What full tower case to get???

[chewythefirst]

So i have a friend in work that is looking to get a full size tower case, and i have shown him the 800d, 900d, and the nzxt switch 810. He wants a flashy in your face style look in a case so none of the above match what he wants.

if anyone has any ideas give me a look.

What about the NZXT Phantom series? (820, 630, 530).

How about the CM Storm Trooper? Pretty flashy but I don't think you'll get any overly flashy cases without skimping on quality tbh.

i know i have been trying to tell him this, and trying to bend him towards the obsidian range but its like talking to a wall.

Just get him the most flashy Thermaltake case, you can find. Let him figure out the quality deal by himself.

BitFenix Colossus definitely stands out a bit.

For gods sake dont let him buy the 800D

Flashy generally means cheap and tacky, if thats what he wants youre wasting your time lol

He now thinks he will just stay with his Antec 1200 (i could have swore he had the 900) and wants me to have a go at fixing his god awful cable managment in it..... have a look at what i have to fix......

Kill it, kill it with fire, and hammers, and more fire.

Yeah thats going to be a bit tricky.
You sure he can't get a mid tower?

No, he sees my with the 800d, my sister in law with the switch 810 and my brother in law with the monster of a case "The Little Devil" and wants to go big, but still wants the flashy stand outish kind of style. you would cringe if you saw the stuff he keeps sending me to say what i think. i dont even know half of the makes of the cases he is sending me.

The Haf X is a decent quality case. Even though I hate the looks and it's a tiny bit outdated now, it's still alright. Maybe he'll like that one? Otherwise a CM Storm Trooper is worth considering, which already looks a lot better.

Is 750d big enough? Otherwise maybe the haf stacker, it wont suit most taste but it is different even if its better or worse

 

[vorticalbox]

I got a switch and I love it totally biased but i would get it again in a heartbeat.

if he isn't planning on going full watercooling (which i am at some point) then there really isn't the need for a massive case.

also is that than an OCZ PSU?
