- 1 x 80mm (Optional) front
- 1 x 80mm (Optional) HDD
- 1 x 92mm (Optional) CPU duct (or 120mm fan with duct removed, read it on a reviewers website since the duct didnt allign with some A64 socket positions)
- 1 x 80mm (Optional) VGA


cooler master:
Cooling System
- One 4.72 x 4.72 x 0.98in front fan 1200rpm, 22dBA(Intake) (LED);

Centurion.

 

[choknuti]

You got any links to those cases? (sorry tooo lazy to search my self)

 

[vimka]

Centurion.

Solid build, nice looks, easy to work within, and good cooling. What more do you want from a case?

 

[luminaris]

I usually like to use Antec products but, Cooler master with that Centurion series is pretty awesome judging by the specs. I would say go with the Centurion man.

 

[whoooozen]

The Centurion looks like a very good case. I like the top mounted ports and power/reset buttons. You wouldn't go wrong with either case, as they are both solid cases.

Another vote for Centurion.

 

[pengwin]

ok

how is the centturion better tho?

i believe u guys but the antec has more fans

and a side mounted 120mm and 80mm ...yeah....explain plz

 

[vulefu]

Its just that feeling
You know.

Collermaster is build of some alluminium i think.
Mine is.

 

[pengwin]

hmm
the antec is steel with a plastic bezel (which i really dont care if it breaks)

hmm

how about an opinion from soneone who owns one of these cases

 

[angry_ducky]

I own a Cooler Master Cavalier. It was $50 from newegg. It's built out of aluminum and steel. It's not too heavy. The side panel slides off very easily. It's very nice looking. It's big inside, and there's great airflow. I like it a lot, and I recommend it to anyone who's looking for a new case.

Since I removed the duct system out of my Sonata II it has worked like a charm and is quiet. You can read my system specs in my sig. GPU/CPU are OCed and running 24/7 - CPU temps are 37C on stock cooling at 100% utilization and the case temps are 29-30C. I added no fans to the case so it only has 1x120mm case fan and PSU fan. It has plenty of room for my components and is easy to work in. One bonus plan for the Sonata II right now is the rebate...$75 for a good case/psu combo is sweet.

My next rig will more than likely be in a Coolermaster Centurion RC-531 so I obviously believe in the quality of those cases, too.

Centurion is fine... but go for Ammo 533... much better space and very cool design... top switches with cover are awsome !

 

[pengwin]

actually im not sure now....Tt Armor..mm VERY nice case bit its the same price as the antec but the antec comes with a decent PSU...

dunno i think ill stick witht he Antec

I'd go for Antec.

The Antec is a no-bling serious case. SilentPC users love it cause you can run it quiet. Its a SOHO case with room for lots of hardware. I build systems for others with whatever case they want. I build my systems with this case (or its ancestors). Its HEAVY, metal and bulletproof. It will last forever if you don't care about the flimsy plastic front door. The generic version with 80mm fans and no PSU is still available for about $50. If you like the way it looks, (or don't care about looks) this is a killer case. Not for LAN parties away from home though!

 

[carpcmelee]
