The New Cases Gallery

is that a custom side panel/window?
Looks nice, not a fan of the grills though, would much prefer a clear/smoked acrylic :p
 
yours looks a bit tidier than mine andi

but still i'm very happy with the case.

Some how managed to fit

2 240 mm rads and and all my water cooling.
 
Not yet seems like a waste considering it's on the floor, would like a bigger desk so i might consider it then.

I'm a little annoyed the res is mm too big for the fascia as I'd like it to be flush going to mod the removed panel and stick it back on around the res i think.

Got the fan controller hidden behind the top fascia.

Was a bugger to bleed and a bugger to put together Definitely needs more 90 degree fittings but I made do with what I had. If i was to re do it I would probably mount a tube res on the pump like (ek 140CSQ) and mount it on the back of the front rad. Would also get smaller rad's the SR1 is passive lol and the front has two GT 1850 at about 900 rpm

Peaks at just under 70 degrees idles around 40 which for a full WC card and chip at 4.5 oc isn't bad.

Been meaning to post pics of my new build. Specs are in my sig.

The picture that has no case lights is how the case looks like turned off. Sure it takes a few watts 24/7, but I like it :)

Very nice TNA. I was just about to buy that case, but fell in love with the Corsair Carbide 540 High Airflow case coming Aug. Once everything is installed I'll put up pics.

Your case looks so sexy.

You haven't noticed? :confused:

Most motherboards these days come with large heatsinks but are coated instead, take for example the Asus ROG series.

No motherboard has that much heatsink in the past 3 years. Drunkenmassacre's are gigantic. It nearly covers most of the PCB.

Even my Asus ROG doesn't have that much heatsink.

Hey thanks man, and to everyone else who commented.

Yeah the Corsair Carbide 540 does look like an interesting case. Did you get bored of your case already? You had it like 6 months now? I will be keeping this case for 2-3 years or more I think.

Yes mate I get bored of cases quickly. I like to change once a year if I can, but this new carbide 540 is the case I've been looking for my whole life. It's the best design I've seen next to the Phantom 820 of course:D
 
Well the wave master had only 80mm fans, 2 on the front 1 in the back. I cant remember how warm it got but I had 2 6800gt cards and I bet you could have fried a egg between them, so much so, I ended having to put a 120mm fan on the side of the case to keep the cards cool...

The wave master had only 1 thing going for it, it looked damn nice

Man, haven't seen a CM wavemaster in ages had a build in one years back (silver) had tiny winey fans in it.

In terms of keeping cases as I ditched the CM Wave, still have a Jeantech Aqua case downstairs in the closet, looking back at it such a strange design with the butterfly wing doors.
