The right case for me?

[irCRiz]

at the moment i have a Rosewill challenger. It's a great case but i would prefer to have something a bit more quiet. I want something that has lots of room and good cable management. For those of you who know i have a samsung spinpoint f3 which is kinda loud and annoys me very much, so i would really want something with a good hhd drive. I have around 100 dollars to spend so let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

So you want a new case or a new hdd or both?
A new case won't help your loud hdd if it's starting to fail.
I prefer to screw my hdd's in place = tool-less is overrated.

 

[irCRiz]

well its not that its starting to fail. I just got it like 3 months ago but its kinda noise.
I want a case that will be quieter than this one.

whats making the noise? i mean if you have 4+ fans then i dont think there is a case to silence that kind of noise.. it sounds like to me its not the case..its your HD thats noisy, and to be honest..100 bucks isnt much to work with.

you may want to make sure what the noise is..single out if its the case, the HD, fans..etc..

 

[irCRiz]

well the the noise is coming from the hd and the case fans and the cpu cooler fan on the hyper plus 212

if you want a quieter system, i say going with...

any of the H series water coolers..i say any because i dont know the room you have in the case.. that would probably cut down the noise big time.

Noise is always a problem with cheaper cases.
Reason why i never recommend the Challenger = cheap build construction and crappy fans.
Good case with high build quality and quiet fans.

A little expensive atm but they were pratically giving these things away last week for $90.
Fractal Design Define R3 = another one which has been around $100 on sale.

Bad timing on your part i'm positive these cases were on sale recently.

Agree with davcon.

Hax X, Haf 922, Haf 932 all great cases.

Rosewill Thor V2 also a good one.
