i'll be getting a 690 II, noticed some deals with the cm gx psu's which look like they'd be excellent value for money

Where can you get the window panel for it, because i think i'll do that.
