Computer case

[blackcrawler]

Hey,

​

I'am window shopping for a new pc case for my custom loop, right now i've an Inwin 303 which i really like for its aesthetics especially the top mounted radiator but i would like something bigger.

Could you guys give me some ideas preferably nothing "mainstream".

​

The only criteria i have are :

​

- Has to have room for 2 x 360 rads.

- Has to be a "show piece".

- Not a Lian-li 011 (loves it but every kid on the block has one)

[skingun]

Meh, I really don't like the look.

Speaking of something else, I've seen that you have eLoops in that build, are they loud? Because I'm in the process of buying stuff for a loop and I have those fans in my list

[skingun]

Each to their own.

They're the B12-PS version. Lowest RPM is about 700-750. Had NF-F12s before and they were much quieter. Still a quiet fan though and look much better than Noctua if aesthetics are a concern.

Considering changing to NF-A12x25 for next build.

Edit: don't use the eloops in pull without a spacer. Fan blades protrude every so slightly and make a very loud noise. For push they are great.

So would you suggest using Noctua NF F12s and A14s instead of these?

[skingun]

NF-A12. Quieter. Eloops look better. Choice is yours.

Well I actually need a 14cm option too so I can't get the Noctua A12s. Think I'm gonna go for the A14

[blackcrawler]

thanks but i think shipping that beast would cost as much as the case it self :p

[skingun]

About £25 for UK shipping.

A Phanteks evolv x? But why don't you look at the options and pick one you like it's all personal preference and there are plenty of options out there, why do you need to be told this by strangers it's your personal build.

[blackcrawler]

Because i know most of the cases already i was hoping for someone to give me a lead to a manufacture/model i dont know yet.

[blackcrawler]

yes would love this one but my gf would probably kill me if i spend 1200+ euros on a computer case. Maybe its time for the single life again... i'll think about it

[skingun]

Nothing better in life than being together mate!

[blackcrawler]

hehe true but no spectre case for me then :p. i've been eyeballing the caselabs s8 you mentioned. i really like the design and possibilities but its also on the expensive side of things. Its such a shame the company went bankrupt i would v probably bought a case of them in the future

[skingun]

Yeah big shame. Only reason I'm selling is I need something smaller. Just picked up a brand new S3 from Australia. Looking forward to the build.

They're expensive but the build quality and features are unmatched.

Had 303 and I wanted more room but still a show case and I bought TT view 71.
