Favorite Cases

Paperchase

Lanboy air. I'd throw in 9-10 3.5" HDDs into it and not have any 5.25" drives. Also running all 15 fan slots, with thin led fans. Saw a video of it. Looked amazing.

 

I have yet to find a mid tower case that matches or tops the Lanboy air.

 

e: it's only a dream case now due to being discontinued and only available at $250-300. I knew I should have bought it with my build last year, it was available at a decent price then.

Basically an MATX silverstone fortress with a dual 140mm radiator mount and a bottom mounted power supply.

Yeah, it's so gorgeous. Just seeing the concept pictures makes me drool all over the place.

Mine kind of already exists, the Silverstone TJ11 with the front 5.25" bay covers replaced by a large mesh panel or mesh covers instead, but also the Rosewill Blackhawk Ultra case with a side panel mod so instead of the many fan mounting points I'd have a nice sheet of Plexi glass. In hindsight, I like a lot of airflow to my components but I also like a good aesthetic to my case with some angular curves on it to kind of make it look like was developed for aerodynamics in a wind tunnel.  :D

I am not sure.  It would have to be ITX or matx , I really like the idea of itx slim towers in the style of FNW Tiki.

I cant be bothered with full towers now,  can fit plenty of power into a shoe box.

Technically, yes. One can even purchase them if they have deep enough pockets.

90 degree mobo rotation, a la Silverstone. Removable mobo tray, all aluminium construction, window, mounts for SSDs within the window area but not the drive cages. 240mm rad mount within H220 range of the CPU (that's the tricky bit with the mobo rotated)

Power Mac G5 but the size of a TX-10 with a crap load of radiator space and a huge side panel window and a mini fridge modded on the side.

My dream case almost exists. I'd love to have a windowed 350d, but with the top ventilation of a 900d.

 

Also, instead of those pull-out drive bay covers messing up the front; I'd have the I/O panel just how it is, then a small gap for a slot-load drive, then a single, longer aluminum panel.

 

Are you listening, Corsair?

Mac Pro (non 2013) I love the look of the case, if only there wasn't a huge apple logo on the side.

I want a very simple case with support for tons of radiators. I wish i could have my design sent to corsair or something then they could make it for me that would be awesome.

have you looked at Case Labs?

My current dream case would be Corsair's Carbide Air Series 540.

Like the one in the Zoe build, just like 20*20*10 cm with space for a M-Itx system with one 3.5" and one 2.5" Drive. also atx psu etc

Stuff I have I like: Moto G - Superlux HD681 Evo - Monoprice 9927

90% of what I say is sarcasm.

My favourite case at the moment is the new upcoming Corsair Carbide Air 540. Very clean look, lots of fan/radiator mounts and intelligent use of space due to it's „dual-tower“ design. I also like the Corsair Vengeance C70, because of it's industril look and great airflow. That's for the ATX chassis. From m-ATX the case I like the most would have to be the Corsair Obsidian 350D. I looks great and it's from Corsair too. However between the mini-ITX chassis the Bitfenix Prodigy has no competitors pretty much. We will have to wait and see what Corsiar brings to the table, because I think they are working on some mini-ITX chassis, since they don't have any yet. At the moment the Air 540 from Corsair is winning for me. It impresed me right when I saw it. I will probably replace my current case with it. I just fell in love with it I guess. :P

MSI Z77MA-G45; Intel Core i5-3570K @ 4.0GHz with stock cooler (75°C max. in Prime95); Corsiar Vengeance 2x4GB @ 1600MHz CL9; EVGA GTX 650Ti SSC 2GB GDDR5 @ stock; Samsung 840 120GB (15s boot time); WD Green 500GB; Corsair CX430; Corsair 350D; BenQ RL2455HM (best gaming 60Hz monitor); Logitech G400 mouse; Logitech K120 keyboard; Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
