What case is best for me?

BennettWHU · 23 May 2012 at 18:51

I'm building my first custom PC and I'm on a tight budget. I've got a case to use for now but when I save up a little more money, I want to get something a little bigger. I'm using a Casecom 6788. When I upgrade I was looking for something along the lines of a CM HAF X or something by Corsair.

That case is very nice. I think I've seen it before. Isn't it available in black/red too?

Currently only Black, there is a side window panel coming for it soon, also a range of different colour meshes and logos to swap over will be available.

I like the look of the Corsair 650D's interior. The front isn't very nice though and the side panel isn't nice because of the grips to unlockit. I prefer thumb screws.

Really depends on budget, and whether you plan on watercooling....

RV03 or CM Storm trooper if you don't want to watercool are probably the best options.

If you do, then you're looking at something like the Switch 810 or Elysium.

If you want to fit a H100, then maybe something from Corsair.

I wouldn't really bother with the Shinobi XL...

I like the BitFenix Shinobi XL but it doesn't have a very good air flow.
