Basically guy's I'm fed up of my Antec 902, no particular reason, I just want something different really with abit more room to work in side of maybe? I have been considering three cases really, naturally the 1200 just for the increased size but then I'm really interested in the Corsair 800D and the Corsair 600T when it gets released. I really like the look of the 600T but from the reviews I'm not sure that I would have a significant space improvement over my current 902.....

Any recomendations from you lovely people?
 
I realy like the corsair 800d so much so ive brought one myself there is just no faults with the case at all i cant find anything wrong and if you check out some of the reviews you will see what im talking about and it looks realy nice. The 600t i like the look of but from what i see theres no window on the side panel and thats a must for me i like to show off my stuff especially when its water cooled with nice uv liquid but they did say its the mid case with the room inside of a full tower. so its interesting the insides are definatly nice with good features but if money aint a factor i would defo get 800D
 
I also recently purchased an 800D as phase one for a watercooling setup and have been VERY happy with the case, the build quality is excellent and was one of the easiest installs I have ever done, the cable management behind the board is fantastic, the only thing I can say is buy replacement fans, the stock ones are rubbish and a fan controller is a must have for this bad boy.
 
As the guys have said before me it depends on whether or not you want to see inside your machine or not. If not, the 600T looks like it's going to be a great mid-tower sized case with great cable management, and room for even the biggest GFX cards.

In terms of showing off the innards, I again agree with the guys above, though the 800D is a touch pricey IMO for a case. Would rather upgrade say the GFX card!

Hope this helps.
 
the 800D is great if you are going to FILL it ... so much space that things appear smaller than they are in reality ...

..

just let that innuendo sink in and .... moving on

get a case that allows you to fit your rig comfortably and have space for future upgrades
I like the 600T, saw it today, but I prefer my 800D as it's more angular (well, it is even more angular now I've nearly sawed it's guts out !)

either way good choices
 
The 600T is no bigger than the 902.

The 800D is great for space, but the 700D is just as good, and we have a silly price on it at the mo. :)
 
I'm in the same position and decided to wait for the 600T.

I really do not need to extra space of the 700d/800d as I have a p180 mini as a home server with all the HDDs.

Just waiting for it to come in stock and read some reviews.
