CM HAF X or Stormtrooper?

[Kyle]

Two cases. I can't decide. Opinions?

I would go with the SM Storm trooper or even the storm stryker. I don't like the look of the Haf X at all but I'm sure others will say differently because cases are mostly personal preference.

Nope, I agree with you mate ..

I used to like the HAF back when I was a child...
It just seems a bit too cliché to me now - as do the Phantoms.
They're just the cases people want to be because they look cool.

I'd say the trooper out of those two...

But - I think rigs look better when everything fits perfectly. I don't think full tower cases look good unless you have SLI/Crossfire and watercooling. Same opinion when I see MATX boards in an ATX case - it just looks wrong.

Out of those two - I'd say get the trooper, or the stryker as mentioned...
But if it was me, I'd be thinking more along the lines of the HAF 922, CM 690, Corsair 600T, C70 - most of the Corsair cases actually. But that's just me

possible go with the R4?



Ignore me remembered your getting a H100 and that wont fit without MOD's

okay looks like storm trooper it is. i like the aftermarket glass side-panel that you can get. http://www.cmstorm.com/en/products/accessories/troopersidepanel/

That aftermarket side panel that costs you money, or comes free with the stryker if you like white cases

nice choice

even with the cost of the side panel, i don't think it will be as expensive as the haf. the styker is ugly because it's white and it doesn't have some of the features that the ST has

I like my HAF..no complaints..got around 350 CFM airflow in it =P I mean that's just by the in and out fan ratings so who knows what it actually is..There's a lot of airflow in the ST but I doubt it would match up to (obviously) the HAF-X but I'm not sure how much of a difference it would make..I suppose it's your call on how you like the look of either
