Need a Big Roomy Case

Drake · 25 Jul 2007 at 10:51

Hi

I recently upgraded my PSU and found out to my idsmay that the power plugs for the PCI-E graphics cards are too long and wont fit in my case... It's also pointed out I cant fit a 8800 in which I wanted to get soonish.

So I need a new case idealy one that isnt far over the £100 mark has has LOADS of internal space, my current case is a Lian-Li S80 and is very well built and looks good but horribly cramped and I've never been able to keep the cables tidy ect.

Anyway quick suggestions would be much appreciated as I cant rebuild my PC without buying a new case.

Looking at a VA8003SWA atm in Fan Cooling setup.

If space is what your after then an Akasa Eclipse is a good bet, or a black Enlight 8950 (£88), or alternatively the cream ones can be had for £13 new.

akasa eclipse tbh, massive things but at the same time not so tall you struggle to find a home for it (especially if you have a cheap desk

)
