Am looking at changing from my sn26p case to a normal mid/full size case..
I like the idea of the psu being at the bottom..Looks easyer to keep the cables tidy..

So can people please post which cases have the psu at the bottom..
And if there is any problems with it being there..(cons/pros please)

Many thanks for the reply guys..

I been searching the net for reviews on different cases at overclockers for last few days...Just can't make my mind up which one to get..

I keep looking more at this one.
Lian-Li PC V1000 PLUS Black Aluminium Midi-Tower (No PSU) (CA-027-LL)

Which ever case i choose Has got to have 120mm fans for front & rear..
I don't what no more high rpm 80mm fans these days..

I was going to put my PSU at the bottom of my stacker, until it increased my 6800Us core temp by 9C and CPU temp by 4C.

The PSU is the hottest thing in your PC, you sure you want it at the bottom? Everyone who has a window has managed to keep it tidy inside with it at the top.

I was a little worryed about the heat problems myself..With the psu at the top of the case,,it makes another good exhaust for the hot air..

Am getting rid of my shuttle mainly because of heat problems...I don't want buy another case and end up with the same problems..

Thanks for the replys guys..

Am still confused which case i what choose..

In one way i want a door on the front,and in another way i don't..

Having a door leaves nice clean lines..
But then you have to leave it open all the time went swapping disk etc..plus if you want put a fan/temp controller in one the drive bays you can't see it or close the doors with the knobs on the fan controller..

Why everything got have a PLUS & NEG
