Cases

Well that's cause the window covers up most of the empty space to the right of the motherboard. The 900D has a full size window and you will easily see all the space between the motherboard and drive cages.

I don't really care too much, I like the stealth look so no LEDs.

[BurgerBum]

900d is way too big

add more resiviores and fluid. fill er' up dem fest.

Then it would work for you. You can always add a logo or component of some sort to fill that gap. People usually use resevoirs, pumps, or SSDs to fill space

Yes. I want a case that will last forever (not really forever duh) but a really long time. I just think the 900D works perfectly for that. Also where do you get all your money? Did your parents pay for your PC?

I get money from parents, allowance, selling old stuff, and presents.

Wow same.

 

Do you sometimes feel like you're spoiled lol?

Well, it sure will fit everything, but the 900D doesn't look like the sturdiest case to me. My white H440 is pretty solid, and I think the S340's metal construction will make it pretty durable too.

[Enderman]

Wow same.

 

Do you sometimes feel like you're spoiled lol?

Yeah. I'm glad I don't have siblings to have to share with.

[Totally-A-Hero]

You guys are lucky ass people. I had to get a illegal job to pay for my pc lol.

[Savant]

Yeah. I'm glad I don't have siblings to have to share with.

I do haha. It's tough. I had to explain bottlenecking to my mom, that's how I got a i7.

[Savant]

Yeah. I'm glad I don't have siblings to have to share with.

Grr. What do you think I should get?

[Enderman]

Grr. What do you think I should get?

No idea. I'm not you

Pick what you think looks best.

[Savant]

What would you do in my situation?

 

My build will look really tiny for a few months in the 900D.

[Totally-A-Hero]

Hey man, have you considered the enthoo pro? Also what components will you water cool. Custom or AIO?

[Savant]

Debating and yes.

 

I find the Enthoo line a little too "gamer."

[Totally-A-Hero]

What do you mean by "gamer" I mean i know its personal preference but your talking a large price gap, not to mention Full ATX compatibility on enthoo and 900d

[Lays]

Also, the 900D isn't much bigger than the 800D and yours doesn't look too empty.

 

 

the 900d is definitely bigger, when I bought my 900D from fry's they had one next to an 800D, it's like 4 inches taller and 3 inches deeper or something like that.

[Kryptyx]

H440 is closer competition to the 450D. Personally, I love my 450D.

That's not a huge difference, how did you like the case?

[Lays]

When you see them in person next to eachother, it's definitely a difference.

 

 

It was great, people say the construction is crappy, but it's perfectly fine.  I manhandled it multiple times with a custom loop in it when the case+build weighed over 90 pounds, it was perfectly sturdy.

 

I didn't need that big of a case and I downgraded my system from a 3930k + rampage iv extreme  + 2 780's + 2 480mm 60mm thick radiators to a 4790k + m power + 290x lightning in an r4 which I'll be watercooling shortly as well

 

I like the r4 more, but that's only because it fits my usage needs better than the 900D did.

[Trik'Stari]

I'm so confused between the two.

Have you considered the HAF Stacker 935? Perfect for water cooling.

 

Or, if you just want one big case, it's cheaper than the 900D and probably just as big

I just want a case that will last forever, I will also keep the drive bays in so it won't look too empty if I get it.

I would recommend ft04, ft02, tj07, tj11, or any Lian li

[Thorium19]

^ listen to this man! Both myself and @spwath will advocate silverstone cases, as they have outstanding build quality and look great, although I favour the raven (gamery) line of cases.

I would recommend the TJ11 for a supertower case, but out of your two the H440 is perfect. Room for any AIO or a good sized custom loop, as well as a multi GPU set up. Plus, you're unlikely to ever use the full amount of drives that it supports at any one time.

If you do sway towards the 900D (an unwise choice IMO, too big to be useable) you really should do something like this in it http://www.yoyotech.co.uk/xdna-aurum

Funny thing is, i have a red phantom 410.

Not for long tho, just got another 300$ selling my legoes on ebay, now i just have to ship my legoes and go to frozencpu store (this time not on my bike, dont think that can carry an ft04)

The raven dont have as outstanding quality, but still pretty good, and great cooling. They use plastic and have different looks then the fotress, wich use metal and are more subdued in looks.
