Which case? (Poll)

[Naota]

Here is a list of cases that I am currently looking at. It is for my watercooling system and will house my radeon 6990. Price isn't exactly a problem. They all have great functionality. Feel free to make suggestions if you want. Just let me know which you all think is the best visually and overall on this list as well.

The cases are above but just in case you need to look at them:

Coolermaster CM690-2 Advanced

Lian Li PC-A77F

Thermaltake Level 10 GT

XClio 2000

lian li +1 (form the 4 options given)

My heart says the Thermaltake, but all those surfaces - it will look dusty in no time...

I've never owned a Lian-Li but it just says quality + 1 for me.

Lian-Li +1 looks the best out of the 4

Thanks for all the votes so far guys. This is really helping me make my decision.

You should wait for TTL's Xigmayek Elysium review that should be up soon.

It can hold two 480mm rads in it.

 

[Runebeard]

Depending on size you want, Elysium could be worth a look, but be warned it is pretty massive.

If price isn't an issue, I'd say the Lian Li, build quality is top notch and you have just that bit more room for watercooling.

 

[Hay11Mac]

Lian li, not much comp compare to the others lian li wins hands down imo

 

[stevebarnes15]

I wouldn't bother with the level 10 it's a heat trap,personally i'd go with either the coolermaster,or the lian li.

Plan your rig first,and work out what space you need for components etc,and the look you want to achieve,this will help you decide.

Wow that is a nice looking case. I see it comes out in May. Anyone know if there a specific release date?

 

[marsey99]

Tbh I don't like the look of any of them but I think the 692 would he the easiest to put the water cooling in.

 

[ExpertLayman]

Don't know much about this, but I can say that the Thermaltake looks ugly as ****.

The XClio is over the top in looks department.

The Coolmaster is so and so (I hate curvy front tops).

The Lian Li though some what plain compared to the others screams quality.

And that's my two cents worth

 

[Brooksie]

Don't get the Thermaltack, Lian Li is one of the if not the best cases i've ever worked in.

 

[ionicle]

lian li owner here too +1

looks like an incredibly good case, its not even in the same league as the other 3

 

[Naota]

Thanks guys. I ordered the Lian Li... Sad that I had to get it for $360 when Micro Center was selling it at one point for $130. ><

 

[rwiuviberwVFIUBER]

I find Lian Li cases to be real expensive, though they sure make some interesting ones. I never understood the price on some of them though

 

[ionicle]

its simple with lian li

you get what you pay for

 

[jiffz]

I have no experience on watercooling, so my vote is purely on looks.

I'm not a fanboy of any particular make of cases, but I think the Lian-li is easily the nicest looking out of those four.

Never seen anything like that Thermaltake before - definately not my cup of tea!

Haha I hope so mate. After the case comes from the sketchy company I ordered it from, I'll be able to review my watercooling 6990 in no time.
