Hmm, title says it all. I like both of them. Anyone have either and want to share their pros and cons? All and any help will be very appreciated.
 
Solution
I have the 450D and it has all I need for a high performance rig.

The air 540 I would recommend if you want to do a custom liquid loop besides that it's pointless.

Thank you :) WHy can't the Corsair fans be used for all? Is it the bearings?
 


Yeah, its the bearings.

If you plan on using the bottom fan mounts, Silverstone AP123's are your best bet.

Oh and I forgot to mention these as well http://www.phanteks.com/PH-F140SP.html

Okay, so I am going to use thos ebeautiful Phanteks for Blue LEDs in the front, and jsut buy white LED strips, so I can reuse the stock fans from the front that comes with the 450D :)
 


Sounds like a good plan. If you want good LED's, check out Bitfenix Alchemy strips.
