my antec P182 case is now housing my old system which is running a debian based server and I am thinking of building a new gaming pc in the new year and cannot decide if its best to buy cheap atx case and reuse the P182 for the new buld or just get a new case altogether? have cases come on a lot since those I have been very happing with the cooling and acoustic properties of it and the budget for new case will probably be sub £80. I can get cheapo case for £20 andjust add usb3.0 to antec?

what would you do?
 
I'm still using my Coolermaster ATCS 110, think I've had it about 11 years now :D

At £255, that was a month's wages when I was in school :D
 
Still use mine

However its not really good with dual gpu setups. Todays gpus produce less heat so you should be able to get away with a single good card probably not with 2

I have always been a single gpu in the past and now days my gaming time is limited due to having a young family I am tempted to just build small mid range box and and replace regularly rather than big investment on super spec. To be fair my steam list should mean I dont need to buy any new games for years and upgrade for a while, lol but I know what a sucker I am for new stuff!


might change the fans what do you recommend for quiet fans? and do I need a fan controller? have about PSU would you say replace my seasonic 650w with something new?
