Question Case for Folding rig.

Hey all, I just happenned across an MSI P6N Diamond 680i mobo and am going to get into folding, I will have a Corsair 850 PSU, 4x Nvidia 9600GSOs and somthing like an E1400. I now need to pick out a good case.

It should around $50-100, but no more.

The more places for 120m fans the better, I have like seven extras ATM.

What do you got for me OCN?

folding rigs should be ran caseless . If its caseless, airflow is not a factor and will give your gpus much better temps thus longer lasting cards

Yea guys but I have cats, and we all know, Cats+Caselessness=Electrified cat+Broken Rig.

I really can't lock my room up. (Parents don't like that.)

Otherwise I would have a plank of wood with standoffs and a support bar.

Buy a $30 case and a Dremel. Make your own airflow.
