XFX Type 1 Bravo - XFX's first entry into the case market

Unless the sound is actually starting to create problems you don't need to replace them.

My new philosophy with hardware is this, If both your top end cards can keep up with 1 top end "Newer" gen card then there is no need to replace them.

When they start struggling to get above 40FPS in your most played games then it's time to start thinking about newer tech, Until that time comes which I highly doubt is any time soon, Enjoy the technology you have :)

Oh I agree, there is nothing wrong with the performance. I would however like them to shut the F*** up! I built my 2011 rig last year on the back of a PPI claim payout. I'll not have that type of money again, back to being poor. So any plans to sort them out will have to be done in little, cheap steps. The whole rig deserves a full custom water loop but there is no way I can afford that. First a new case, I'm looking at the new NZXT H440 cos it's sexy in white and has the required space. Then more form NZXT, the GPU AIO cooler brackets and a pair of AIO coolers. That should do the trick, buy the parts bit by bit as and when I can afford them.
 
I actually quite like this case. I would love to see a side panel and some cleaning up on the front ventilation, though. It looks a bit messy.
 
£140 could buy you a mac pro chassis and the tools to make it look like that case. XFX only make money because they usually are much cheaper then anyone else.
 
Pfffft... I thought it would be £80 at the most, £140 is a PITA.

I'd like to see some reviews of it though, it's not the best of cases but its not the worst either.
Still not worth what they are asking for it, not by a long shot.
 
£140? i thought it was a cheap end £40-50 case lol there are actually case's for £50 better than this.

Edit: HardwareCanucks just put up a video review of the case.
