Black ATX

Rough Draft

I'm looking for a ATX case black is preferable but not necessary. I want to use this case for a very long time so i'm looking for something that allows for things like liquid cooling in the future. (I was considering getting a h100i) 

 

I want to keep the price under 180 with shipping included which is more difficult then it sounds because I live in Canada.

 

 

Was looking at a NZXT Phantom 530 black but the shipping price is $40 from newegg at the moment so I may go with the White which is shipping for 20. I'm not sure if this case is really good though.

 

Thanks for your help.

Define R4, Arc Midi R2?

The Phantom 530 is solid too.

Fractal Design Define R4 blackout, Corsair Obsidian 450d, maybe 750d if you can afford it and will use the extra space, NZXT H440 black/red, Nanoxia Deep Silence 2, Corsair Carbide Air 540

 

All good black options

I really do like the 530, was going to order one wendsday before the shipping price went up. It just feels like such a waste to pay so much for shipping... I would have preferred the black over white but I may go with the white for the lower shipping.

What you could try doing is purchasing from NCIX( Link:http://www.ncix.com/detail/nzxt-phantom-530-full-atx-13-89489-1320.htm) and price match with Newegg for 129.99 (Link: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146106)

 

Then see how much the shipping comes to.

 

Edit: for some reason Link isnt working for newegg.

If you live in Calgary NW or SE you may want to go to memory express. They do price match and take off an additional 25% of the difference. ( It's where i get all my parts ) They do have more shops in Alberta and do online as well

I live in northern alberta, Calgary is quite far away :(

 

 

EDIT: Edmonton isn't that far I guess. I'll keep them in mind whenever I make trips down there.

They do have more stores in Edmonton, but thats still in the middle of Alberta. The shipping from memory express is rather cheap typically. However, they don't have the phantom 530 in stock online.

Yeah I noticed that. I'm such a girl when It comes to computer cases... Can't freaking make my mind up. One case I absolutely love is the 760T but you have to take the top cover off to use that area for a rad. Which kinda defeats the whole look of the case :(
