- Thread starter scezy
- Start date
As per the pic above. . . .
You can get one of these: OcUK Solar YCC-62FI - Aluminium/Beige Case for £29.89 inc VAT
You can always spray it another colour with enamel based spray, also has wheels included, can have 1 120mm fan at front & 1 120mm at back, its a great case trust me.
It's basically the same case as the Akasa Eclipse 62 which costs £91.99 inc VAT
(See Marlos's pic above!)

there is nothing that seperates cases - they are all similar layout etc
pick one you like
if you want a gamer case - you should look at one with blue led's
if you want class, go for silverstone
there are a few lian li's that are good but in my experience - some of them are poorly made
you need to state budget and describe what you are looking for if you want help
cases are personal preference - people will only reccomend their own case

It has stupid PSU's
Its silly having a 550w(i think) psu or whatever it is just to power optical and hdd's and another 650w to power all the power stuff, and then claim that they are 1200w or whatever but they arent
my reply to that is.
components are becoming bigger and more power hungry and ive got the power in my psu's to power them in the future.
whats the point in buying a psu to power what you have and then buying a new g/c and finding out you need a new psu.....waste of money imo.

But you can't though because all you really have is a 650w
The 550w is doing nothing and never will be.
It comes with a 140mm and 120mm tricool exhaust fans as standard fitted (you can change the speed of these to low/med/high with a switch on each of the fans).
Now below is to buy as extra if you wish.
There is space for two 120mm intakes (directly in front of the hard drive bays) and a 120mm gpu intake on the side panel. The front intake fan spaces have a removable/washable dust guard behind them.
Obviously by adding these extra fans you're getting more cooling and of course you can give your case some bling with coloured leds.
If it's a good gaming case, well it depends what you put in it I suppose.

Thaught i might be, is the point that the case doesnt really effect your overall system as long as you can cool and hold all your kit

+1 for ATCS 840 quite possibly the best case out there
