I have been reading the forums for a few weeks now and decided I would like confirmation from a few of you as to which to go for.

I am looking at getting either:

Akasa eclipse 62
Lian Li V1000
Lian Li V1100

If money isnt a problem which would you go for and why?

I know that the Akasa is the ultimate in cooling but I am not keen on the looks. I really like the looks of the V1100 but am uncertain that the front door will restrict air flow. The V1000 looks the most promising for me so far but am unsure about the noise.

The most important features:

1) Quiet
2) Cooling
3) looks

I also have an Ultra X conect and would like to know if this will be ok in all of the cases.

Appreciate any feeback you give me. I know most of you will say the Akasa from what I have read but I really like the Lian Li's.
 
Thanks for the quick replies :)

When I say money isnt an option, when you hit the 200+ for a case I think it may be :)

You also said "ok cooling", by this do I take it that they are not as good as the Asaka? If so, will it be a large difference?

I do like the look of the V1100 but am unsure of the airflow and rattle of the front panel.
 
Origianlly I opted for the P180 until I read a lot of the posts here.
Seems the two manufacturers to chose from are the ones I have mentioned.

My head is telling me the Asaka but I really want someone to point me in the direction of the Lian Li's, especially the V1100. :)

Which is the better out of the two Lian Li's?

I know these have ben mentioned before as I have rea a lot here but its better when its more personalised.

Thanks all for the help.

Gonna be buying next week.

Also got to decide if I should go for OCZ 3200 2gb ram.
 
installed the bits in my new case and its very nice indeed. Thanks for all the feedback.

I would highly recommend the Lian Li V1000+ to anyone. The cooling is excellent although stock fans are a little loud.

Next question is water cooling :)
