Well basically I am in the market for a new case and I've got a few i'm thinking of but finding it hard to decide which ones have the best cooling.

I have 4 120mm case fans lying around that will be able to go into this too btw.

CM CM-690 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-177-CM&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=

Antec 900 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-065-AN&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat= (Bit worried as a I keep my tower on floor and heard it was a hoover)

Lancool K-58 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-004-LN&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat= (with added sidepanel)

Thermaltake V9 - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-105-TT&groupid=701&catid=7&subcat=

So what do you guys think is the best value for money with the best cooling? :D
 
I can only coment on the cm690 as it's the only one i've had of the four. It's a fantastic case for the money. Good cooling well built and worth every penny. If the v9 is anything like the m9 i had from thermaltake then it will be poorly built with rubbish cooling.

Mine advise is the cm690 you can not go wrong.
 
if its on the floor you want removeable dust filters. The 900 defo doesnt have them so avoid.

The k58 is the blinged down version of the k62 that i have and thats a cracking case. Get some fans mounted in the top and its a wind tunnel.
 
I've got a CM690 at the moment and can heartily recommend it. I've come from a run of Antec cases and i'm not sure I'd go back. I like the features and build quality of the CM case more.
 
Hmm, thanks for the information guys, now a more direct question about the PK-58/62. Do you think the 62 is worth the price increase? Does it just give pretty LED lights and a windowed side panel or does it provide superior cooling?

Might stretch the budget if its worth it.
