ok, as I'm going for an upgrade I think I'll leave my trusty Juno P3 full tower case behind.

Its' served me well but I'm board with it now, so I wanna know what everyones favorate case is!

looking for sub £100 cases only tho! nothing too outlandish!
 
what cases have those hard drives that face the other way?
was tempted to get one like that tbh.

Wow, that's a rave from the grave! Got rid of my modded P3 about four years ago after a couple of years.


I'd have to say the Coolermaster Praetorian - at least that's what I plan to get next. I use Antec/Chieftec cases for my farm upstairs, but I need a case that fits in my (IKEA-styled) living room for the machine in there.

did you have the full tower case with dual PSUs?
 
Meridian said:
Yes - I had an ATX PSU to power the computing stuff and an old AT PSU to run the fans. The AT switch was fitted into the end of the baybuss that controlled the fan speeds. I cut two holes in the side for extra fans, and cut away a lot of the grilles over the existing fan holes which restricted the air flow.

I remember someone here actually used a pic of my P3 taken for AMDWorld in their sig and I had to speak to them - was that you?

nope,
I had much the same setup, one PSU for system and one for fans and the cd/dvd drives.
 
what about the coolermaster Ammobox? they look kinda coo, anyone got some detailed pics of them?

Erm, please buy a Vento instead, ok maybe not that bad but the Ammo is not awfully good, its just a cheap shell designed to appeal to younger builders or people after a gaming case, as an actual case it is quite poor.

Sub £100 the PC7+II if you could still get one or the new G7, K60 and A15. :D

hmm
are any of those actualy available?
did a google search (came up with an interesting one, top of page 2 for the G7!) but didn't find anything about the cases!
 
Yewen said:
You can still get them new, set you back the loverly sum of £100, for a £10 case with lots of plastic shoved on. :p

And are they available yet, the answer is a yes/no/maybe. :)

UK and Euro distro on new cases like this wont even talk to me about it, only just replied to my request for a couple of S80's, told them where to put it.

got a pic of those cases as I can't find any :(
 
omg, just saw a Cooler Master Stacker 830, are they realy as for the win as they seem?
I know their like £150 but wow!
 
Yewen said:
The 830 is one of the worst cases made of recent time. :p

Side panel issues, poor CFM / DB cooling and overall just gets beaten with a large stick by the Eclipse.

Everyone who has one who posts on here says to avoid them really / regrets getting it.

The stacker 810 and original are superb cases though, just the 830 cuts a lot of corners and pays for it.

damn, read some reviews (I say "read" but I meen "I flicked though the pages and looked at the images") and it looked so cool!
