Now i know i recently made a topic about PC mice, now however I'm wondering what kind of PC case you're using.
I've had issues with temperatures due to the high temperature here, and now I'm going to have to save up for a new case.
It's mainly because side-reasons, this one has more fans blowing out then in, i can't correctly place the PSU cables due to being very inflexible making one of my in-fans almost useless for a good airflow.
There are more things to be added......

So now the question rises what kind of PC cases are you guys using?

I am considering this case for myself in the future:
Thermaltake chaser MK-I

I'm Using the Antec 300 case. I chose it for the price, simple look and features it offered for the price.
Bright Lights and wild designs are not my thing.
If money is not an Issue, I would recommend the Antec P-183 V3 or the Antec DF series.
Make sure that the cases have built in air filters for easy cleaning.

I'm guessing that was directed towards my previous, awesome post above. :lol:

yea personally for me it's not much about the light.
My interest in that case has other reasons

Instead of explaining them:


Easy install, tie down holes, enough cable space, huge ventilation airflow options, the list goes on.

I'm using an old case. It is a Directron D30-B, which is a full height server tower with Directron branding, but which is really just a Chieftec Dragon case. The case I used for my kids build is a Cooler Master Haf X. Each system is a different version Gigabyte motherboard based on AMD. If I absolutely had to do mine over again, I'd go with another Haf X, but that monster Chieftec is gonna outlive the human race...
