Both solid choices.

The Z9 is one of the best in the range. Not the most spacious for modern GPUs (290 mm), but most will fit. Doesn't have front USB3. Other choices are the Bitfenix Shinobi, the NZXT 210, Corsair 200R.

Motherboard is good and it will fit, people here generally prefer the Z77-D3H.
 
Yeah I nearly bought that case but went with an Enermax Ostrog. Might have a crack at the Antec GX 700 which is on the site. Looks very tasty.

That's interesting. Any reason why people prefer the Gigabyte board? :)
 
Having only owned 2 cases previous to the Z9+ (antec solo & CM 690 II) This case beats both, in my opinion.

Worth every penny, and has more quality than the price suggests.
 
Wow the Z9+ beating CM 690!!! Is it really that good? I see the fan controller and other extras, but looks kind of put me off. Preffer prefer more slick one.
 
I agree the looks arent as good as other cases, but for the features at that price....

And when I say the Z9+ beats the CM690, obviously not in size, but in noise the Z9+ is better.

Using the same mech hard drives, the CM 690 rattled and hummed like it was about to take off! Nothing I could do would stop this.

Same for case fans, same 3 fans in both cases= Z9+ quieter by miles ( and always full speed)

But in the Z9+, same HDD's, not even a tiny vibration and that is enough ( for me ) for the Z9+ to beat the CM 690.
