~£85 new case - ATX

[ShivP]

Looking for a new case, can be midi-tower or full tower, I'm not particularly bothered. MUST have a windowed panel though, as it's going on my desk and gonna whack some LEDs into it I think around the ~£85 mark is the sweet spot for me - I've got 3 main options but have no idea which to get;

-Phanteks Enthoo Pro
-NZXT H440 (No optical bays though)
-Corsair 450D

Now the 450D looks the best imo, but the internals I feel aren't really comparable to the 440/Enthoo Pro, but I really like the aesthetics.

The 440 looks great also, but no optical bays so that's a -1 point from me

The Enthoo Pro is my current favourite, though I agree it looks the worst but the internals are excellent, it's a full tower so plenty of space and I may be watercooling in the future (2-4 years) so I guess it would put me in good stead.


Any other options? Anyone's thoughts?


Cheers,

I would go for the phantek enthoo pro. I'm going to buy that myself the only problem is the release date is in July

For the price it's a no brainer the features it has are of a case twice the price

+1. The Phanteks really looks amazing and for the price only Fractal offer any competition with regard to options and performance but with a lower quality and slightly lower price.

Thought so - Enthoo it is

The pro would get my vote too. Phanteks build quality is very good, and it's such a feature packed case for not a lot of money. As a primo owner i find it hard to see how they make much of a profit due to the features they employ in their cases and the price they sell them for.
