My all time fave case still good enough

vaiopup · Oct 31, 2009

There is a particular case that I have always really liked but never got around to buying.

Given the rash of cases these days with a squillion 120/140mm fan mounts do you still think the case would be good enough to cool a modern quad system?

Don't normally spend more than I have to on cases, given my rigs are mere crunchers.
But it would be nice to treat myself to one classy enclosure.

Your views?

Good, "old school" case. There are certainly newer and better models available, with the same kind of look, including a few of the newer Silverstone and some Lian Li cases.

That case is alittle too big for my tastes but looks like it would be good for a bunch of video cards
