As per the title, I am currently awaiting doing my build because the case has not arrived. It's still not in stock, I was contemplating cancelling the order and ordering an alternative case, for the price, the storm stryker seems pretty good VFM to me.

Would anyone recommend anything else that will offer what the storm stryker will in terms of cable management, space and general build quality?

Thanks

i have the storm trooper (same case just black and without a window) and i dont find it that good for cooling imo.

a lot of other cases support better cooling options and watercooling support

NZXT cases are well worth a look, im currently looking at a source 530 (full tower for £80!)
 
whats your budget? im guessing you want a large window?

the phantom 630 is highly recommended, also NZXT offer a window panel for it aswell (same window as the switch 810)

switch 810 is very good also, a lot of watercoolers on here use that case
 
Not getting the Stryker because it's white to be honest so colour doesn't matter too much. Budget I'm flexible to be honest. Thanks guys any other ideas?
 
Would it be worth investing in a 900D, it will last me for years and allow me to upgrade to watercooling in the future or is it a bit overkill?
 
Get the Corsair 540 Air, i had a Stormtrooper and recently upgraded to Phantek Enthoo Primo. Stormtrooper / Stryker is a great case with nice features and air cooling was ok but im headed towards full custom loop.
 
I have a storm trooper, beautiful case i find the cooling to be all-right, my gfx card does get to 50-60 degrees just by watching a youtube vid, but then again it is a 290.

What are you looking for in a case? that might help narrow it down
 
I'm looking for one that is top quality, not going to have to replace it if I want to watercool in the future and ideally want it to last for a good few years.

Performance is key too, side window would be great and cable management is essential.
 
Ideally I'd get the 750D but it's out of stock so will give me the same problems and I'm looking to get something arranged for mid-week next week. The only other thing that really grabs my attention is the 900D but it's 300 quid! I'm not saying I don't have the money and I could get it at a stretch however the cost is pretty substantial.

Has anyone tried one of the cm storm scout 2 advanced? i loved the original, the handle is an amazing asset for lans.
 
really appreciate it guys, going to watch some videos of the suggested cases and I will have to make my mind up in the next couple of days.
 
Awesome, going to watch some videos. Best way to make my mind up!

Thanks again, so close to getting this thing built.
