Large Case Needed!

Hrmm, i dont like issues. Think i have had to discount that anyway, the cost for what i need is just too much. I could sell my P160 and PC37 to find it, but i was going to keep those as spares, and just build a cheap arse computer in the Lian Li....

Ive found a place that does the Chieftec mentioned up there, be about £90 delivered which is an idea price i think.

Might take the plunge and get it ordered on Fridays PayDay :)
 
That is not a old one :p

That is practically not old enough to have gotten dusty! :p

Old main rig case, now my fileserver and has been running the same pc since 2002. Awsome case, taken a fall down the stairs and it didnt even pick up a scratch, made a hole in the wall mind!
 
No, that is THREE boxes of lego :D

Still there for easy access.

Made a rig tester out of lego, great for the moments when you need to test something out of the case, and saved me £100.

Is there nothing Lego can't do :D
 
Well, i had to settle on something else :(

Id forgotton my car tax was due this month, so could warrant spending £90 on the Cheiftec in the posts above, so i did a google and found the above. Ive had one of these before, so it should suit me me!

£42 delivered, so i didnt think that was a bad price, free delivery helps! If i dont have enough room for all my HDDs, i might either mount them in the 5.25 or sell a couple and get a larger size...

Should be here tomorrow all being well :)

Ye, i noticed that when i reread. Didnt think you'd still be able to get them, especially at this price!

I have only one reservation, im sure there is a dividing/support strut that goes across the middle of the case, stopped me last time using a decent large but quiet cooler....

Might have to get the dremel out IIRC :(
 
Only if your using SCKT A still!

SCKT A is meant to have a tiny cooler by comparisson on it, MANY / ALMOST ALL cases with say a huge heatsink on a SCKT A system wont fit.

Oh and yes I like the caps key toaday, YEH!
 
Oh so a 1/2 gen old main rig, impressive I am still using my 2500 as a machine for mates to game on :p

Duron 800 as the file server, was a dual p2 450 rig until it went BOOM!
 
Ya, i saw in a previous thread ** PSU blew. Unlucky, least it was powering a £400 CPU and taking that with it!!

I was tempted to get a cheap Dual Core Smithfield P4 + Mobo, one of OcUK competitors had it on a daily deal, Dual Core 2.66 + MSI Motherboard for £120 delivered, thought that was an excellent price.

If i had decided to get it, i would have been without a car for a month... tempting but glad i resisted!

Once the Scorpio comes, will have to sell this Lian Li PC37, great little case and in perfect Nic, just not big enuff for me now.
