what to look for in a case

[vicky953]

the 600t can take a front 200mm rad and a 240 up top without modding which is ample for most watercooled setups.

I personally wouldnt have one though, it looks great and cable management is so easy with it but it is so plastic, the panels creak and make cracking noises as the components go hot and cold

our 600t graphite has no issues whatsoever in creaking or groaning, in fact since we put the watercooling in it we can run our fans at the lowest settings and have really low temps and you can fit a 240 rad, 120 rad and a 200 rad in there with ease and hardly any mods to case at all. i should know we done it on friday night

necro time!

i know i've been set on the 600t, but i'm currently going all indecisive.

basically i'm now torn between 2:

hafx- bigger, cheaper, more fans, more room for big watercooling

600t- smaller [although still pretty big], expensive, more customiseability, better cable management, better quality[?]

kinda leaning towards the haf x now [in case it wasnt obvious now i'm a very indecisive person]

Narrowing it down to 2 is still some achievement, atleast you can just compare them..

I know i'm not you but heres my take..

HAF X:

+ Takes Bigger motherboards
+ Has better cooling
+ Cheaper

- Looks (not to my taste, may not las the test of time)

600T

+ Better overall finish, Build quality
+ Smaller Footprint
+ Corsairs great UK service

- May struggle to get H100/H100i Push/pull (motherboard dependant)


Personally, id go with the 600T, just couldn't stand looking at the HAF X everyday, personal taste though.

damn, now there's the outsider- the 650d

seems pretty much the same as the 600t only with fewer disadvantages [external build quality]

still leaning towards the HAF x simple because of the extra space. I suppose in the ideal world i'd have the 800d and be done but I don't have that much money lol

yeah, i looked at your thread before. its certainly interesting. i'm still kind of leaning towards the HAF though simply because its more space for the money, although thats not to say the corsairs arent good, just expensive for a midi tower.
