Not sure if I'm allowed to post this.

Coolermaster NL parts store has some one off designs and colours.

Take a look.

I'm still suprised that the NL online store stocks so many parts the other various online coolermaster stores don't.
 
@ stulid not at all I just cant be bothered arguing over something so stupid.
The fact that you dismiss silverstone cases as a gwizz when most of the people on this forum know they are great speaks volumes and I'd just rather not engage with you after such an ignorant comment.

To original poster please save some more and get a corsair 800d the not being good on air is a myth I think as you can simply add a kama bay etc like most people add with a lot of cases.If I had £170 sitting around for a case I wouldn't even think twice about saving a bit more for the 800D.
I just don't think many of the cases mentioned are worth their asking price including the ft02 which I mentioned I think the ft01 is worth £134 though just about.

Everyone has a habit of bigging up the case that they own and never point out the bad parts of a case.I am guilty of it too but I do mention the bad points.Still think you'd be happy with a black fortress ft01 for £134 though imo isn't any other case out there that looks as good and performs as good for the price.

Not mentioning any names but some people just go around every spec me a case thread and recommend the one they own and dismiss other suggestions.

I referred to that nasty upside down, poor cooling case as a Gwizz.

Try learning how to read.

I read about the 800D not performing that well air-cooled here, but in saying that, I did read a few other reviews and it's supposed poor air cooling ability wasn't mentioned at all. Just thought I'd link the review anyway.
 
Yea that's just because the default fans are probably low rpm for quietness though.Pretty sure it will be up there with the best for air cooling adding own fans and kama bay etc.I'd be kicking myself if i had £170 and didn't get the 800d or wait a bit for the 700d though is all.
 
Have you read the OP?

He said no windows!

Also he's made his choice, and the correct one it is too.

Have to agree with this tbh. Most reviews don't mention the stock air cooling. As C64 said a couple of extra fans in the roof can sort it out, but for the money I'd expect it to be outstanding on air and water.
 
On every case ive owned the stock fans havent been great, i always replace them. The kama bay is an excellent piece of kit, added one to my eclipse 62 for more air intake. The 800d is a fantasic case, id have liked one as it suits both watercooling and air without major modification, with my current A70F i have to either cut the top panel myself or send it away to enable fitting a radiator.

For the sake of finding / waiting for another £39 do yourself a massive favour and get the 800D it's the case everyone wants secretly.
Or wait til end of this month and get the 700D for around £180.

If you are willing to lay down £150-£170 on a case why settle for second best go a bit further and get the best.

The price difference between a 800D and ATCS840 is £56!

You fail again!

What are you even talking about ? I am talking about the price gap between £170 and a corsair 800d which is £39.
So that is five times thus far you have pulled me up on things which you got wrong.
You need to grow up and quit whilst you are still behind.I took you off ignore to give you a second chance but you are definitely coming across as a bit of a troll tbh embarrassing yourself in this thread so far.So that is five times thus far you have pulled me up on things which you got wrong.

The coolermaster case is worth no more than £120 imo I like the case but my problem was always the hdd area not being removable in parts.It's not even thick aluminium it's flimsy with complaints of vibrations like a lot of lian lis get accused of because the aluminium is not thick enough.

Anyway I am done with this thread if he wants to listen to someone with almost 2000 posts in 2 months and recommends the case he owns in every thread going that's up to him.

I thought you had put me on your ignore list?

But you keep coming back, why is that I wonder?

RPG and MIKE GUNNZ have both said the air cooling in the 800D is not good!

Or don't real end-user experience or opinion count to you anymore?

Hardly the most secretly desired case is it.
