I need a good case without a power supply...
Money isn't important a lot. I need a case cheaper than 200$.

I ll overclock a lot.

What s the best case for me?

I don't think there is a "best". You'll get a different answer from everybody because they've made their choice based on their needs and preferences. Sooo........find something you like.

plenty of space for water system on one side... and motherboard with no obstructions and great airflow on the other...

I haven't found a better case than my Lian-Li PC65b yet. Couple hours with a dremel and it's perfect wink.gif

Refurb koolance with free water block... Comes with tubing and premixed solution... Comes in the ever popular cheiftec dragon style case with a window, and oh yah WATER COOLING. They carry the same warranty as new ones, and have no physical defects (those are sold as-is, which I bought 4 Exos' as gifts at $99 a piece w/free waterblock laugh.gif ). Infotech is owned by the koolance company, that's why refurbs are there and are much cheaper. This case has room for 2 intake and 2 exhaust fans and with the W/C going the hot air from the CPU almost doesn't exist.

The answer to your case needs

This isn't opinion, it's fact bah.gif

Couldn't have given him a narrower option could ya? laugh.gif

Like Dignan said, I think the coolance cases rock but from what I've heard they aren't the best for overclocking, their pumps don't have the GPH that most hard core OCers want. I don't have one of the cases though I'm just going based off opinion. (Though I have been drooling over a koolance case for quite some time...)

a case cheaper than $200???? that's like pretty much ANY case surely?

man, you could even get a Lian Li with that kinda crazy budget... i'd personally get an Antec/Chieftec full tower and mod the hell outta it...
AkApUrViS
well i would try to find a cheap case with 2 120mm fan one in front and one i back and mod it to add 2 more fan for the top and back but lian li is a best case everone talk about
