The Original Storm Scout 1 - If taken from my past

Loved it, had many flaws, but I loved it.

At your kind of budget you can't beat caselabs although you will struggle to get it in England as easily as you can in M'erica.

I own a house in america and visit every month, I could pick one up if necessary.

So far this is my favorite case:

NZXT Phantom 410 Series CA-PH410-R1 Red Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

I got this from a recommendation of a friend. I like how quiet it is, and how easy it is to get to all the fans to clean it. I love this case so much.

 

It's 100% better than my old case as there was a few problems with it, the old case was a dust eater and to clean it you basically had to take your computer apart. And even then, there was one case I couldn't even get to to clean it properly.

 

Edit: If you ask why mine is red... It's my favorite color.

I always wondered if NZXT H440 case gets enough air from the front. I know its super popular but I am a proud Fractal R4 owner and even think that does need more vents to breathe. could be just me...

 

I am in the market for a new case. Options are the Define S or the Corsair Carbide 540.

Agree with @Avericious. I just got a 760T white from Corsair and I couldn't be happier. The full side window is just jaw dropping. In fact I'm staring at it right now while I'm typing this :P

There is, however, some flex to the side panel but it never really bothered me and since it's closed most of the time that's not a very big problem.

The case itself is a little bigger than I expected it to be, but I'm fine with the size, fits on and under the table perfectly. It also has 3 5.25-inch bays which is kind of an extra point for me over certain (also) very good looking NZXT cases, since I need a dvd reader at times, and the 2 leftover bays are handy for some DIY projects :)

 

PS: This is where I first fell in love with it..

I hate the red phantom 410.

It's feels so plasticity and cheap.

For the love of- don't run a 980Ti with a CX, corsair says themselves that the CX is for basic builds only. Yes I know I'm running a CX but that was a bad choice made by me 3 years ago.
