New case needed

Rensin · 24 May 2016 at 14:28

Hi,

My main use for my PC is video encoding so would prefer a case with decent airflow. Currently use a Corsiar 650d so only 1 intake fan at the front.

I don't need any space for hard drives or optical drives as only have 2x SSD currently installed.

I was looking at the Corsair 540 but have read that the case itself is flimsy/cheap.

Any recommendations?

I haven't seen an Air 540 myself, but from most people to be honest I have only heard praise as it seems to be an excellent case. If you like the 540 I'd go for it, perhaps better if an owner can give some advice/insight?

yeah for the system in my sig.

Depends on your budget, but as you say the 540 is a bit tacky looking.

my budget probably £150-200. I don't mind the look of the case but read that the structure of the case isn't very strong. Plus read most of the case is plastic.

Will go searching for the 540 owners thread.
