PS: I cant believe the build quality of this £25 budget gaming case.

WOO casecom 6788!
Good to see someone going for something "unbranded" its a brilliant case,cable management could be better or are some of the cables to short?

Yep, its an amazing budget case. The cables are pretty short, hence the CM be as good as it possibly could be lol and I didnt realise that the fans that where labeled as 3/4 pin, would have an horrible molex hanging off them lol, but, oh well :)
Saw this case on ebuyer was thinking of getting it looks good.
I just bought one last night actually, mums rig is going it in : ]
Oh could you hide the big long yellow cable?

you could route it under your motherboard tray : ]

you can run that cable down the back of the psu and up the boar, there is a small gap on the gfx card next to the pci ex port that it will fit past.
see how mine is routed past the cards on the left/

Thanx for the info guys. I wish I had a bit more time with the system to do what youve said :(
To do reefers suggestion is only a case of unplugging the graphics cards and routing the cable in the little gap you see at the bottom of the card : ]
by: pantherx12ok cool ;) Im hoping to upgrade the cpu cooler soon so I will do some more work on it then ;)

about time i see someone getting this case and show it to the world of TPU,this case deserves respect.
Nice clean build and plenty of power to enjoy the newest games.
Also your case is proving a hit with the UK TPU'ers :toast: You've started something, lol

Actually I started it lol
Been singing its praises since it appeared for preorder several months ago now.
Its the same case NZXT use as a base in a lot of their own cases you see : ]
Hookey Street beat you to a build though :P
EDIT: Credit where it's due to both guys ;)

That he did, I couldn't buy it before lol
Even now technically my mother is buying it! ( as sharing a computer is becoming stressful so I'm taking my one back upstairs to my room)
by: kurosagi01:) it is an incredible case for the price. It certainly looks like it should cost more.

I only stumbled upon it on ebuyer about 3 weeks ago. I didnt bother looking for reviews and took a chance.....which paid off :)
it was panther who started the whole thing and i kinda liked it so i joined him into advertising the case :D
by: kurosagi01Well he has a good eye for cases. I wish I had seen his original posts..........it would have saved me hunting for a good, but cheap case and finding that one in the end anyway lol :)

he's the one who made me buy it
it's such an awesome case
i'm bumming it right now ;D
build quality is good (well.. better than what i'm used to)
and the inside looks awesome!
oh and i've got room for about 6 80mm fans on the side (screwing them into any of the holes :D)
the same goes for the top really, if you don't have a 120mm fan, you can still screw an 80mm to the back, side or top (if you have the right size screw)
see what i mean? ;D
Mine left Chelmsford at 4 :30 this morning, will be here later.

also lulz at all the little fans :D

by: pantherx12would they cool as well as 6x 80mms though?

doubt it
by: El_MayoI always prefer 120mm fans over 80mm ones ;) Not as loud and look 'meatier' :)

That case is simply full of w1n.
I wish they sold those ever here, I'd grab one in a second just to have it as a spare !
