Afternoon all,

I'm looking to replace my Coolermaster Cosmos 1010 with something more watercooling friendly. I have in a box at home a Laing DDC 18w pump, 120.2 radiator, 5.25 resevoir, d-tek cpu block etc ready to go again but i want to get a better case as when i did it in the cosmos it was very tricky.

I'm torn beetween the HAF932 and the TJ07-BW from Silverstone. My question really is, is the TJ07 worth the extra £80-£100 quid?
 
The only advantage the Silverstone has for me is that the water cooling fit would look a lot neater and be out the way when you're doing other stuff with the internals with most of it being hidden out the way in the separate compartment, the HAF would provide superior air cooling though if you ever did switch back to air. Looks are subjective but i perfere the look of the HAF (i have one) as the Silverstone looks bland and boring to me.

If you're serious about watercooling, the TJ07 is definitely the better choice.

The HAF looks like it fell out of the ugly tree and got hit by the ugly stick 73962 times anyway.

Too true

TJ-07 is gorgeous but now every man and his dog has one
 
Having never seen either in real life i cant comment, however i have to say going off pictures alone i think i prefer the Coolermaster ATCS 840, it looks like a very nice case but with enough going on at the front to keep me interested.
 
there's a reason the t07 is popular its a good case and easy to mod. the only coolermaster case ive had and liked was the cm690, i had a stacker 832 and it was a pile of poo.
i was going to get a cosmos-s until i saw one and realised how much plastic was on it.
if going air cooling get the HAF, but if you want to watercool get the t07.
 
I have just rebuilt my rig into a HAF 922 but looking around different forums etc. my next project in a year or so will be a new I7 (or whatever is about then) build into a TJ07 and a first attempt at water cooling. It looks a superb case!
