Hello folks.

so im sick of looking for a full tower case that best suites my needs.


i want a full tower with black interior (not a problem i can paint if is the only issue)

i have 4 rads 2 2x120 and 2 4x120. i want to fit 2 of those at least.

not too expensive like obisidian because i bought 3 aplus black pearl 300 euro each and trashed them ;p

any ideas?

thanks

Lian Li A70F. It's full atx and very simple. It's made out of all aluminum so it's easy to cut up. :)

I absolutely love my HAF-X. Every single review I've seen of this case was favorable. The only cons listed were very minor. My only con is there's no external 3.5 bay for my card reader.

excuse me? I know from hands on experience that the 800D is an amazing case, if youre making out that Ive simply used a search and picked the most popular then perhaps you should keep your thoughts to your self?

Benchmark Scores They're pretty good, nothing crazy.
the rocketfish case was a good option... but i would go with something like the NXZT Zero 2.



$80 bucks will hold at least two rads with some light modding.

Not saying that it isn't an amazing case and what not BUT, he said he is on a budget and it and the 800D is out of that budget. i actually have one sitting right behind me at the moment and it is truly amazing and would fit the application perfect.

I'd like to suggest the Cooler Master CM 690 II Advanced case. You can fit 2 120x2 rads inside (comfortably) and (most likely, I haven't tried) one or possibly both 120x4 rads on the exterior. It's a fantastic case, you should really look into it.
