Which case is better ???

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
I want to get a new case for my computer, and i can't seem to pick one. I was thinking about getting http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811322053 but i also was looking at http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811103040 can some one tell me which in your opinion is better and why, or link me with some other ones. I don't only look for performance but also looks and preferably with some kind of transparent window if not oh well. Thanks

Those cases don't have very good build quality compared to cases in the same price range.

Meh, just grab a HAF 912. You'll be glad you did. IF you really need a window then go with the M59.

I own this: storm enforcer very good case for the price, though its right at your max

HAF 912 is also a good case I used for a friends build
