I'm lookin' to upgrade my case. Currently I have the Gigabyte 3d aurora, which I think is abit too flimsy and vibrates like hell when my hard drive goes off.

So I'm after the case which you guys think is best out there. Money isn't really a problem aslong as it doesn't reach stupid prices like 250+. It needs to be quiet, has loads of room (at least to fit a 8800 GTX nicely), really good cooling and black :).

Currently I have my eyes on the Antec P190 but I haven't heard much talk about it. Hopefully some of you guys can tell me why I should/should not purchase that case.

Cheers,

Ok seriously now..Can comeone PLEASE tell me why the V1000 is recommended so high? Apart fro the fact it can fit water cooling in it nicely...

It really isnt that good =/

Indeed, you really isnt that good at speeeling is you? ;)

I echo what hp7909 said, changing the v1000 for either a v1200 (longer, more space) or v2000 (insane case)

Yeah alrite, cheeky sod.
 
I did, im tired, and im at work so i dont have firefox installed.

Back on topic anyway, most people suggest the Akasa Eclipse as its a good alrounder. Just depends if you like the look of it or not.
 
i have a v2100plus (just because couldnt find a v2000 at the time) it is going to stay in the family for a long time. It is big enough for watercooling inside, and comfortably fits anything inside. I would prefer it to have another fan at the front, but you can get Hdd bays for that i spose.
 
The P190 is a good case, but the PSUs inside arn't as good as you'd expect. Drop me an email if you want more info on it (my site is down so can't link to our review). I actually have one that I don't want so I am sure we could sort out something.
 
Thanks for the replies guys. Some of the recommended cases have been out for a while. I was wondering if theres and upcomming cases that are worth waiting for?

Antec & Lian-Li released new cases recently.

Also, the recommended cases which have been 'out for a while' are the best ever despite age & new ones just can't compete :)
