The BEST non water-cooled case

[dude#73]

Dudes im buying a pc case with no intention of overclocking)
My current picks are:

1)Gigabyte 3D Mars
2)Antec P900
3)Raidmax Smilodon

Are they any good?

WHAT IS/ARE THE BEST CASE/S FOR NON WATER COOLED SYSTEMS???

 

[realbigdreamer]

They are all good so I'd say just take the one that u think has the best look. But then again u could take a cheaper case and upgrade something else like your GPU.

Aerocool Zero Degree ATX/BTX Case is pretty good.

 

[Pooky]

Yeah dude.

You can also look at the cooler master (CM) 690.Good quality case.... Nice

Seems to be a good case

I love my 690

Very easy to use and plenty space even for a 120 (on the cpu) and a hr03 gt (on the 8800), Hard drives never get hot anymore unlike my previous raidmax sagitta case.

+1

I love my Aerocool Zero Degree.

+1 to the aerocool zero degree

if aint got water cooling buy an aerocool with a big 25cm fan

I like my 690 too, my temps dropped by 10C, really good air flow.

Edit:
who thinks the front led fan looks like a swastika through the case?

I changed it to a non led front anyway because it's an HTPC.

never noticed on mne and looking now it still does not and it is the only led fan left in my case, rest all vantec stealths

Maybe it's just me then...

Maybe it is just the influence of the evil Athlon within it

lol

The Athlon is quite comfortable inside his new case, he wont be there long though since the intel quad monster will be moving in soon

lol no love for the Gigabyte 3D mars!

Without a doubt the best air cooled case Ive had is the Mozart Tx case..I now have 15 fans installed and all running at slow speeds..Its like a hurricane in there,yet very quiet from the outside..This thing moves air !

The Mozart is too expensive,Aerocool zero degree got some good reviews,however,why no love for the 3d Mars???It's got some good reviews.Does anyone have an Antec P900 P180 P180se?They all had good reviews.The thing is,im not willing to go past R1800.00

+1 Zero degree

Ok,I need somethimg big (Not Thermaltake armour big),but something "spacious"(Big enough for some big cpu/gpu heatsink fans,something that has a transparent side panel or can mount a massive fan into the side panel,maybe a few fancy lights,a front intake fan,and 1 or 2 rear exhaust fans (all these features can be found in a package called the 3D Mars)
Is there a case that actually "moves" the air instead of just blowing hot air away from cpu/gpu's and blowing cool air onto cpu/gpu's?Something like a wind effect maybe?

 

[WiseCrack]

Well if the Aerocool's 25mm fan is not big enough for you I don't know.

The Zero cool have space for many fans. Get a cooler like the Zalman CNPS9700LED and forget about heat issues.
