Hiya all,

Being having a few issues today with my system suddenly shutting down and an antisurge message being displayed on reboot.

currently the psu i'm using is an old old Tagan Force II 900W and i think it's starting to give up now.

I was looking at changing it anyway due to it not being modular.

At the same time i've grow tired of this Nzxt 630, i was given it for free and while it's done a great job, i can't say i'm a fan of it's looks.

So i'm looking to change this too.

System is in sig and is running highly overclocked, would like a psu that's not too expensive but can handle it, same for the case really.

My system is watercooled with two 240mm rads so the new case will need plenty of space.

Budget for both is a MAX of £200 but any cheaper would be great.

shame the new Phanteks Luxe and Pro cases aren't in stock, look like they'd get the job done.

Cheers for any advice guys.

Dave.
 
Im in the middle of buying a 1000w psu , (superflower platinum on MM). Case wise the phanteks offerings are amazing mate. Got the primo here and it has space in abundance for watercooling. The luxe was the case i was gonna get initially, but it was delayed so long i just went all in on the primo.
 
not long ago i did the same and got rid of the 630 for a primo as i was sick of draining my loop every time i wanted to take the front panel off. I would deffo recommend a phanteks case as ive found them to be allot more water friendly
 
Cooler Master HAF X Gaming Tower Case this is huge .... loads of room I know some people will say this case is to old and there are better screw free cases but this is screw free in the main and the air flow is fantastic IMO, when this arrived in the post I did OMG what have I bought as I have never had a case this big before but I have not looked back in fact 3 of my friends have swapped there systems into the case after seeing it.

I think you either love it or hate it :)

As for a PSU I am sure a good 850w should be enough
