right so i need to decide between these 3 cases, can someone help me?

i need 1 dvd drive and 1 3.5" card reader drive, do any of these come with a 3.5" adaptor?

will they fit a 4850 xfx?

is the croff flow fan made for the sgo1 and the carry bag worth ther price? and do they work with the sg02? and is the cross flow fan noisey?
 
I believe the Lian-li comes with an adapter, but you can buy one for the silverstone cases and theyre not expensive.

A 4850 should fit in any of those just fine.

Crossflow fan should work with either SUGO1/2 and I never found it particularly noisy, but it wont fit if you have a large CPU cooler in there.

You might struggle with the CNPS8700 - they pull air down onto the CPU while your PSU will be trying to pull the air up through it causing static air just over your CPU and causing a LOT of head.

If your PSU doesn't have a fan on the bottom, then you'll be ok, otherwise look for a heatsink with a fan that can be flipped over to pull air up, or remove it...
 
I would go for the V351B if I were you. It looks the nicest and is well thought out, bar a few tiny niggles, like when you need to fit a particularly large heatsink before sliding the mobo tray in. Solution is do it when it's in.

You also get a 3.5" adapter iirc, and the case can take large cards pretty easily whilst leaving a fair bit of flexibility. It's also quite moddable if it's anything like the V350.
 
I'm going to go for a 351 for my new htpc build. I prefer the clean looking front.

Don't know whether to go silver to match my amp or black for sexyness.

well i want to use the CNPS8700 zalman cooler

No it definately wont fit with that ive tried myself.

NT06-E is probably a better choice, I have one with a fan modded underneath blowing up and it does a supreme job of cooling my quad, but the crossflow fan wont fit in with that either :S

Have both but I'd deffo go with the V350 (V351B same case minor cosmetic changes)

Sugo give a nice thick slab of ali on the front but the outer casin is flimsy & cheap, need to use a thicker gauge in my opinion (internals is good tho)
 
+1 for the V351B

I have the V350B and it is such a nice case. has two 120mm fans at the front cooling the case with an 80mm at the back. It's near silent great for cooling and will fit a 4850 or two without a problem.

Also the removable motherboard tray makes installing really easy :)
