So Memory Express started stocking the 760T white, again.

So I was going to, tomorrow, go pick up a HAF XB EVO.

Originally I was going to get said 760t, but MemExp stopped stocking it.

Now that they do again, I'm wondering, which should I get?

I like the portability of the HAF XB EVO. but the 760t looks sooooooo nice.

Info:

Prices

HAF XB EVO - 110$

Corsair 760t - 200$

Components:

i7-4770k

Corsair H100i

ASUS GTX 780 DCU II

MSI Z87 GD65 Gaming

Many Storage Drive

HAF XB EVO

Corsair 760t

Thoughts?

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

I like the wind tunnel effect on the 760T. whereas the HAF cases just tend to pull air from everywhere. If you can cable manage it properly, and suck enough air through The HDD cages I'd probably go the 760. If you're feeling lazy, or don't want to spend the extra on SP fans I'd go the HAF.

He HAF XB EVO is a cube case just so y'all know. I forgot to post links to store pages. I'll do that now.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

wtf man

 

Total rip off

 

Yeah. Not to mention I have a mod idea that I want to do coming up in the future. 110$? I could easy paint it white for 30$. And mod it for around 200 in total.
