New Case and Powersupply!

[Sathanel]

Hai guys

I'm looking for a new big case, but I'm really not sure which one I want.

I need one with proper space, good cable management, nice design and a good amount of front bays. Maybe a handle.

I've been thinking about:

I've been thinking about:

Coolermaster HAF X nVidia Edition

Pros: Good airflow, has window, nice look.

Cons: No handle, Heavy, Cables from front are not all black.

Coolermaster Storm Trooper

Pros: Nice aggresive design, Handle, Fan Control.

Cons: No window.

Corsair 800D

Pros: Big case, Window, Clean Design, great for watercooling, and epic cablemanagement.

Cons: No handle, very heavy, expensive.

Aerocool X Predator

Pros: Aggresive design, good cablemanagement, love the grills on top, fan control.

Cons: I don't like the window.

I think you guys see what my taste is now. Handle is for LAN

What do you think?

Also, looking for a new Powersupply. I need one fully modular, LITTLE NOISE, and one that can support up to 2 GTX 580.

Thank you!

Personally, I hate each of your choices lol. I'd go for a Silverstone Fortress/ Temjin or a Lian-Li case. They are alloy construction, light and have options for watercooling and lots of promise for airflow. I don't like bold, brash cases like the Coolermasters and Corsairs, I prefer sleek and simple, but thats just me!

What about the RV02 or RV03 as well? no handles but good cases with good cable management.

 

[PEXON]

RV02 is a cracking looking case.

None of them are my cup of tea :s

As for power supply: If you are willing to spend some money (which i'd suggest for such a crucial component), i can heavily suggest to get one of the Seasonic X series. I have the X-660 and i just love it. Besides that my previous power supply was a Seasonic aswell, they do a splendid job. And it is fully modular (yes, even the ATX connector is).

Whats your budget anyway? An Enermax/ Lepa power supply is one I'd go for.

 

[Sathanel]

Budget is no problem. I just want something with good warranty and quality.

I've never heard of those PSU's before.

corsair ax850/1200 i wouldnt even consider anything else

They are fully modular and don't make any noise? Because I have a Corsair 750 VX2 and it makes a lot of noise!

 

[PEXON]

If money is no object look at the Enermax range. The Platimax is a beast of a PSU if money is no object.

yes it is fully modular and the fan doesnt even spin on low loads and even when it does you wont be able to hear it

 

[Sathanel]

Well! Sounds nice! I'll take a look at both powersupplies. Btw. do you have any suggestions for the case? (Listed some in the main topic)

Thanks!

650D maybe? its fairly big, you can get a good amount of stuff in there... no handle but it isnt heavy and look great
