Hi everyone,

I am looking for a new chassis for my main rig sub R1200. I've had a brief look, but everything is looking a lot cheaper then when I last went shopping for one.

Do you have any suggestions? I am looking for either something smart with a high quality feel.
 
If you don't want flashy then the silencio. I said in another thread, that I like it. It's has that "Class" to it that I have yet to see in another chassis. But me, I am a showoff, so I get ones with windowed panels ;p. I had the Obsidian 800D, and the build quility on that is superb. Can take a beating, if you can pick it up. So I would imagine the 650 is exactly the same, build wise.

The Antec SOLO II is also a well made hunk of metal. But the Silencio is still tops for me when it comes to class.

It's not really smart. Plus you have to swap out the front fan or break the LEDs to disable the white light. :erm:

Otherwise it's pretty much identical inside to the 650D.

It looks way better imo than a dull square 650D - and swapping out a fan if you don't want LEDs is not exactly rocket science.

Down to the OPs personal preference at the end of the day.

That's the point, plain, simple, straight lines, symmetrical, stylish; smart (OP's preference).

The 600T does not look as nice IRL as in pics IMO. Too chunky for my liking. That said the 600T White is rather sexy as a non smart gaming chassis.

Still looks like a gaming chassis I'm afraid. Awesome looking case, hence me having one ;p but I dont think OP will go for it.
 
Wow some awesome suggestions so far, thanks guys! I'm loving the Corsair Obsidian 650D but it looks a little out of my budget.
 
+1 for the Corsair Graphite 600T. It is a great case. I recently picked one up for R1360, Id suggest the non grillled side panel as it has no filter on the side panel.
