hey everyone....

the main question is the title, also what do you guys think of this case: http://gamedude.com.au/static/prod_s...n_black_window ????
if not that one what else could you guys recommend from www.gamedude.com.au for around $150 AU

thanks for the replies!!!

That's a pretty cool looking case. I can't see the inside though, it might be crap. Are you looking for a case with or without a power supply?

Edit: wow, stuff is expensive in Australia. I know the exchange rate, but isn't $150 a lot of money? Holy crap, I just saw the AU prices of the 6600GT! That's crazy man. Is there a minimum wage in Australia?

preferably without a PSU so i can put an Antec 480 watt TP II in there....also with a window. Uhh, i'm not sure on the minimum wage, but I think $150 fora case is reasonable.

sorry but could you please answer my first question (hopefully that doesn't sound rude...)

how about this case: http://gamedude.com.au/static/prod_s...casANsup_lb_np (is it good for airflow/temps/room for upgradeablility?)

It looks to be a full. Maybe between a full and mid. The 5 hidden 3 1/2" bays and 2 external with 4 5 1/4" makes me think full.

^^ That Antec Lanboy is a pretty good case, especially if you move your case around a lot. It has very good airflow and is lightweight. I will warn you though, it is made of pretty thin aluminum and is not the quietest case in the world. Out of all the case at that particular store, I would probably choose the one you first linked to. But like I said, I can't see the inside, so it might cheaply made, I just don't know. There is always the tried and true Antec Plusview Soho 2. It won't let me link to it, but it's listed under Case With No Psu.

Cool, post up some pics when you get your system built. That case does look pretty nice.

hang on... i just had an idea what about this case: http://gamedude.com.au/static/prod_s...Hsoprano_black

it has 120mm fans which i will replace with stronger ones and a window and lots of room... input?

Lando95

If you are going to add a window and stronger fans, then yes, I would go with that case. It's just like the Coolermaster Wavemaster. Very sturdy reliable case.

If you got the right fans, it would be quiet, yet have darn good cooling.
