Antec Titan 650

[sahjin]

Hi

I was thinking about gettting this case for my new pc.. but will i be able to fit a normal motherboard in it or not ?

Thanks

 

[sahjin]

Come on please answer this... i would really like to know

Thanks (if you answer that is)

well its basically the 550 with a new PSU so it should.

 

[sahjin]

yeah but will the case fit normal components such as a normal motherboard ?

Thanks

Sure it will. Why wouldn't it? It's an ATX case so it'll take ATX parts. Heck, you could even squeeze an eATX mobo in it.

The dimensions it can handle are 30.5 x 33 cm

 

[sahjin]

ok cool thanks a lot.. hey do you think that a 8800gts will fit in ?

Thanks

 

[BillytheImpaler]

I reckon it would as the case seems pretty spacious. I can't sy for sure, mind you.

 

[sahjin]

yeah well thanks so much for your help (and quick responce, but it did take a bit ), what do you think about the case do you like it and do you think that i should get it.. i am on a pritty tight budget..

 

[BillytheImpaler]

Visually it doesn't do much for me. I'm thinking you could probably do a little better. What sort of rig is going in it and how much are you looking to spend?

 

[sahjin]

well my budget it 400-500, maybe bit more but not much.. i was thinking of using components from my pc now such as core 2 duo and dvd drive, hard drive etc, but get new motherboard such as Asus p5b deluxe and 2gb memory

 

[BillytheImpaler]

400-500 !

You could get a hell of a lot better case than that Antec for that kind of dough. How about a Silverstone Temjin TJ09?

 

[sahjin]

yeah but with that at £150 then power supply, memory, motherboard i think that i am going to go way over 400-500 am i not ?

 

[BillytheImpaler]

This is what I'd get if I were you:

If the V1000 doesn't do it for you a Lian-Li PC-7 would do nicely as well.

EDIT: I'm liking my new V1000 very much.

TJ09 with window £175ish, Corsair 620W PSU £100, P5B-D £120, 2gb ram £110ish. So around £500, cheaper if you go for the 520W PSU

 

[sahjin]

yeah but you are forgetting.. what about the GTS ? that will send it £600+ and my budget is 500

Ah, I didn't realize you didn't have the card yet as you didn't mention needing it above. Let me go retool.

 

[sahjin]

sorry for not mentioning.. hey i don't mind lots about the look of the case.. a window is not that nesserary if it is going to cost me £50 more... also i want to overclock so bear that in mind as well

Thanks

 

[BillytheImpaler]

This should do nicely:

It's a hair over budget but is quite good.

 

[sahjin]

yeah looks good, thanks.. hey i will more than likley need a new cooler such as a arctic cooler freezer 7 pro.. do you think that this will overclock quite good ?

Thanks again

If you're currently on the stock retail cooler an AC Freezer 7 Pro would do nicely to cut down overclocked temps. I have one on an E6300 @ 3.2 GHz in a PC-7 and it's quite quiet with load temps around 45C.
