New PC case
Hey all
as I said in Slaymates Rib post, I am wanting to get a new case for my pc... I just dont know what is good looking, has a lot of space inside, and doesnt cost an arm and a leg!! Any help would be appreciated, I work in a PC Store(Matrix Warehouse) and have access to discounts etc, so basically looking for ideas on what to go for, doesnt have to support watercooling, just basically a lot of fans and something with good airflow... Thanks a lot guys, look forward to your replies!

The brand should definitely be Cooler Master, because of the bang for the buck.
For example: Centurion 590 - Cooler Master Or if one 80mm front case fan and one 120mm rear case fan are sufficient, you could consider the case I am having: Cooler Master Centurion 5- Mid tower case Its front panel is perforated, so air can get in pretty well, even above the front fan (assuming you don't put in that much drives as there are bays). Furthermore, asuming you put your HDD in one of the "invisible" drive bays in the lower part of the case, the front fan will cool your HDD as well. The more expensive Centurion 590 will probably do that as well (1 of 3 front fans preinstalled). Even though my Centurion 5 is as decent as hell, if you can affort it you should definitely go for the Centurion 580 (I mean that as a preference over the CM Centurion 5, does not mean it is the best choice).

The Centurion 5 is made of steel as well. The Centurion 580 probably too.
The cheapest Stacker (830 Evo) is 112 Euro without shipping here in the Netherlands. The two I mentioned are less than half that price.

Here are a few nice Steel Cases. If you get one with a Window built-in you can always replace the Plexi with a Mesh like I did to my Workstation
