Well as you know i've got my new build set up, the thing is i'm still using my old case... which gets SHIT for cooling.
So i need a new case, perferebly in the 30-130$ range with good airflow and preferably looks cool lol.

This is what Motherboard i have i should be able to order it in about 2 weeks. Sooo find me a good one

My three suggestions.

I would stay away from the centurion line, i've seen them in a pc store by me and they are really cheaply made.

so sick

[Scroll_Lock88]

If you get that case I hope you burn that power supply, the +12 rails could barely maintain a USB flashdrive let alone a computer

Gotta admit, if the design was less gay, I would buy that.

2nded, if it didnt have the gay flower sh*t on it, and was in standard white, maybe a nice gunmetal color, and a flat black would be a nice case.

Here's a case that will definitely have the cooling options you require, albeit the standard 120 in the front and 120 in the rear will cool just about anything.


Antec 300


Ever since antec made this model it has almost ousted coolermaster from my midrange build for customers. Good price, decent cooling, well built. Only downside, is cable management, like the antec 900 it is somewhat difficult to hide your wires unless you are using a modular power supply, then everything is all good :D


Best of all, it doesnt look like Fisher Price designed it, which sadly 90% of the 'gamer' cases look like.


The complete idiot's guide to making a 'gamer' case.

1. Take the cheapest case possible
2. Cut out the side panel and put a window on it
3. Remove front bezel and replace with 20 lbs of random bits of plastic


Bam! Done!
