IMO these cases look very nice and have a nice little LCD screen for temp, time and active Optical drives and HDD's. Do you think they are big enough for all things needed for a good gaming build with possible Xfire and do you think the cooling is ok with two fans. I'm just thinking this might be a case of you get what you pay for.

If not these if they are really bad can you reccomend any for under £50 that i can easily get in UK

I'd personnaly go for the Carbide 300R or the Antec 302

2 solid cases imo

Rugger what sets them cases apart from the ones i were looking at

 

[Rugger]

1. Better construction materials: more metal and less cheap, easily breakable plastic.
2. Bottom-mounted PSU design
3. Side-mounted installation for internal 3.5' drives
4. Quick-release mechanisms for the 5.25" drives
5. Engineered for ease of installation of parts
6. Space behind the mobo trays for routing cables
7. Cutouts for routing cables.
8. I could continue but it should suffice to say that they are simply much better cases...

 

[ryanwyvill1]

Why is it better for a bottom mounted PSU

 

[Uther39]

Agree with either Antec 302, Antec One, but my fav at the moment is Corsair 300r

 

[ryanwyvill1]

and do they have USB 3.0?

 

[ryanwyvill1]

disregard comment above

 

[Rugger]

The Carbide 300R and the Antec 300 v2 both have USB 3.0 ports on the front panel. Tthe Antec DF-10 does not have USB 3.0; they may ship an adapter with it, but I can't confirm that.

 

[ryanwyvill1]

Yeah i quite like the 300R also thanks for all your answers
