Well this might not be light but this is a great case. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811108190
Some case recommendations needed
Ok guys, I need some help deciding a case for my next build.
Here are some requirements for my next case:
Future proof meaning that it needs to be extra roomy inside
Side window(or the ability to have one. Aka the cooler master atcs 840 doesn't have a window but you can buy one for it)
Superior airflow since I'm going to be an air cooler
![]()
Black interior(preferably)
Something that is light. Will be taking it different places.
And it doesn't really matter if it is a full tower, as long as it doesn't weight a ton(aka made out of aluminum).
What would be the best case for me? Oh, and it needs to be under 300. Preferably around 200 though. Thanks for the help guys!

Eh, not really for me.

Well, the corsair case is going to be extremely heavy because that beast is made of all steel and a little tiny bit of aluminum. And it's more of a water cooling case anyways.
No amd, core i7 for next build

and I don't really like the sniper..

All of those cases are heavy as hell and I already own the scout. look in sig rig.
I was looking at getting something that was an all aluminum full tower or roomy mid tower and was either a lian li, silverstone, cooler master atcs 840, or something in this category. Suggestions? I really want quality which is why I said something like lian li or silverstone.
Keep in mind that I want something that has very good airflow because I am going to be an air cooler

If your going with an AMD build I would recommend the HAF 932 AMD edition. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119212 Also the Coolermaster Sniper black edition is another great choice. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119194 |

The ft-01 I was seriously considering until I read a review saying that it had really crappy gpu cooling.

The lian li pc-p50 with the black interior and window was actually my top pick. But they haven't released it in the US yet. All they have is the no window and silver interior. and that dumb looking amd one.
And the lancool is steel, not aluminum.
Does everyone agree the pc-p50 w/ black interior and window would be the best choice?

I like it a lot. That one comes with all blue LED fans too I think? And yeah, I don't like steal/plastic cases at all. I'm all for aluminum

I'm actually considering getting this case when they start offering free shipping. Newegg just got them in though. ;(
Edit. Why does lian li's site say "virus attack"?

Haha I was wondering why it said lian li's website was screwed up too.
and I would be changing all those blue led's out for some 120mm scythe s-flex's and for the top fans I would use some 140mm yate loons

I will be taking all led fans out of my next build. If I want to light up my case, I will buy some cathode kits or an led strip.
And If your looking at that case I would suggest this one instead. I have heard that it is built better which is why it costs 20 bucks more. But for me, it would be worth it
