Best Budget Case?

[Ice Rich]

One suggestion - fit your PSU BEFORE fitting the motherboard as the bar across the case will make fitting the PSU after the mortherboard has gone in difficult.

This was really good advice. If I would have fitted the board first of all it would have made fitting the psu difficult.

No problem mate - cant understand why Antec dont either (a) do away with the bar altogether or (b) make it removable. Twice in my old SLK3000B I had to change PSU and ended up removing the motherboard to do so !

Ice Rich, would you do a user review for www.yewen.co.uk ?

It would be great! there is a template in the user reviews section.

Motherboard trays can be useful but are not really that big a factor.

Centurion 530! It has the same features if not more and has the bonus of looking like a much more expensive case

Fully recomend it!

Agree 100%, got mine last week and its brilliant. Great build quality. Big 120mm blue fan at the front, and another two can be added, one at the back and one just above the CPU. Power, Reset buttons and usb/firewire/headphone ports at the top of the case, so its ideal if you want to have your computer on the ground. Good luck finding one though.

Akasa Eclipse or Lian Li pc7+

Depends if you can live with a plastic front on the Eclipse or not.

The PC-7 is a budget Lian Li!

But its still a Lian Li

Spot on, I'm sure my PC7+ was £45 (ex del). Great value for a case of this quality.
