i was going to buy the antec 900, because i will be OCing, but i am having a hard time, when hearing about that cable managment horror. :eek:

SO......

are there any sub £100 cases that implement good cooling and cable managment, and also have a side window.

nothing too fansy eg xblade, but then again nothing plain. the plainest i would go to would be a p180
 
Akasa Eclipse 62 + side panel window. Might go a few quid over on OcUK but you can always look around and find it cheaper maybe.

or

Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS + side panel window




Akasa Eclipse 62 is the best of any world. :)

the eclipse seems very good, but i just cant stand its ugliness...

and the PC7 is too plain.

what about the p182, how is that?

is there a side window for that case? because the original doesnt come with one :(
 
You can buy windowed versions of the original p180 *somewhere* but they are well over £100. You might consider checking out the Gigabyte 3d Aurora (either original or the 570 version) as it seems to get good reviews. I'm not sure if the ugly front or LED's will put you off however :)

EEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

yeah, both do, i like LEDs, but EEEWWW

PS i herd the mini 182 is coming out soon (which is normal (mid tower) size), maybe thats on the cards.

if only they could do a revision of the antec 900 that had cable management liek the p182 for the p180

I fail to see how a PC7 with a window in plainer than a P180 or P182?

And the front of the P182 doesnt look boring. :confused:

Its just a blank door that makes it look like a fridge.

where as that may be true, i find it stylish.

before, i found the x-blade styilsh (dotn ask why), but seeing the p182 in reviews mroe and more, i have begun to hate crap liek the x-blade, and begin to like these more grownup stylish cases.

the pc7 looks generic :D
 
I'd rather have generic brushed aluminium than generic fridge plastic* :p Each to their own though.


*I don't even own a PC7 any more, they are brilliant cases though.
