i notice it is called a midtower case. are there fulltower case sizes too?
just wanna make sure this will fit 2 8800gtx's and the soundcard before i buy it. thanks.

thanks- i'm taking your advice and going with the thermaltake

I do agree, but when it comes to cooling the Armor is the only case specified for the 4x4 AMD setup, so something has to be right with it. Then again, it is personal preference.. I have a thing about thermaltake.

Ya, I personally like the Armor too but cases are so personal. He should research and make up his own mind.... tons of cases out there and I almost went with the Stacker so what convinced me to go with the Armor may convince him to go with the stacker....

Id recommend the Coolermaster Stacker 830. It is huge inside. BTW its f##king heavy

I would personally recommend the thermaltake Kandalf or the Armor. Basically the same case just different look in the front. I own the Kandalf myself and love it. More than enough room for my 8800gtx. Only thing I would recommend is that you check where your mobo has the IDE plug. In my case the cable that the mobo came with for IDE was too short to reach the top of the case(where I put my DVD drives) so i had to buy a longer one. Not a big issue, it allowed me to get a rounded cable, so I'm happy. Just something to be aware of since the case is big. Also VERY HEAVY. I think around 42lbs. I love it though.

Personally, I have the Lian Li V2000 Plus II and I love it. It has a classic look without being dull and there is enough room inside to land an airplane. But as others have said, cases are personal. Unless you are just going purely for utility, you are best served to just find something you really like.

EDIT: Doh! I missed your decision. Nice choice though with a Lian Li.

I don't have one so I can't know for certain, but the reports I have read showed that it was snug, but it did fit. I think the card measurements include the connectors.

I do think one will fit, but I don't remember about 2 and I generally prefer to have more space for airflow. I don't have any experience with this combo though so take my comments with a grain of salt.

Both.
