Cant decide between these cases

[timaishu]

Which of these two would you go with? I like that the nine hundred is small than the evo. But Im worried that the nine hundred may be to cramped and therefore the evo would be better?

My vote goes 100% to the Antec 902 V3!!

Other options are, Cooler Master HAF 922, Antec DF-30 or LIAN LI Lancool PC-K62 Black

Antec is nice...it has pretty damn good cooling..i think it was actually name the best gaming case at the time..

I have a 902 with a 5850 and a much larger cpu cooler.160mm tall and push/pull.
It has plenty of room for another 5850.
I also have the extra 120mm fan on hd cage fan mount in front of the 5850.
The 902 is actually a 1/4 " wider.
The measurements of both case are exterior and the Evo has angled plastic parts.
The 902 has excellent build quality and quiet cooling.

How much cleareance does it have Davcon? That was about the only thing holding me back was clearance issues.

Can you show me a pic of the insides? The cpu cooler fits just fine?

Maximum video card size: 16"/406mm
I have another 2 1/2 " before the hdd cage with the pcie leads plugged in.
It''s a non- issue.

Thanks for the help guys. Ive decided to go with the 900. I would much prefer the tempest. But its a good 4 inches longer and my desk doesnt have much room.

So the 900 it is!
