good cooling case?

Forum CPU & Components : Power Supplies, Cases & Mods good cooling case?

Word :    Username :           
 

or the best case? I'm building a gaming pc for a friend. He wants a nice cool case. His last system would periodically lock up due to heat. Right now he is looking at cases around $100. Here are two that might work. If these are good which is better? If these suck, can you guys help with any recommendations? Thanks.

I'd take the Thermaltake case over the coolermaster. The Tsunami is a pretty decent case.

I agree....It's the best looking design I've seen in ages. the only thing is that it's pretty tight inside, but I have it filled with lots of junk....hehe...

The Thermaltake has the larger fans, so I'd go with that.

I have bought 4 of the Tt Tsunami's. Great case. They're very light and they run very cool.
