Best Full Tower Case Period

ckoons1 · Apr 22, 2010

Would like to get some opinions on what is the Best Full Tower Case Period?
Maybe Top 3 to make things intereseting.

brandonwh64 · Apr 22, 2010

HAF 932
Corsair 800D

JATownes · Apr 22, 2010

+1 to the 800D...I drool for this case, but it is too pricey for a case in the warden's (wife's) opinion. But if cost is not an issue, I think it is the best full tower I have ever seen.

Kreij · Apr 22, 2010

That's a pretty subjective question.
I have an original Thermaltake Armor with the 250mm side fan, and it suits me just fine.

Frizz · Apr 22, 2010

I'd say the corsair 800D as well..

IF you force me to pick two more, these would be them:

ABS Canyon 695

Silverstone TJ10

But I really think the 800D wins hands down.

1. Corsair 800D (I have the 700D version which is also awesome).
2. Most of Lian-Li's full tower cases

3. SS TJ07

DrPepper · Apr 22, 2010

Look around and find a case that suits you. Some prefer small cases and others like huge towers. If you search around you might find one that suits you. Personally my favourite is the silverstone Raven RV01.

^^+1 to checking for a case that suits your needs. I always had full towers, then recently chose to go with the CM690II Advanced. Best case I have ever owned. Very user friendly, and has some great features. (Plus it is only $100).

how does it compare to full tower cases size wise? it is a good looking case

It is a little smaller, but the top fans can be mounted under the shroud on top, so that gives a little more room. The HDD mounting system is real nice, and the bottom 4 can be removed to accomadate a 120.2 rad on the bottom, and the top is made to hold a 120.2 rad as well. But like I say, it is a mid-tower, not a full tower, so it is definately smaller. My only real complaint about it would be that my bottom video card is only about 1" to 1 1/2" above the PSU.

This thread should answer any questions about it you may have ------> http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113623

I'd say SS tj09/07

MM cases are ok,but my mate got one, a ufo2 and you dont get shit with it,no 5.25" bay covers or nothing.Too expnsive too for a bunch of screwed together metal plates.

Fourstaff · Apr 22, 2010

MM cases are only for leet people, hence its the best because average people would think its not good.

sweeper · Apr 22, 2010

I'm still using a Thermaltake XaserII (Black/Red) case. Bought it new years ago. Still in EXCELLENT condition and cools rather well. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. =)

They are also made of acrylic. No thanks. I would take any Lian Li x1000's are nice, Corsair 800D or any Silverstone (all aluminum) full tower.

Kovoet · Apr 22, 2010

I still swear by my Coolermaster stacker 832 and a close second has to be the new Corsair Hdd.

The best water cooling case SStj07 case.
