A new case

ATIorNvidia · 23 Oct 2006 at 14:42

Basically ive had this case for quite a long while (used it for my other 2 computers i had too) and im now looking for a new case, becuase it has no space for fans etc , because my computer now keeps overheating so i either need a deskfan behind or have it by the window.

so im looking for a nice case for around 70-90 quid on sub

any suggestions

Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS gets my vote.

super budget - super lanboy otherwise as above LL is best bang for buck.
If neither is to your taste try the Akasa zen or Eclipse 62

Any of these four and your be very happy you splashed out on a new case.

ive just purchased a PC60 for my new intel system.

its cheap and cheerful, and hopefully will be very quiet.

Arent Lan Lis quite small tho? and has they got enough space fore a few extra fans too?

4x5.25" drives, 3 hdd, 2x3.5", 2x120mm fans, and 1x80mm fan, aswell as large grill beside pci slot probably could attach 120mm fan on there.

loads of room really what else do you need?

What is so good about this case: Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS

I am not saying it is rubbish, i genuinely want to know as i am thinking of selling my 201 and buying a different case. Will the PC-7 accomodate a Ninja Heatsink?

There are a number of things good about this case.

1. The looks. Obviously it comes down to personal taste but i love the smooth clean lines and unobtrusiveness of the case.

2. It's aluminium. I love the alloy. Nice and light and looks good.

3. 120mm fans. Its a fairly small case so the 2x 120mm fans cool very well and the larger fans also help to keep it quiet.

4. The build quality. You are getting a quality piece of engineering for a very good price. The case will last a lifetime.

I'm sure there are other things i have missed but these are the main points that are important to me.
