Will this case fit the Noctua NH-D14? Is it worth it over the 800D? Does it have good cable management? How heavy will it be after i fill it with stuff? :p

its so hard choosing a case... :(

BTW i wont be watercooling. since i am on air should i go for a different case?

thanks,

Jake

It has reasonable cable management but nowhere near as good as many newer cases with pre cut holes. I had to mod the motherboard tray to help with routing.

It is pretty light given its size, but if you're sure you won't be water cooling then there are better and cheaper options which offer good cable mgmnt.
 
The TJ07 is best with a nice water setup inside. As other have said to get the best cable routing you do need to do a bit of modding to the other board tray. Saying that though the newer TJ07 comes with a big hole in the mb tray to help with cables. Though without modding you can get it pretty tidy and good enough so it isnt going to hamper air flow too much, just if you really want to hide the cables you gotta cut a few holes. But if your not buying the solid panel then i guess that doesnt matter too much to you.

Imo the TJ07 is one of the best looking cases out there makes the 800D look butt ugly in camparison.

Both are quite large cases though, if you just running air cooling do you really need much a large case?
 
thanks for opinions guys but i have moved away from the idea of getting one. like you said, it is probably too big for just air cooling. im now looking at Lian Li, Silverstone and Coolermaster.

The Coolermaster CM 690 Advanced II case looks good. Might be out of stock at the mo on OCUK. Not too big not too small. Nice paint job on the interior as well.
