well i really wanted to get the x-dreamer II but it comes with the stupid generic power supply which i can't not use because i already have a enermax 485W. so i can either get the x-dreamer I, paint it glossy black, do a window mod and blowhole or go with the chieftec already with window.

which is better?

ps. i dont not currently own a dremel so if i get the x-dreamer i will have to buy a dremel which isn't really in my budget. how often do u average modder every use the dremel? i find it kinda pointless just getting one to cut a single hole.

i have an x-dreamer 1 and i dont like it. im actually about to order myself a new Chieftec case. but the x dreamer is nice if you dont want alot of extra space.

pfft. Order a generic case (CHEAAP) and mod the hell out of it. Thats the fun of modding. Besides, i think most cases these days are overdone. Thats why i use generic cases and mod them myself. Im working on an AT server case...dont know if im going to window it or not yet
FunkyMonkey
the problem is that generic caes all come with psu

on the chieftec if i put a fan controller in it will the door be able to close?

but the amount of work and money i put in it is quite tremendous.

personally i HATTTTEEE anything that looks even remotly like a chieftec, That case is kinda like blue. WAAY too overused.

FunkyMonkey
