Majin Vegita Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 hey all just wondering what everyone uses or reccomends for a LARGE case (cm stacker ect...) i currently have a thermaltake xaserIII skull w/ 6 5 1/4 slots and 2 floppy+ 2 for hdd. i'm thinking about upgrading but couldn't find a thread w/ most popular cases. so lets have some fun here. i was even looking into server towers to modify... pictures are more than welcome.

chennhui Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 I am using Lian Li PC7+. Nice looking and good ventilation. I added a PCI exhaust blower and a top 80mm blower to the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaKo Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 Yeah, I am loving this new CM Stacker case. Get the Axial fan option with it. Blows some serious air across the MB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Games Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 you should have labled the poll for specific models of case as Lian Li, Coolermaster, etc all make many different models Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majin Vegita Posted May 29, 2005 Posted May 29, 2005 you should have labled the poll for specific models of case as Lian Li, Coolermaster, etc all make many different models word but that would take research, and time, and a lot of poll options (20+) and then i'd get people saying well what about blah blah blah w/ this mod.... u know (your A G All knowing) but yes i thought about that. those were just the most popular that came to mind besides generic.... i'm really just looking for peoples input. and as i said i'm in the market since my xaserIII is sweet but not hitting my sweet spot. and i love the CM stacker (well atleast the pics i've seen). but yea i wouldn't buy a cm stacker w/ out the cross flow fan. that case and that blower fan will go good w/ my koolance exos1. once i purchase another mobile chip to replace the t bred my bigwater fried.

Angry_Games Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 i bought a CM Stacker without the cross-flow...then i bought the cross-flow...and still have not installed it in the Stacker lol what i mean about the specifics is pick the biggest case from each model line that YOU are interested in and poll for opinions (as a poll is really only asking for opinions!)

red930 Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 Antec Performance One P-160W. It's a large case with lots of room to work in. Excellent air flow especially if you reverse the rear 120mm fan to an intake. Sharp looking with or without the window. Stealthed optical bays and floppy. Removable drive trays with rubber isolation and their own 120mm fan blowing across them. You can reverse the drives so the cables are on the back side out of view. Here's a pic of Aileen with the Blue Storm installed... http://myweb.cableone.net/mondo/cablejob.JPG Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest burningrave101 Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 I've worked with a Lian-Li V1000 and V1200 and can say they quality is easily the best your going to find and thats why their so expensive. If your wanting a case with plenty of room then i would ither get the mid-tower V1200 or the full tower V2000. I tried out the V1200 and actually still have a new black one sitting here in my room that i'm sending back because i didn't like the added length on my desk.

Guest Partizan Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 Which big tower do you recommend? It should have plenty of room, good ventilation, not too expensive. I don't need a flashy one, like side window, led's... Just a big functional case. Regards, Partizan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
