The best for the money is needed, cooling capabilities, size needs to be pretty big, dark colour, pref black, and will hold these parts.

Let me know what you think!

Cheers,

James.

Aluminium construction, well made, nice cooling characteristics and a nice layout.

Good all round case TBH.

Fairly similar to the Akasa Eclipse which is a very highly regarded case. :)

Better than the Antec 300? Just looked this one up, i think its a brilliant case, strongly debating getting it.

Gonna look the Lian-li one up now, whats the correct spelling of the one your all bumming?

My experience of Antec cases like the 300, 900 and P180/P182's are that they are quite cramped to build in - that is pretty much the reason i used lian li for my next two builds.

The Antec's do cool well however and in the case of the P180/P182 are pretty quiet too.

Agree tottaly, but went the other way got a antec 300, really good case for £35. Fantastic cooling with 2 front fans
 
remember if you get the 300 you'll have to buy some extra fans as only some are included .

If im correct y ou get 2 with it but have space for another 3 120mm's??

What fans do people reccommend? Im wanting 3 very quiet but very air efficiant fans.

Also, the Antec mounts the PSU on the bottom of the case, is that a gd idea as heat rises dosnt it..

My cooling should be fine when it comes to that but im warey.

If your getting the 300 you may also want to consider getting these, to help with the cable routing, if your cables are short they'll end up stretching over the motherboard.

Ive put two of the Yate loon 70CFM fans in the front of mine and they move enough air without being too loud, They're not silent but not as loud as some of the fans i've tried.
you could always get a fan controller and some of the Yate Loon 88CFM fans for when you need that extra bit of air.

I was just about to start a thread on controllers, i know nothing about them but would like one especially if im spending a lot of money on them, i want to be told if a fan fails.. especially cpu and the main ones around it.

Wana open some light to this for me?
