Another Recomend me a case thread

[baron02]

Hi Everybody

Yes sorry it another recommend me case thread. As in my sig I've got a Coolermaster Cosmos Rc1000 Revision 2 case which does have poor airflow and thermal issues.

With Fermi soon to be arriving on my door at some point in the next 2 weeks I will need to change the case for better airflow. What case would be best for the Fermi GTX470. I will be SLI them at some point this year or changing to refreshed range of fermi.

we need no what sort of style as theres loads of cases that will suit but a lot look awful

I have the A70FB myself and can certainly reccomend it, lots of storage space and will accomodate large graphics cards with ease.

Take your pick of one of the Full Tower cases.

I've owned several Lian Li's, even bought the Gf a Lian Li, and I'm really not tempted by anyhting else.

- Second to none build quality
- Good features
- Good stock Fans (not the best, but good)
- Aluminium!
- Can be modded fairly easily to taste as well

The front hdd bay cant be removed, however the 3 drive bay at the top rear can be removed. I currently only have 2 3.5 inch hdd's in mine in the front bay.

Pics of mine are in here.

Small miditower without real inside space.

A70/71FB's main HDD cage should be attached with screws and I kinda remember someone having removed it.
Consdiering your current case door equipped A71FB is well more silencing friendly than A70FB's direct noise escape path...
But considering you actually wanted Fermi noisiness probably doesn't matter.

Yeah, with the heat production of heating Fermistor that's the only really well working way.

Seems that the front hdd bays are removeable on the A70F. Must have a look on mine as well to see if it's the same.
