The built in liquid cooling is a nice addition, but it is only the most basic of kits, where a nice high end air cooling will come close to its performance, especially in a case with as much windpower as the CM Stacker 830.

I would recommend the NZXT Zero over the CM Stacker 830 since the zero comes with 7 120mm fans and 1 80mm fan with room for one more... and its about 100 bucks cheaper.

I too looked hard at the NZXT Zero case. Its a handsome case with an aluminum chassis and it had good reviews. It and the Coolermaster 830 were the "finalists" with the CM winning out as being more upgradeable, as good as or superior cooling, and, a biggie for me, a removable Mobo tray.

I think you'd be happy with any of those three cases, the TT Armor, CM Stacker or NZXT Zero. The first two seem to be very popular, at least.

Yeah, the CM Stacker is superior, but quite a bit more expensive which definitly factors in. The TT Armor is nice with the 25cm side fan, but without it I'm not crazy about the cooling system...

Apevia 520-Watt PSU will NOT support the hardware you've listed in other posts. The 680W version "might" get the job done.... but I wouldnt count on that being enough either.

ok than what PSU would you recomend????

Reply to GamePlayWarrior

For PSU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] x=0&Go.y=0
or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6817103941
or something similar.
Apevia(Aspire) is known for unreliable PSU's in most cases that I've heard.

what about the
OCZ / GameXStream / 700-Watt / PSU?????
or the
Thermaltake / ToughPower / 700-Watt / PSU????

Reply to GamePlayWarrior

The 600W GameXStream will be fine for most things, but if we're going to talk about the PSU for your system then you should start listing system specs so we know what exactly to give you.

But your already on the right track since you choose 2 of the best brands. Either of them are top notch, I lean towards the GameXStream since it looks better and is a bit cheaper, but can't go wrong with either.

see the form called ultra gaming system for system specs
