is it just me or is there others that get the same way?
Ive got the Phanteks Enthoo pro M I like the case but... I fancy a change..

Ive got a thing about the NZXT S340 or the Phanteks P400
I know these would mean I would need to ditch my Blu-Ray drive but my thoughts there is..

when was the last time I used it?... Months ago!!
what for?.... to burn a software CD..

I could live with a USB drive Im sure...

When I've done builds in the past I buy the case I like at the time but then after being on here looking at others project build I all of a sudden change my mind and want another case :p

I built a system up for my lad using the S340 and it is a really nice case to work with.
It also has a better dust filter on the front which I like better than the one on the front of my current case.
My only gripe with it is I could only fit 2 x 120mm fans on the front. but it is a smaller case than my current one.

the P400 I could fit 3 x 120mm fans on the front like my current case it is a bit smaller but no ODD bay.
Im not sure if the dust filter on it would be as much use as the one on the NZXT case.

I must admit... Ive looked at a few video reviews of the P400s and I really do like it..
My machine is pretty silent and this would possibly make it even more so.
I would like to know users thoughts on the dust filters if there any good. the one on the Phanteks Enthoo pro M is pretty poor as there is a gap between the fans and the filter.
dont get me wrong its not the worst but I find I need to dust it more than I would like..

when I bought my lad the S340 he had the crosshair v formula z board with the FX8350
Ive upgraded him to an Asus z97 Gryphon Armour mATX board with my old 4770k so kind of wish I had held off and got him a mATX case.

Might see about a cheap mATX case for him and stick my system in the S340..

I lack the motivation to get bored of a case lol - too much hassle migrating a system. I do like my 540 Air though not got bored of that but I am a sucker for a nice looking case and sometimes considered a whole new build just because I like the look of a case.

I like the look of the 540 but it wouldn't fit where my system sits. I would need a new desk to go with the 540....
 
picked up a white NZXT H440
Im not a lover of it but my lad likes it so hes getting the H440 and ill take his S340
This should keep me happy for a little while until I find a Fractal Design Define C

Debating changing my h440 as its just too damn hot. There lively cases but bad for airflow.

yea you are not the first person I have seen saying this.
My lads system doesnt get used as hard as mine so I thought his would be ok in the H440 but its not happening.
Think I need to find my self a Fractal Design Define C windowed case and I should be happy for a little while..

Bored of my Corsair Air 540, I will get a different case on my next build as I will downsize to Micro-ATX.

I really fancy a 540 but my desk says no :(

We should set up a case exchange for those of us afflicted with case-itis :) (though for all I know there might be one already in the members market! )
