Well, its hard to find a decent full tower with a black interior and not end up with one of those hideous HAF cases. But here are a few great cases to look at:

^ Not great for aircooling unless you pack it with high flow fans.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811517004&Tpk=solono%201000
^ Decent case, good cooling, great price.

^ Looks are very subjective, but if you get the extra fans it will be a cooling monster.

^ listed as mid towers, but they're more full towers than anything. Some of the best cooling, especially if your lucky to get the AP fans stock.

^ Great case plain and simple. Lian Li are unequaled in quality, south of the $1000+ range of cases from Windy. Cooling is good and it has all you want. Notice the awesome tool-less features.

^ Decent cooling, looks good, and matches your criteria.

Many will recommend the HAF-X, but the thing is really ugly and I just can't recommend how cheap it looks. Also the Antec 1200 fits your criteria, but Antec's quality is pretty bad with cases, not PSUs though.

mm i seeing bettween corsair nzxt and lian li... wichone has more room for graphics card??

 

[Juanchioo]

OMFG!! lian li price ^^ i think i will w8 for phantom... and what about phantom space and build quality?

 

[AMW1011]

Well, some people are very put off by such prices so I'm not surprised.

A good overview of the case:

If MM says he is happy with the build quality and materials, then I have no doubt that they are good.

As for space for GPUs, any case that supports E-ATX should fit any modern GPU, with maybe some really odd exceptions. The Phantom is supposedly rated to support a GPU that is 350mm or more, which is an inch longer than any existing GPU.

 

[Juanchioo]

ok i will get it when i find a way to have it in my country lol, it has no window but the other things i like a lot so i will get it

 

[AMW1011]

Just out of curiosity, why not the RV02? It has the window, will cool better out of the box, and is pretty nice. I realize that the Phantom has some great features though, and I don't think you can go wrong either-way, but if your set on a side window then get one.

What country do you live in?

 

[Juanchioo]

Im from Argentina... the thing i dont like the raven is the rare position... this will my first build and that would be a nightmare and secnd i really dnt like to have all tha wires coming up from the top.

Maybe they export to Argentina? They advertise the thing on their site.

[Juanchioo]

:S theydonsnt seem to have one :S but i will contact them anyway thaks!

 

[AMW1011]

I don't believe that the Phantom has been released yet, its set to launch early September.

 

[Juanchioo]

ok.. so ill think i will w8 for 2011 for start my build...

to get phantom+bulldozer+68xx+990fx chipset

the bad thing is i have to w8 with a core 2 duo+4670+nosiest case ever (thermaltake bach) <---- hate it

 

[ares1214]

By the time BD comes out, im sure better cases will be out. Might wanna try this one out:

[Juanchioo]

i hate thermaltake lol

 

[ares1214]

I can understand the detestation of a specific case, but not really of a company as a whole. Hateboism is just as bad as fanboism if you aske me. Thermaltake actually makes some very good cases. You just have to get one of the good ones.

 

[Juanchioo]

with the bach that my dad bought they made a horrible horrible job it has 60mm fans!! no calbe managment, bad airflow, lot of noise etc etc etc

 

[Juanchioo]

i have a question... the phantom has blue leds??? and if it does... are all the fans blue led??

 

[AMW1011]

Yes all the fans are blue LED.

As for Thermaltake, I have nothing against them really but I can't think of a good product that they have made recently...

 

[ares1214]

Same here, but then its a good thing the Speedo was made like 2 years ago :lol:

 

[Juanchioo]

ok ... and the fans that nzxt sells are with blue led too right?

 

[ares1214]

Yes, although i dont see why you would buy them, there are far better fans on the market...

 

[Juanchioo]

i dont want to have a noctua thing with that color (just an example), they will match up and it dont change too much if i get anotherone

 

[ares1214]

Yes it does. Better fan=better cooling, better cooling=more airflow, more airflow=cooler parts, cooler parts=ability to safely add more volatge, ability to safely add more voltage=higher overclock, higher overclock=faster computer, faster computer=less need to upgrade, less need to upgrade=more money saved, more money saved= more money to spend, more money to spend=better car, better car= less Co2 emmitions, less Co2 emmitions=less global warming, less global warming=cooler temperature, cooler temperature=lower ambient temperature in your computer. See, its the cycle of fans :lol: :lol: :lol:
